Delving into the Latest Updates on Marconi Medical Systems, Inc. with Synapse

Overview

This article reviews the concepts of cerebral blood flow for the clinician involved in the management of patients with carotid stenosis and/or ischaemic stroke. Methods of assessing cerebral blood flow in vivo using nuclear medicine, magnetic resonance and X-ray computed tomography are described. Applications of magnetic resonance and X-ray computed tomographic methods are reviewed and illustrated by examples from the authors' radiological practice.

Two-dimensional fast magnetic resonance brain segmentation

Article

Author: Suri, J S

Region-based level-set snakes are a very powerful technique for segmenting white matter/grey matter in MR slices of human brain. We showed how one can apply the region-based level-set technique for segmenting the brain using fast techniques. The system used the fuzzy clustering method for computing the fuzzy membership values, which were used in the regional speed computation. Recently, the authors have developed a mathematical morphology-based speed control function that acts as a regularizer for making the propagation more robust and leak free. It would also be worth exploring how either the neural network or learning models would do in terms of the performance evaluation if clustering was to be replaced.
