商品描述

Breast cancer is the most common form of cancer among women. X-ray mammography is the primary and highly sensitive but not very specific way to screen and diagnose it, and in some cases additional imaging and biopsies are necessary. It is desirable to have an alternative non-invasive method to follow up equivocal or difficult to interpret X-ray mammograms, or any inconclusive breast examination. Tomographic medical imaging modalities such as CT, MRI, PET and SPECT provide highly specialized and complementary information to screen and diagnose breast cancer. More complete information about the volumes of interest can be provided by registration and fusion of multiple image volumes created by different modalities. Therefore, image-processing techniques and algorithms are needed to estimate geometrical differences between 3D scans of the same region of interest in different or in the same modalities and to register them. In this book, a new image acquisition and processing protocol, and a method, which relies on a finite element method deformable breast model and a set of fiducial skin markers placed on the breast surface for nonrigid 3D breast image registration is presented.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

乳癌是女性中最常見的癌症形式。X光乳房攝影是主要且高度敏感但不太具體的篩檢和診斷方法,有時需要進一步的影像檢查和活檢。希望有一種替代的非侵入性方法來追蹤模糊或難以解讀的X光乳房攝影,或任何不確定的乳房檢查。斷層醫學影像學模式,如CT、MRI、PET和SPECT,提供了高度專業化和互補的信息來篩檢和診斷乳癌。通過註冊和融合由不同模式創建的多個影像體積,可以提供更完整的感興趣區域信息。因此,需要影像處理技術和算法來估計不同或相同模式下相同感興趣區域的3D掃描之間的幾何差異並將其註冊。在本書中,介紹了一種新的影像獲取和處理協議,以及一種依賴於有限元方法可變形乳房模型和放置在乳房表面的一組標誌性皮膚標記的非剛性3D乳房影像註冊方法。
