医学图像配准与融合处理与研究.pdfVIP

内容提要 本文首先针对两种医学图像的配准进行了深入的研究。用两种方法 实现了图像的配准。这两种方法是：基于SUSAN 原则的图像配准方法和 基于边界的图像的配准方法。基于SUSAN 原则的图像配准方法：首先在 SUSAN 特征检测原则基础上采用了基于图像灰度特征的快速自适应特征 检测方法,用以提取不同图像对比度下目标轮廓上的初角点。利用边沿 元对这些包含了部分边缘点的初角点沿边缘方向跟踪排序后,再由根据 图像边缘特征检测的边界方向变化情况来确定角点位置,同时剔除由于 图像数字化而导致的虚假角点,从而确定了真正的角点；然后通过粗匹 配和精匹配两个步骤得到匹配角点对, 根据这些角点对医学图像进行 配准。基于边界的图像的配准方法：首先提取图像的边界；然后利用奇 异值分解法确定点对之间的变换系数；最后完成图像间的刚性配准。本 文 详细地讨论了这两种配准方法的实现，并分析了这两种方法的特 点。然后，研究了配准后的图像的融 方法，采用了两种图像融 的方 法：加权平均法和数学形态学金字塔法。加权平均法是以象素灰度为依 据的一种最简单的多幅图像融 方法。数学形态学金字塔法是一种复 的图像融 方法。结果表明此方法能够充分有效地将两种不同模式的信 息集成在一起，为临床诊断提供更加有效的信息，具有广阔的应用前景。 本文最后探讨了进一步的研究目标和方向。 关键词：医学图像配准，医学图像融 ，SUSAN，加权平均法，数学形 态学金字塔法 Abstract In this paper, the medical image registration is at first deeply researched, and two methods, SUSAN-based image registration and contour-based image registration are discussed in details. SUSAN-based image registration :First，a fast adaptive SUSAN principle which utilizes the local gray-level feature directly, is proposed for detecting the candidate corners. This improved method can detect features, such as corners, edges and intersections, in different contrast image automatically. For detecting the corners on blurry edges, the candidate corners would include some edge points as a result of reducing the detection threshold. These candidate corners, which include true corners, some edge points and a few false points, are arrayed along the boundary trend by the method of edge element. Through these arrayed points, the angles between approximate straight edge lines are calculated to be as the criterion of determining a corner. Those edge points are removed since they have not significant discontinuous changes in the direction of boundary, i. e. the angles of them are not acute enough, and the false corners due to quantization also are removed by our method. After these steps, the true corners are reserved;
