The polarization imaging technology, with the advantages of noninvasiveness, noncontact, quantification, rapidity, and high sensitivity, is expected to be used for auxiliary diagnosis of colorectal cancer. Herein, the differences in colorectal tissues of four pathological types were studied using this powerful technology. Polarized light imaging combined with the Mueller matrix decomposition (MMPD) method was applied to extract structural features that may be related to colorectal tumors. It demonstrated that parameters δ and θ could reflect the structural differences of colorectal tumors. Preliminary simulated experiment results revealed that the parameter δ was related to the fiber density, and the parameter θ was related to the fiber angle. Then Tamura image texture analysis was used to quantitatively describe tissues of different pathological types, and the results showed that the coarseness, contrast, directionality, and roughness of the four groups were statistically different. Texture analysis based on the quantitative data of the four dimensions could be applied for the identification of benign and malignant colorectal tumors.展开更多

Methods: The CTA images of 100 patients who had been confirmed by pathology as renal cancer were collected and were randomly divided into experimental group and control group with 50 cases respectively. The two groups of patients were treated with iodine concentration of 300 mg/ml and 350 mg/ml non-ionic contrast agent, with a dosage of 1.5 ml/kg and an injection rate of 4 ml/s. The contrast agent intelligently tracking method was adopted bolus. The control group used the conventional CTA scanning, with a reference tube voltage/tube current of 100 kv/ref150 mas. The experimental group adopted the double energy scanning, with ball tube A and ball tube B. The reference tube voltage/tube current was 100 kv/ref250 mas and sn150 kv/ref125 mas respectively. The images of the experimental group were non-linear fused to obtain the Mono+ 55 kev single-energy images. The CT value, SNR contrast ratio of the abdominal aorta, renal artery and tumor tissue of the experimental group images and the 100 KV images and the Mono+ 55 kev images of the control group were compared. The objective evaluation and subjective evaluation of the image quality of the three groups of images was performed. Results: The results showed that the 100 kV images of the experimental group were statistically different from those of the control group (P05) in CT value, SNR and CNR (P 0.05). And there was no statistically significant difference between the non-linear fusion single-energy Mono+ 55 kev images and the control group images in CT value, SNR and CNR (P > 0.05). The subjective evaluation of image quality showed that there was no significant difference between Mono+ 55 kev images and control group images, and the quality of Mono+ 55 kev images was higher than that of experimental group 100 kV images. Conclusion: The dual-energy CT non-linear fusion technique can improve the quality of CTA image in patients with renal cancer, and it is possible to obtain high quality CTA images with low iodine concentration contrast agent.展开更多

文摘The Pressure Sensitive Paint Technique(PSP)has gained attention in recent years because of its significant benefits in measuring surface pressure on wind tunnel models.However,in the post-processing process of PSP images,issues such as pressure taps,paint peeling,and contamination can lead to the loss of pressure data on the image,which seriously affects the subsequent calculation and analysis of pressure distribution.Therefore,image inpainting is particularly important in the post-processing process of PSP images.Deep learning offers new methods for PSP image inpainting,but some basic characteristics of convolutional neural networks(CNNs)may limit their ability to handle restoration tasks.By contrast,the self-attention mechanism in the transformer can efficiently model nonlocal relationships among input features by generating adaptive attention scores.As a result,we propose an efficient transformer network model for the PSP image inpainting task,named multi-scale dilated attention transformer(D-former).The model utilizes the redundancy of global dependencies modeling in Vision Transformers(ViTs)to introducemulti-scale dilated attention(MDA),thismechanism effectivelymodels the interaction between localized and sparse patches within the shifted window,achieving a better balance between computational complexity and receptive field.As a result,D-former allows efficient modeling of long-range features while using fewer parameters and lower computational costs.The experiments on two public datasets and the PSP dataset indicate that the method in this article performs better compared to several advancedmethods.Through the verification of real wind tunnel tests,thismethod can accurately restore the luminescent intensity data of holes in PSP images,thereby improving the accuracy of full field pressure data,and has a promising future in practical applications.

文摘Objective: To explore the significance of dual-energy CT non-linear fusion technique in improving the quality of CTA image of renal cancer. Methods: The CTA images of 100 patients who had been confirmed by pathology as renal cancer were collected and were randomly divided into experimental group and control group with 50 cases respectively. The two groups of patients were treated with iodine concentration of 300 mg/ml and 350 mg/ml non-ionic contrast agent, with a dosage of 1.5 ml/kg and an injection rate of 4 ml/s. The contrast agent intelligently tracking method was adopted bolus. The control group used the conventional CTA scanning, with a reference tube voltage/tube current of 100 kv/ref150 mas. The experimental group adopted the double energy scanning, with ball tube A and ball tube B. The reference tube voltage/tube current was 100 kv/ref250 mas and sn150 kv/ref125 mas respectively. The images of the experimental group were non-linear fused to obtain the Mono+ 55 kev single-energy images. The CT value, SNR contrast ratio of the abdominal aorta, renal artery and tumor tissue of the experimental group images and the 100 KV images and the Mono+ 55 kev images of the control group were compared. The objective evaluation and subjective evaluation of the image quality of the three groups of images was performed. Results: The results showed that the 100 kV images of the experimental group were statistically different from those of the control group (P05) in CT value, SNR and CNR (P 0.05). And there was no statistically significant difference between the non-linear fusion single-energy Mono+ 55 kev images and the control group images in CT value, SNR and CNR (P > 0.05). The subjective evaluation of image quality showed that there was no significant difference between Mono+ 55 kev images and control group images, and the quality of Mono+ 55 kev images was higher than that of experimental group 100 kV images.

文摘Citrus anthracnose is a common fungal disease in citrus-growing areas in China,which causes very serious damage.At present,the manual management method is time-consuming and labor-consuming,which reduces the control effect of citrus anthracnose.Therefore,by designing and running the image retrieval system of citrus anthracnose,the automatic recognition and analysis of citrus anthracnose control were realized,and the control effect of citrus anthracnose was improved.In this paper,based on the self-collected and collated citrus anthracnose image database,we use three image features to realize an image retrieval system based on citrus anthracnose through SMV,AP clustering optimization.The results show that:1)In the accuracy of image feature retrieval,Gist feature extraction>cumulative color histogram>Gabor texture feature;2)In the maximum divergence diversity retrieval,semi-supervised AP clustering retrieval>AP clustering retrieval>SVM relevance feedback results>initial retrieval.3)Practice shows that this technology can reduce the workload of monitoring and management in the control process of citrus planting area,and promote the intelligent and efficient control of citrus anthracnose,which has high practical application value.

文摘Low contrast of Magnetic Resonance(MR)images limits the visibility of subtle structures and adversely affects the outcome of both subjective and automated diagnosis.State-of-the-art contrast boosting techniques intolerably alter inherent features of MR images.Drastic changes in brightness features,induced by post-processing are not appreciated in medical imaging as the grey level values have certain diagnostic meanings.To overcome these issues this paper proposes an algorithm that enhance the contrast of MR images while preserving the underlying features as well.This method termed as Power-law and Logarithmic Modification-based Histogram Equalization(PLMHE)partitions the histogram of the image into two sub histograms after a power-law transformation and a log compression.After a modification intended for improving the dispersion of the sub-histograms and subsequent normalization,cumulative histograms are computed.Enhanced grey level values are computed from the resultant cumulative histograms.The performance of the PLMHE algorithm is comparedwith traditional histogram equalization based algorithms and it has been observed from the results that PLMHE can boost the image contrast without causing dynamic range compression,a significant change in mean brightness,and contrast-overshoot.

文摘Uncertainty is the most important factor affecting the quality of the remote sensing image classification.Aiming at the characteristics ofboth the random and the fuzzy uncertainties in the process of the remote sensing image classification,a method based on the mixed entropy model is proposed to measure these two uncertainties comprehensively,and a multi-scale evaluation index is established.Based on the analysis of the basic principles of the mixed entropy model,a method of using the statistical data of the feature space and the fuzzy classifier to establish the information entropy,the fuzzy entropy and the mixed entropy is proposed.At the same time,on the scale of the pixel and the category,the index of the mixed entropy of the pixel and the mixed entropy of the category are established to evaluate the uncertainty of the classification.
文摘The prerequisite for doctors to diagnose and treat patients is to be able to accurately determine the patient's physical condition, which requires the help of some medical image data to help doctors to judge. At present, many hospitals in China are equipped with more advanced and complete imaging equipment. The normal operation of these equipment is closely related to computer image processing technology. This technology is a new technology based on computer technology and biomedical technology. Its key role is to provide convenient conditions for doctors to carry out treatment scientifically and efficiently, and improve the comprehensive service level of the hospital. This paper analyzes and studies the progress and application of computer image processing technology in medical imaging.

文摘Acute pancreatitis(AP)is a potentially life-threatening inflammatory disease of the pancreas,with clinical management determined by the severity of the disease.Diagnosis,severity prediction,and prognosis assessment of AP typically involve the use of imaging technologies,such as computed tomography,magnetic resonance imaging,and ultrasound,and scoring systems,including Ranson,Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II,and Bedside Index for Severity in AP scores.Computed tomography is considered the gold standard imaging modality for AP due to its high sensitivity and specificity,while magnetic resonance imaging and ultrasound can provide additional information on biliary obstruction and vascular complications.Scoring systems utilize clinical and laboratory parameters to classify AP patients into mild,moderate,or severe categories,guiding treatment decisions,such as intensive care unit admission,early enteral feeding,and antibiotic use.Despite the central role of imaging technologies and scoring systems in AP management,these methods have limitations in terms of accuracy,reproducibility,practicality and economics.Recent advancements of artificial intelligence(AI)provide new opportunities to enhance their performance by analyzing vast amounts of clinical and imaging data.AI algorithms can analyze large amounts of clinical and imaging data,identify scoring system patterns,and predict the clinical course of disease.AI-based models have shown promising results in predicting the severity and mortality of AP,but further validation and standardization are required before widespread clinical application.In addition,understanding the correlation between these three technologies will aid in developing new methods that can accurately,sensitively,and specifically be used in the diagnosis,severity prediction,and prognosis assessment of AP through complementary advantages.
