The integrated medical information system is an effective medical diagnosis assistance system which offers an environment in which medial images and diagnosis information can be shared. Because of the large-scale medical institutions and their cooperating organizations are operating the integrated medical information systems, they can share medical images and diagnosis information. However, this system can only stored and transmitted information without other functions. To resolve this problem and to enhance the efficiency of diagnostic activities, a medical image analysis system is necessary. In this paper, the proposed relationship method analyzes medical images for features generation. Under this method, the medical images have been segmented into several objects. The medical image features have been extracted from each segmented image. Then, extracted features were applied to the Relationship Method for medical image analysis. Several experimental results that show the effectiveness of the proposed method are also presented.

가격대 성능 비를 고려할 때 저가격으로 병렬시스템을 제작할 수 있다는 특징으로, 시작된 클러스터시스템이 구성 장비의 특수화 및 전체 시스템의 대규모화로 인하여 더 이상 보조적인 소규모 시스템이 아닌, 슈퍼컴퓨터의 한 종류를 이루는 비중있는 시스템으로 자리매김하고있다. 이처럼 클러스터시스템 개발의 전반적인 방향이 대규모화를 지향하는 점을 고려할 때, 각 구성 요소의 무결성, 즉 안정성 점검은 시스템의 정상적인 운영을 위해서 중요한 부분이다. 본 논문에서는 클러스터시스템을 구성하는 각 계산노드의 메모리의 이상 유무을 관리 서버 측면에서 종합적으로 진단하기 위한 관리 도구의 개발을 다루고 있다.

In this study, we are using a computer tomography image of the abdomen, as an experimental linear research for the image of the fatty liver patients texture features analysis and computer-aided diagnosis system of implementation using the ROC curve analysis, from the computer tomography image. We tried to provide an objective and reliable diagnostic information of fatty liver to the doctor. Experiments are usually a fatty liver, via the wavelet transform of the abdominal computed tomography images are configured with the experimental image section, shows the results of statistical analysis on six parameters indicating a feature value of the texture. As a result, the entropy, average luminance, strain rate is shown a relatively high recognition rate of 90% or more, the control also, flatness, uniformity showed relatively low recognition rate of about 70%. ROC curve analysis of six parameters are all shown to 0.900 (p = 0.0001) or more, showed meaningful results in the recognition of the disease. Also, to determine the cut-off value for the prediction of disease six parameters. These results are applicable from future abdominal computed tomography images as a preliminary diagnostic article of diseases automatic detection and eventual diagnosis.

Nowadays, gastropathy is a common disease. As endoscopic equipment are developed and used widely, it is possible to provide a large number of endoscopy images. Computer-aided Diagnosis (CADx) systems aim at helping physicians to identify possibly malignant abnormalities more accurately. In this paper, we present a CADx system to detect and classify the abnormalities of gastric lesions which include bleeding, ulcer, neuroendocrine tumor and cancer. We used an Inception module based deep learning model. And we used data augmentation for learning. Our preliminary results demonstrated promising potential for automatically labeled region of interest for endoscopy doctors to focus on abnormal lesions for subsequent targeted biopsy, with Az values of Receiver Operating Characteristic(ROC) curve was 0.83. The proposed CADx system showed reliable performance.

본 연구는 와상환자에게 자주 발생하는 낙상, 욕창, 불면증을 영상기술을 통해 인식하여 섬망의 조기진단 모형을 구현한다. 실시간 모니터링을 통해 섬망 잠재환자를 선별하고 집중적인 관리와 치료로 이어질 수 있도록 간호인력을 보조하는 데 주된 목적을 두고 있다. 과활동형 섬망은 파생위험 중 하나인 낙상과, 저활동형 섬망은 원인 요소인 욕창과 묶어 자세인식을 통해 판정한다. 또한 주로 밤에 악화되는 섬망의 특성을 고려해 눈 깜빡임을 통한 불면증 검사를 추가로 반영하였다. 낙상과 욕창을 섬망과 묶어 융복합적인 위험예측 시스템을 구축함과 동시에, 기존의 섬망 사정도구들이 지니는 시공간적 제약을 개선함으로써 간호인력의 부담을 덜어줄 것으로 기대된다.

In this study, texture feature analysis (TFA) algorithm to automatic recognition of liver disease suggests by utilizing computed tomography (CT), by applying the algorithm computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) design. Proposed the performance of each algorithm was to comparison and evaluation. In the HCC image, set up region of analysis (ROA, window size was $40{\times}40$ pixels) and by calculating the figures for TFA algorithm of the six parameters (average gray level, average contrast, measure of smoothness, skewness, measure of uniformity, entropy) HCC recognition rate were calculated. As a result, TFA was found to be significant as a measure of HCC recognition rate. Measure of uniformity was the most recognition. Average contrast, measure of smoothness, and skewness were relatively high, and average gray level, entropy showed a relatively low recognition rate of the parameters. In this regard, showed high recognition algorithms (a maximum of 97.14%, a minimum of 82.86%) use the determining HCC imaging lesions and assist early diagnosis of clinic. If this use to therapy, the diagnostic efficiency of clinical early diagnosis better than before. Later, after add the effective and quantitative analysis, criteria research for generalized of disease recognition is needed to be considered.

The medical information system is an effective medical diagnosis assistance system which offers an environment in which medial images and diagnosis information can be shared. However, this system can only stored and transmitted information without other functions. To resolve this problem and to enhance the efficiency of diagnostic activities, a medical image classification and retrieval system is necessary. The medical image classification and retrieval system can improve efficiency in a medical diagnosis by providing disease-related images and can be useful in various medical practices by checking diverse cases. However, it is difficult to understand the meanings contained in images because the existing image classification and retrieval system has handled superficial information only. Therefore, a medical image classification system which can classify medical images by analyzing the relation among the elements of the image as well as the superficial information has been required. In this paper, we propose the method for learning and classification of brain MRI, in which the superficial information as well as the spatial information extracted from images are used. The superficial information of images, which is color, shape, etc., is called low-level image information and the logical information of the image is called high-level image information. In extracting both low-level and high-level image information in this paper, the anatomical names and structure of the brain have been used. The low-level information is used to give an anatomical name in brain images and the high-level image information is extracted by analyzing the relation among the anatomical parts. Each information is used in learning and classification. In an experiment, the MRI of the brain including disease have been used.

Diffuse thyroid disease has ambiguous diagnostic criteria and many errors occur according to the subjective diagnosis of skilled practitioners. If image processing technology is applied to ultrasound images, quantitative data is extracted, and applied to a computer auxiliary diagnostic system, more accurate and political diagnosis is possible. In this paper, 19 parameters were extracted by applying the Gray level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM) algorithm to ultrasound images classified as normal, mild, and moderate in patients with thyroid disease. Using these parameters, an artificial neural network (ANN) was applied to analyze diffuse thyroid ultrasound images. The final classification rate using ANN was 96.9%. Using the results of the study, it is expected that errors caused by visual reading in the diagnosis of thyroid diseases can be reduced and used as a secondary means of diagnosing diffuse thyroid diseases.

This paper presents a CAD (Computer-Aided Diagnosis) system or detection of breast cancer, which is composed of personal computer, X-ray film scanner, high resolution display and application softwares. There are three major algorithms implemented in the application software. The irst algorithm is the adaptive enhancement of the digitized X-ray mammograms based on the first derivative and the local statistics. The second one is to detect the clustered microcalcifications by using the statistical texture analysis, and the third one is the classification of the clustered microcalcifications as malignant or benign by using the shape analysis. These algorithms were verified by real experiments.
