In this paper, a medical image processing system was designed and implemented for morphometric and functional analysis of a human brain. The system is composed of image registration, ROI(region of interest) analysis, functional analysis, image visualization, 3D medical image database management system(DBMS), and database. The software processes an anatomical and functional image as input data, and provides visual and quantitative results. Input data and intermediate or final output data are stored to the database as several data types by the DBMS for other further image processing. In the experiment, the ROI analysis, for a normal, a tumor, a Parkinson's decease, and a depression case, showed that the system is useful for morphometric and functional analysis of a human brain.

This research deals with a problem of reconstructing 3D surface structures from their 2D projections, which is an important research topic in computer vision. In order to provide robust reconstruction algorithm, that is reliable even in the presence of uncertainty in the range images, we first present a detailed model and analysis of several error sources and their effects on measuring three-dimensional surface properties using the space encoded range imaging technique. Our approach has two key elements. The first is the error modeling for the space encoding range sensor and its propagation to the 3D surface reconstruction problem. The second key element in our approach is the algorithm for removing outliers in the range image. Such analyses, to our knowledge, have never attempted before. Experimental results show that our approach is significantly reliable.

In this paper, we propose a new algorithm that obtains the surfac eorientation of the texture image using structural approaches. The proposed method showed that structural approaches can be effectively used in 3-D analysis of textures as well as description and segmentation without additional information. By examining fourier power spectrum of the texture image, we detemine the tilt of the textured surface. Then, 1-D projection information of the texture in the obtained tilt direction is used to compute the slant. Using the obtained information, we can compute the vanishing point, and rearrange the textured surface with lines converging to the vanishing point and lines perpendicular to the tilt direction. In the experimental results, we have ascertained the proposed algorithm can make a rpecise 3-D analysis of structural textures.

With the rapid development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology, there is an increasing variety of methods for creating 3D models. These include innovations such as text-only generation, 2D images to 3D models, and combining images with cue words. Each of these methods has unique advantages, opening up new possibilities in the field of 3D modeling. The purpose of this study is to explore and summarize these methods in-depth, providing researchers and practitioners with a comprehensive perspective to understand the potential value of these methods in practical applications. Through a comprehensive analysis of pure text generation, 2D images to 3D models, and images with cue words, we will reveal the advantages and disadvantages of the various methods, as well as their applicability in different scenarios. Ultimately, this study aims to provide a useful reference for the future direction of AI modeling and to promote the innovation and progress of 3D model generation technology.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to determine the reliability of lower limb joint angles computed with the software ImageJ during jumping movements. Background: Kinematics is the study of bodies in motion without regard to the forces or torques that may produce the motion. The most common method for collecting motion data uses an imaging and motion-caption system to record the 2D or 3D coordinates of markers attached to a moving object, followed by manual or automatic digitizing software. Above all, passive optical motion capture systems (e.g. Vicon system) have been regarded as the gold standards for collecting motion data. On the other hand, ImageJ is used widely for an image analysis as free software, and can collect the 2D coordinates of markers. Although much research has been carried out into the utilizations of the ImageJ software, little is known about their reliability. Method: Seven healthy female students participated as the subject in this study. Seventeen reflective markers were attached on the right and left lower limbs to measure two and three-dimensional joint angular motions. Jump performance was recorded by ten-vicon camera systems (250Hz) and one digital video camera (240Hz). The joint angles of the ankle and knee joints were calculated using 2D (ImageJ) and 3D (Vicon-MX) motion data, respectively. Results: Pearson's correlation coefficients between the two methods were calculated, and significance tests were conducted (${\alpha}=1%$). Correlation coefficients between the two were over 0.98. In Vicon-MX and ImageJ, there is no systematic error by examination of the validity using the Bland-Altman method, and all data are in the 95% limits of agreement. Conclusion: In this study, correlation coefficients are generally high, and the regression line is near the identical line. Therefore, it is considered that motion analysis using ImageJ is a useful tool for evaluation of human movements in various research areas. Application: This result can be utilized as a practical tool to analyze human performance in various fields.

This paper presents an experimental system, where an object extracted from an image sequence is embedded into the desired position in a scene. First, a moving object is detected and the 3-D structure is obtained by SFM analysis of comer trajectories. We constrained the motion to translational motion only. Extracted objects are classified by matching with 3-D models and then the structure of the occluded part is restored. Camera calibration is performed for the background scene which will embed the object. Finally, the object is embedded into the scene. In the experiments, we used synthetic image sequences generated with OpenGL library for easy evaluation of the 3-D structure estimation.

In this study, we perform 3-D reconstruction of human proximal femur from DICOM files by using voxel mesh algorithm. After 3-D reconstruction, the model converted to Finite Element model which developed for automatically making not only 3-D geometrical model but also FE model from medical image dataset. During this job, trabecular pattern, one of characteristic of human bone can be added to the model by means of giving it's own elastic property calculated from intensity in CT scanned image to the each voxel. And then another model is made from same image dataset which have two material properties - one corresponds to cortical bone, another to trabecular bone. Finally, validity of voxel mesh technique is verified through comparing results of FE analysis, free vibration and stress analysis.

Purpose: To improve the image quality in positron emission tomography (PET), the attenuation correction technique based on the computed tomography (CT) data is important process. However, the artifact is caused by metal material during PET/CT scan, and the image quality is degraded. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to evaluate image quality according to with and without iterative metal artifact reduction (iMAR) algorithm using customized 3D printing phantom. Materials and Methods: The Hoffman and Derenzo phantoms were designed. To protect the gamma ray transmission and express the metal portion, lead substance was located to the surface. The SiPM based PET/CT was used for acquisition of PET images according to application with and without iMAR algorithm. The quantitative methods were used by signal to noise ratio (SNR), coefficient of variation (COV), and contrast to noise ratio (CNR). Results and Discussion: The results shows that the image quality applying iMAR algorithm was higher 1.15, 1.19, and 1.11 times than image quality without iMAR algorithm for SNR, COV, and CNR. Conclusion: In conclusion, the iMAR algorithm was useful for improvement of image quality by reducing the metal artifact lesion.

3차원 영상 해석 기법에 의해 구해진 DEM(Digital Elevation Map)을 정량적으로 평가하는 것은 영상 해석 기법의 유효성을 검증하기 위해 매우 중요하다. 본 논문에서는 모의 영상 제작에 의한 3차원 재구성 과정의 새로운 정량적 평가 방법을 제안하였다. 제안된 방법은 미리 확보된 DEM과 정사영상(ortho-image)을 가상의 실제 값(pseudo ground truth)으로 가정한 것에 의한 것이다. 제안된 방법의 과정은 그래픽스에서 사용되는 ray tracing 알고리즘을 구성하여 가상의 실제 값에 적용함으로서 원하는 시점으로부터의 한 쌍의 모의 영상을 제작하는 것으로부터 시작된다. 제작된 모의 영상 쌍으로부터 구해진 DEM을 가상의 실제 값과 비교하면 구해진 DEM의 정량적인 오차 분석이 가능하여, 적용된 3차원 영상 해석 기법의 유효성이 평가될 수 있다. 제안된 평가 방법의 타당성을 검증하기 위해, 정량적 및 정성적인 실험이 수행되었다. 이를 위해 발생되는 모의 영상이 실제 형상을 재현하는 정도를 정량적인 수치로서 구하여 제안된 방법을 타당성을 입증하였다. 또한 정합창의 크기 변화에 따른 DEM의 정확도를 제안된 평가 방법에 의해 실험하였다. 이러한 실험 결과가 예견된 결과와 일치함에 의해 제안된 평가 방법의 타당성을 정성적으로도 명백히 증명하였다.
