Image Processing Techniques for Medical Imaging

Module 1: Introduction and Digital Image Fundamentals


1. Explain the fundamental steps involved in digital image processing and discuss their
relevance to medical imaging.
2. Describe the process of image sampling and quantization. How do these processes affect the
quality of medical images?
3. Discuss the concepts of neighbors, connectivity, and distance measures between pixels.
Provide examples of how these relationships are used in medical imaging.
Module 2: Image Enhancement in Medical Imaging
1. Explain the basic gray-level transformations used in image enhancement. How are these
transformations applied in medical imaging?
2. Describe the process of histogram processing and its significance in enhancing medical
images.
3. Compare and contrast smoothing and sharpening spatial filters. Provide examples of their
applications in medical imaging.
Module 3: Image Restoration
1. Discuss the different noise models encountered in medical imaging. How do mean filters and
order statistics filters help in noise reduction?
2. Explain the principles of adaptive filtering and its advantages in restoring medical images.
3. Describe the process and applications of Weiner filtering in medical image restoration.
Module 4: Image Compression and Segmentation
1. Explain the fundamentals of image compression and the importance of error-free compression
in medical imaging.
2. Describe the JPEG2000 compression standard and its advantages over previous standards in
medical imaging.
3. Discuss the techniques used for segmentation of skin lesions in medical images. How do these
techniques improve diagnostic accuracy?
Module 5: Representation and Description, and Recognition in Medical Imaging
1. Explain the use of boundary descriptors and regional descriptors in the representation of
medical images.
2. Discuss the role of principal components in the description of medical images. Provide
examples of their applications.
3. Describe the decision-theoretic and structural methods used in object recognition. How are
these methods applied in medical image analysis?
Module 6: Case Studies
1. Provide an overview of the image processing toolbox and its applications in medical imaging.
2. Describe the practice of image processing in a clinical setting. How do various image
processing techniques contribute to patient care?
3. Design a case study to evaluate the impact of image processing techniques on the diagnosis of
a specific medical condition (e.g., skin lession). What metrics would you use to measure the
outcomes?
