  2. Introduction • Medical imaging as the name suggests is the technique and process used to create images of parts and functions of human body for clinical purposes. • It is a medical procedure seeking to reveal, diagnose or examine disease. [1] There are two types of medical imaging, they are- • Invisible light medical imaging- radiology /clinical imaging • Visible light medical imaging- involves digital video or still pictures that can be seen without special equipment.

  3. Imaging Technologies • Radiology: [2] Two forms of radiographic images are in use in medical imaging; projection radiography and fluoroscopy. Figure 1: Digital Radiography

  4. Magnetic Resonance imaging and fiduciary markers • A magnetic resonance imaging instrument, uses powerful magnets to polarise and excite hydrogen nuclei in water molecules in human tissue, producing a detectable signal which is spatially encoded, resulting in images of the body. [3] • Fiduciary Markers Fiduciary markers are used in a wide range of medical imaging applications. Images of the same subject produced with two different imaging systems may be correlated by placing a fiduciary marker in the area imaged by both systems. [4] Figure 2: fMRI scan Figure 3: Fiducial Marker Example

  5. Photo-acoustic imaging and tomography • Photo acoustic imaging is a recently developed hybrid biomedical imaging modality based on the photo acoustic effect. [5] • Tomography is the method of imaging a single plane, or slice, of an object resulting in a tomogram. [5] • Figure 4: Computed tomography of brain

  6. Creation of three-dimensional images • Recently, techniques have been developed to enable CT, MRI and ultrasound scanning software to produce 3D images for the physician. [6] • To produce 3D images, many scans are made, then combined by computers to produce a 3D model, which can then be manipulated by the physician. • Other proposed or developed techniques include: • Diffuse optical tomography • Elastography • Electrical impedance tomography • Optoacoustic imaging • Ophthalmology

  7. Compression of medical images • JPEG 2000 is the state-of-the-art image compression DICOM standard for storage and transmission of medical images. [7] Figure 5: Comparison of JPEG2000 with JPEG

  8. Compression of medical images • JPIP (JPEG 2000 Interactive Protocol) is a compression streamlining protocol that works with JPEG 2000 to produce an image using the least bandwidth required. [8] • JPIP has the capacity to download only the requested part of a picture, saving bandwidth, computer processing on both ends, and time. [9]

  10. Non-diagnostic imaging (Neuroimaging) • Neuroimaging has also been used in experimental circumstances to allow people to control outside devices, acting as a brain computer interface. [10] • Neuroimaging falls into two broad categories: • Structural imaging • Functional imaging which is used to diagnose Figure 7: 3D MRI section of the head[11]

  11. Proposed work • This project introduces the concept of medical imaging and divulges into its technologies like MRI, tomography, ultrasound etc. I will also compare the compression techniques of medical imaging i.e. JPEG2000 and JPIP. • It proposes to demonstrate creation of 3D images of CT/MRI scan from a normal 2D one. It also shows some circumstances of neuroimagingi.e non-diagnostic medical imaging as in Figure 6.
