A comprehensive guide to understanding and interpretingdigital images in medical and functional applications
Biomedical Image Understanding focuses on imageunderstanding and semantic interpretation, with clear introductionsto related concepts, in-depth theoretical analysis, and detaileddescriptions of important biomedical applications. It covers imageprocessing, image filtering, enhancement, de-noising, restoration, and reconstruction; image segmentation and feature extraction; registration; clustering, pattern classification, and datafusion.
With contributions from experts in China, France, Italy, Japan, Singapore, the United Kingdom, and the United States, BiomedicalImage Understanding:
* Addresses motion tracking and knowledge-based systems, twoareas which are not covered extensively elsewhere in a biomedicalcontext
* Describes important clinical applications, such as virtualcolonoscopy, ocular disease diagnosis, and liver tumordetection
* Contains twelve self-contained chapters, each with anintroduction to basic concepts, principles, and methods, and a casestudy or application
With over 150 diagrams and illustrations, this bookis anessential resource for the reader interested in rapidly advancingresearch and applications in biomedical image understanding.
