研究目的
To propose a new efficient medical-based image integration technique based on Non-Subsampled Shearlet Transform (NSST) using an average combination and choose max fusion rule to preserve more data, improve the quality, and enhance the edges of fused images.
研究成果
The proposed fusion algorithm preserves more information, improves the quality, and enhances the edge details than other existing fusion methods, making it superior for multimodal brain image fusion.
研究不足
The paper does not explicitly mention the limitations of the proposed methodology.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The methodology involves transforming the PET image into YIQ color space, decomposing the luminance part of the PET image and the registered MRI image using NSST, fusing the approximation coefficients using an average combination rule and detail coefficients using a choose max fusion rule, and then performing inverse NSST and YIQ transform to obtain the final merged image.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Two image sets pertaining to MRI and PET human brain images belonging to the same person are utilized, gathered from the brain data bank distributed by Harvard Medical School.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Not explicitly mentioned.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The process includes normalization of preregistered input images, RGB to YIQ color transformation, NSST decomposition, fusion of coefficients, inverse transformations, and calculation of performance metrics.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
Performance metrics include Entropy (E), Standard Deviation (SD), Spatial Frequency (SF), and Edge-Based Similarity Measure (QAB/F).
