The ottonello method is used to see a front view image of cervical 1-7 number. The study found a systematic examination method to find a better image through an experiment using metronome. The results are as follows: In an evaluation of MTF, when used 0.5 standard of MTF, oral explanation resulted 1.2 LP/mm, Moderato-100 1.4 LP/mm, Allegro-138 1.6 LP/mm, Presto-184 2.4 LP/mm. Among them presto-184 showed the highest sharpness with 2.4 LP/mm. In an image reading by a medicine doctor of radiology, when oral explanation was 17%, Moderato-100 15%, Allegro-138 18%, Presto-184 50%. Among themprest-184 was evaluated as the best image. The result of was a method to reduce an image repeat, patients radiation exposure, patients waiting time for examination, material and so on.

The Holographic Particle Velocimetry system can be a promising optical tool for the measurements of three dimensional particle velocities. One of inherent limitations of particle holography is the very long depth of field of particle images, which causes considerable difficulty in the determination of particle positions in the optical axis. In this study, we introduced three auto-focusing parameters corresponding to the size of particles, namely, Correlation Coefficient, Sharpness Index, and Depth Intensity to determine the focal plane of a particle along the optical axis. To investigate the suitability of the above parameters, the plane image of dot array screens containing different size of dots was recorded by diffused illumination holography and the positions of each dot in the optical axis were evaluated. In addition, the effect of particle position from the holographic film was examined by changing the distance of the screen from the holographic film. All measurement results verified that the evaluated positions using suggested auto-focusing parameters remain within acceptable range of errors. These research results may provide fundamental information for the development of the holographic velocimetry system based on the automatic image processing.

In this study we propose the novel optimization method of the phase-only computer-generated hologram (CGH), to improve calculation speed compared to the conventional method. While the conventional method is calculated using numerical analysis, the novel method is calculated using the phase-shift characteristic of Fourier transformation. In addition, the selectivity of noise filtering lets it decrease the calculation time. The validity of the reconstructed image using the novel method is verified by comparing simulation results to ideal and conventional data, and the improvement of texture and sharpness of the reconstructed image is confirmed by simulation.

Today, much terminologies such as noise spectrum, Sharpness, contrast, MTF had been defined for Image quality revaluation of radiation Image. Since development of Xeroradiography In the 1970s, Digital radiation detector that use amorphous selenium was developed. The aim of this research is to analyze physical phenomenon of digital radiation detector that use amorphous selenium. Result of Monte Carlo simulations on amorphous selenium based on physical properties(creation of electron-hole pairs) by induced x-ray are described. From the simulation, intrinsic point spread function(PSF) was found and used to observe modulation transfer function(MTF). We investigated how PSF and MTF changed with various x-ray energy. This result can be used to design digital x-ray detector based on a-Se.

In harsh environments such as fog or fine dust, the cameras' detection ability for object recognition may significantly decrease. In order to accurately obtain important information even in bad weather, fog removal algorithms are necessarily required. Research has been conducted in various ways, such as computer vision/data-based fog removal technology. In those techniques, estimating the amount of fog through the input image's depth information is an important procedure. In this paper, a linear model is presented under the assumption that the image dark channel dictionary, saturation ∗ value, and sharpness characteristics are linearly related to depth information. The proposed method of haze removal through a linear model shows the superiority of algorithm performance in quantitative numerical evaluation.

In this paper, we propose an edge profile adaptive bi-directional diffusion interpolation method which consists of shock filter and level set. In recent years many interpolation methods have been proposed but all methods have some degrees of artifacts such as blurring and jaggies. To solve these problems, we adaptively apply shock filter and level set method where shock filter enhances edge along the normal direction and level set method removes jaggies artifact along the tangent direction. After the initial interpolation, weights of shock filter and level set are locally adjusted according to the edge profile. By adaptive coupling shock filter with level set method, the proposed method can remove jaggies artifact and enhance the edge. Experimental results show that the average PSNR and MSSIM of our method are increased, and contour smoothness and edge sharpness are also improved.

코로나 팬데믹으로 세계가 큰 피해를 보고 있다. 기존 얼굴인식 보안시스템이 마스크 사용자 인식이 어려워 마스크 사용자를 인식할 수 있는 방안이 필요하다. 얼굴인식을 위한 영상처리 기술이 딥러닝에 의해 크게 발전하고 있으며, 여전히 전처리 기술 또한 중요하다. 본 논문에서는 영상처리 기술의 선명도 평가 함수와 YOLOv5를 사용해 학습 재학습 이후 변화하는 성능을 확인하였고, 비마스크 사용 시 분류정확도가 1%, 학습 손실률에서 0.2% 정도의 성능 개선을 확인하였다.

A conventional phased array system can control an ultrasonic beam electronically by adjusting the excitation time delay of individual elements in a multi-element probe and produce an ultrasonic image. In Contrast, full matrix capture (FMC) is a data acquisition process that allows receiving ultrasonic signals from one single shot of the phased array transducer element through all the other elements and captures the complete dataset from every possible transmit-receive combination. This FMC data can be used to create the ultrasonic image in post processing. It is possible to produce not only images equivalent to conventional phased array image but also total focusing method (TFM) images with improved resolution and sharpness, which is virtually focused at any point in a region of interest. In this paper, the system that can perform FMC by using a conventional phased array instrument is developed, and a study was conducted on the imaging algorithms to reconstruct sector B-scan and TFM images from FMC dataset.

Objective: To assess the feasibility of simultaneous multislice-accelerated diffusion-weighted imaging (SMS-DWI) of the rectum in comparison with conventional DWI (C-DWI) in rectal cancer patients. Materials and Methods: This study included 65 patients with initially-diagnosed rectal cancer. All patients underwent C-DWI and SMS-DWI with acceleration factors of 2 and 3 (SMS2-DWI and SMS3-DWI, respectively) using a 3T scanner. Acquisition times of the three DWI sequences were measured. Image quality in the three DWI sequences was reviewed by two independent radiologists using a 4-point Likert scale and subsequently compared using the Friedman test. Apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values for rectal cancer and the normal rectal wall were compared among the three sequences using repeated measures analysis of variance. Results: Acquisition times using C-DWI, SMS2-DWI, and SMS3-DWI were 173 seconds, 107 seconds, (38.2% shorter than C-DWI), and 77 seconds (55.5% shorter than C-DWI), respectively. For all image quality parameters other than distortion (margin sharpness, artifact, lesion conspicuity, and overall image quality), C-DWI and SMS2-DWI yielded better results than did SMS3-DWI (Ps < 0.001), with no significant differences observed between C-DWI and SMS2-DWI (Ps ≥ 0.054). ADC values of rectal cancer (p = 0.943) and normal rectal wall (p = 0.360) were not significantly different among C-DWI, SMS2-DWI, and SMS3-DWI. Conclusion: SMS-DWI using an acceleration factor of 2 is feasible for rectal MRI resulting in substantial reductions in acquisition time while maintaining diagnostic image quality and similar ADC values to those of C-DWI.
