摘要:
A method for processing image data includes inputting image data, determining a plurality of quadrature filter pairs based on filter parameter values to detect features of interest in the image data, applying the quadrature filter pairs to the image data to obtain a set of filter responses, and processing the filter responses to obtain the features of interest in the image data.
摘要:
A method and system for structure enhancement and noise reduction of medical images using adaptive filtering is disclosed. The method utilizes feature estimation methods to determine multiple feature values for each pixel in an input image. Each pixel is then filtered using a filter type selected based on the feature values for that pixel.
摘要:
A set of image-space data is reconstructed from a set of k-space data. The set of image-space data is generated by minimizing a cost functional by an iterative non-linear conjugate gradient process. The iterative process may be accelerated by introducing k-space weighting to the cost functional. With proper choice of k-space weighting, a block-Toeplitz matrix is generated which permits use of Fast Fourier Transform techniques. An image is rendered from the set of image-space data.

For resonance image data of an imaged subject, a method that first detects and estimates the dominant motions of k-space data (i.e., the motion vectors) and then constructs a graphical model for each estimated motion vector. The segments of the k-space that are determined to be corrupted by motion are restored by minimizing the energy associated with the corresponding graphical model. Consequently, the MR image of the imaged subject becomes free of motion artifacts.

Certain exemplary embodiments can comprise a method, which can comprise providing machine instructions adapted to render a final enhanced image of an object based upon a final enhanced set of data. The final enhanced set of data can be derived from a detected set of data obtained from an imaging device, such as a medical imaging device.

摘要:
A reconstructed image is rendered from a set of MRI data by first estimating an image with an area which does not contain artifacts or has an artifact with a relative small magnitude. Corresponding data elements in the estimated image and a trial image are processed, for instance by multiplication, to generate an intermediate data set. The intermediate data set is transformed and minimized iteratively to generate a reconstructed image that is free or substantially free of artifacts. In one embodiment a Karhunen-Loeve Transform (KLT) is used. A sparsifying transformation may be applied to generate the reconstructed image. The sparsifying transformation may be also not be applied.
摘要:
A system and methods to deblend seismic data from a plurality of sources and received by a plurality of sensors as shot gathers are disclosed. The deblending is performed by a Mutual Interdependence Analysis Method to separate contributions of different shots. Deblending is also performed by applying a measure of coherence in parallel data domains such as Common Shot Gather and Common Midpoint. Deblending is also achieved by using the hyperbolic nature of seismic data in the common midpoint domain. Deblended signals are estimated and are applied to create a seismic image. Also, Bergman iteration based migration is applied directly on the blended seismic shot gathers without first deblending as an alternative method. The methods are applied in seismic imaging for exploration of natural resources.
摘要:
A reconstructed image is rendered of a patient by a processor from a set of undersampled MRI data by first subtracting two repetitions of the acquired data in k-space to create a third dataset. The processor reconstructs the image by minimizing an objective function under a constraint related to the third dataset, wherein the objective function includes applying a Karhunen-Loeve Transform (KLT) to a temporal dimension of data. The objective function under the constraint is expressed as arg minf{∥φ(f)∥1 subject to ∥Af−y∥2≦ε}. The reconstructed image is an angiogram which may be a 4D angiogram. The angiogram is used to diagnose a vascular disease.
