Fast retrieval using organ shapes is crucial in medical image databases since shape is a clinically prominent feature. In this paper, we propose that 2-D shapes in medical image da...
In this paper, we propose a novel compression scheme for medical images with extended bit depth. Our scheme efficiently utilizes the VOI (value of interest) settings of the medica...
A general geometrical framework for image processing is presented. We consider intensity images as surfaces in the (x I) space. The image is thereby a two dimensional surface in t...
With the increasing number of medical devices and of accidents resulting from them being used in isolation in a hectic operating room, there is a trend towards integrating such de...
