A Critical Examination of Two Specific Approaches Used to Characterize Medical Images: i) Projection-based Descriptors for Image Retrieval and ii) Estimating Fractal Dimensions of Discrete Sets
(University of Waterloo, 2022-08-31)In this thesis we provide a critical examination of two methods which are used to characterize medical images. Accordingly, this thesis is split into two main parts. First, we take a look at the problem of designing ... -
Dynamic Magnetic Resonance Elastography
(University of Waterloo, 2010-01-20)Magnetic Resonance Elastography (MRE) is a medical imaging technique used to generate a map of tissue elasticity. The resulting image is known as an elastogram, and gives a quantitative measure of stiffness in the examined ... -
Mutual Information Based Methods to Localize Image Registration
(University of Waterloo, 2005)Modern medicine has become reliant on medical imaging. Multiple modalities, e. g. magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), computed tomography (CT), etc. , are used to provide as much information about the patient as ...
