Segmentation and Contrasting in Different Biomedical Imaging ApplicationsTayyab, Muhammad 02 February 2012 (has links) (PDF)
Advancement in Image Acquisition Equipment and progress in Image Processing Methods have brought the mathematicians and computer scientists into areas which are of huge importance for physicians and biologists. Early diagnosis of diseases like blindness, cancer and digestive problems have been areas of interest in medicine. Development of Laser Photon Microscopy and other advanced equipment already provides a good idea of very interesting characteristics of the object being viewed. Still certain images are not suitable to extract sufficient information out of that image. Image Processing methods have been providing good support to provide useful information about the objects of interest in these biological images. Fast computational methods allow complete analysis, in a very short time, of a series of images, providing a reasonably good idea about the desired characteristics. The thesis covers application of these methods in 3 series of images intended for 3 different types of diagnosis or inference. Firstly, Images of RP-mutated retina were treated for detection of rods, where there were no cones present. The software was able to detect and count the number of cones in each frame. Secondly, a gastrulation process in drosophila was studied to observe any mitosis and results were consistent with recent research. Finally, another series of images were treated where biological cells were observed to undergo mitosis. The source was a video from a photon laser microscope. In this video, objects of interest were biological cells. The idea was to track the cells if they undergo mitosis. Cell position, spacing and sometimes contour of the cell membrane are broadly the factors limiting the accuracy in this video. Appropriate method of image enhancement and segmentation were chosen to develop a computational method to observe this mitosis. Cases where human intervention may be required have been proposed to eliminate any false inference.

Segmentation and Contrasting in Different Biomedical Imaging Applications / Amélioration de l'image et la segmentation : applications en imagerie médicaleTayyab, Muhammad 02 February 2012 (has links)
Avancement dans l'acquisition d'image et le progrès dans les méthodes de traitement d'image ont apporté les mathématiciens et les informaticiens dans les domaines qui sont d'une importance énorme pour les médecins et les biologistes. Le diagnostic précoce de maladies (comme la cécité, le cancer et les problèmes digestifs) ont été des domaines d'intérêt en médecine. Développement des équipements comme microscope bi-photonique à balayage laser et microscope de fluorescence par réflexion totale interne fournit déjà une bonne idée des caractéristiques très intéressantes sur l'objet observé. Cependant, certaines images ne sont pas appropriés pour extraire suffisamment d'informations sur de cette image. Les méthodes de traitement d'image ont été fournit un bon soutien à extraire des informations utiles sur les objets d'intérêt dans ces images biologiques. Rapide méthodes de calcul permettent l'analyse complète, dans un temps très court, d'une série d'images, offrant une assez bonne idée sur les caractéristiques souhaitées. La thèse porte sur l'application de ces méthodes dans trois séries d'images destinées à trois différents types de diagnostic ou d'inférence. Tout d'abord, Images de RP-muté rétine ont été traités pour la détection des cônes, où il n'y avait pas de bâtonnets présents. Le logiciel a été capable de détecter et de compter le nombre de cônes dans chaque image. Deuxièmement, un processus de gastrulation chez la drosophile a été étudié pour observer toute la mitose et les résultats étaient cohérents avec les recherches récentes. Enfin, une autre série d'images ont été traités où la source était une vidéo à partir d'un microscopie photonique à balayage laser. Dans cette vidéo, des objets d'intérêt sont des cellules biologiques. L'idée était de suivre les cellules si elles subissent une mitose. La position de la cellule, la dispersion spatiale et parfois le contour de la membrane cellulaire sont globalement les facteurs limitant la précision dans cette vidéo. Des méthodes appropriées d'amélioration de l'image et de segmentation ont été choisies pour développer une méthode de calcul pour observer cette mitose. L'intervention humaine peut être requise pour éliminer toute inférence fausse. / Advancement in Image Acquisition Equipment and progress in Image Processing Methods have brought the mathematicians and computer scientists into areas which are of huge importance for physicians and biologists.
