0:00:13i think is to come
0:00:14"'cause" to come here if you can still hear me from here
0:00:17a a small enough
0:00:18room
0:00:19should be easy
0:00:21so
0:00:23a medical imaging an image analysis uh
0:00:26a really is uh
0:00:28it a topic which is so
0:00:29very widely used in the routine clinical practise these days and they especially image acquisition part has a revolutionised the
0:00:35might is in a uh today
0:00:37uh
0:00:38a probably out of a of that the X rays are being with us from more than a one hundred
0:00:42years and that
0:00:43uh
0:00:44first of accidental a medical image of of of missus run again
0:00:47uh uh was not in a ninety five
0:00:50and uh after that the right of different the a you mean you wanna only this sorry there exist that
0:00:55but is uh i no x-ray ct was magnetic resonance imaging with a was that are emission tomography
0:01:00with a single photon shouldn't
0:01:02no tomography with optical coherence tomography
0:01:05and that out of similar
0:01:07more these which are used to really widely and uh
0:01:10and they them many ways uh have changed the way how physicians do the madison
0:01:15and that many ways a you know the physicians are virtually
0:01:18unable these days uh do uh function as the used to
0:01:21uh even ten or fifteen years ago
0:01:25the an existence or medical imaging cut is really heavily depend then on the advances in the signal processing and
0:01:32that that's why V be invited to a present here
0:01:35and to to string some the ties between the signal processing community in the medical imaging community
0:01:40would the ability uh yeah to image in people biological structures is uh uh uh true dependent on the signal
0:01:46processing the the signal processing is making a
0:01:49the the in a blink uh engines uh you know behind the scenes to get the images uh i in
0:01:54two D three D four D and and a five D routinely these day
0:01:58so
0:01:59the three D image is probably obvious or at is it's a three-dimensional volumetric image which we get
0:02:04the for D maybe a little a little tricky
0:02:06so if you imagine you know a a beating heart uh that's a three dimensional object which are has the
0:02:11force the this time
0:02:13and uh now you maybe even trickier able to five B may mean
0:02:16so imagine the beating heart uh which is a four dimensional uh and to the
0:02:20and then you do the imaging over time for example every week on every day and you could the films
0:02:25the you know the imaging
0:02:26and that that's probably uh
0:02:28the suspect to dimensionality
0:02:30uh how far you typically get older you can think about that combining multiple of D imaging can images and
0:02:36the and the go to the higher D's uh you know and that the that matter
0:02:40there are two uh
0:02:42main ways how you can i didn't you can acquired the images
0:02:45uh
0:02:46maybe one of those uh
0:02:47one possible distinguishing fact would be very are rising ionising or non housing addition
0:02:53X ray being the ionising radiation of course uh for example E um
0:02:57you know i'll just some big not ionising
0:02:59still
0:03:00or you may have passive if listening to signals like a
0:03:03they don't so i think a your you're more like you was uh uh in some ways and listening to
0:03:07do the results are like in M mr
0:03:10let's talk a little bit of bottles individual imaging modalities uh
0:03:13and uh
0:03:15you know one of them maybe maybe do to
0:03:18one a very exciting ones of course is the x-ray ct which is very routinely used for three D and
0:03:23four D uh imaging
0:03:25and that the image a
0:03:27reconstruction the the
0:03:29formation of the image is heavily depend then on the radon transform and and similar transform which you can do
0:03:35oh so the image reconstruction is not from projections and uh it's uh
0:03:39oh obtain from their you think x-ray beam
0:03:41there are many advanced the reconstruction techniques and of you hear about the some of them today
0:03:46uh from a michael or and and you rang
0:03:49uh including the multi beam scenarios and than found beam scenarios and someone
0:03:55the recent recent uh x-ray imaging is combining multiple X source is a multiple x-ray detectors
0:04:01and that
0:04:02those uh source is and the text as our day thing in the uh a very high speed around the
0:04:06body was about point to eight
0:04:09i think is the highest the current speed the available in the in the commercial C Ds as the extra
0:04:14scanning speed actually exceeds forty centimetres per second
0:04:17which means that you can uh image to act chest the
0:04:20uh a region of a human body in less than half a second to you can't the entire body
0:04:25uh image about five seconds which clearly is causing potential problems with the patient leaving the table if you stop
0:04:30the scanner and the
0:04:31no
0:04:32just starts getting because the speed of the of the uh you know a card uses so so far
0:04:39so it one example i also try to show some examples of the individual limit what of the images
0:04:43this is an example of a roughly a domino uh part of the human body you can see the the
0:04:48spine in the middle
0:04:49um you
0:04:53you may be able to see some of the uh
0:04:57some of the vessels uh which you can have here
0:04:59and that
0:05:00uh
0:05:01you can identify the inner and outer uh walls of the vessels well for example if you look at this
0:05:05particle i we can see that
0:05:07but being to white part of this
0:05:09this uh a green area being the to wall and really we can difference between this particle slice and that's
0:05:14lies it seems to have a normal wall
0:05:16seems have some additional material
0:05:18uh inside of uh
0:05:20of the room in a wall
0:05:21which are if you image in three D will find out is somewhat from baltic area
0:05:25uh in this uh in this location
0:05:27and that a something which should not be there
0:05:29from in your is more changes it can be
0:05:31you by X ray D in this case a some contrast that will being included in the
0:05:36in the book
0:05:38oh example from the x-ray ct
0:05:40these the example from the long imaging
0:05:43where we would have one slice or of the make the
0:05:46uh
0:05:46uh mid level of the long
0:05:48uh you can see the uh
0:05:50the left and right long
0:05:52you can see the individual features here like this portion here this portion there which uh divide quite nicely quite
0:05:57visibly
0:05:58the individual so
0:05:59of uh of the long
0:06:01and of course you can get a sweet michael are presentation of lungs with the colour coded the all
0:06:06right to identified
0:06:07a back to that little bit uh
0:06:10if you talk about E mr imaging again it's three D forty the imaging modality
0:06:14which uh
0:06:15uh start with the high strings made tick feel that lines the minimisation of the hydrogen atoms water
0:06:21and uh
0:06:22you of
0:06:24boy some a radio frequency also
0:06:26which would core use form the whole dating the tick that and that this of can be detected by D
0:06:31M are scatter
0:06:32and then us
0:06:33and that
0:06:35you create we need a sense a different all some very complex signal manipulation to get that was in view
0:06:40images
0:06:40but the images are quite spectacular
0:06:42so in this case a you can see the example of the cardiac and is is the beating heart in
0:06:47the different projection to a short X is long X image
0:06:50uh uh of the left and the right ventricle so left and right but suppose here or you can also
0:06:55go uh so was a slice of like a short axis lies which should go no from
0:06:59the valve of all the way down to the a set and that you can see how it looks a
0:07:04uh a three do might for the and the asked like a face or a and cyst like face
0:07:08it would
0:07:09the like station and the screen is uh of the hard to
0:07:13it's a lot a a way how you can image do the same area of the body
0:07:17and that you have the hard which we so before like here but you have a different the direction of
0:07:21uh of your slices
0:07:23and this case on the left and side you can see D left ventricle out fault tracked with the aortic
0:07:28valve
0:07:29in this part you see what is called a candy cane uh
0:07:31the christmas you can to came uh you
0:07:34where a you see the or that quite nice still do i way out
0:07:38uh to the that
0:07:40if an example of mr imaging curve from the area of car a it's a from the neck area
0:07:46where in the uh
0:07:48bought for uh
0:07:49uh
0:07:50vascular a image you can see that this ten is the narrow incur of the vessel right here
0:07:55and that uh you can look at in the view cross section so off
0:07:58uh
0:07:59all the vessels
0:08:00if you look for example at the two different cross sections like a in this yellow and an orange areas
0:08:05you will see that that there is that that car date that
0:08:08uh
0:08:09right here with a little bit thicker wall
0:08:11and that that's
0:08:12well a good thing but it's not that super bad thing but if you see on the on this difference
0:08:17lies
0:08:17a slide that you sure by orange
0:08:19that that the room and start be really late i
0:08:22that and that you are getting very close to having a true problem
0:08:25and that this uh a find would be a source to strong uh
0:08:28which which clearly is not a
0:08:30a joyful think that have
0:08:32uh are you know don't have to image or only the cardiovascular system
0:08:36is another example of the knee joint the imaging
0:08:38what you have the the femur the
0:08:41a T V and about that one here you can see the bone structures as well as the individual portions
0:08:45of the cartridges
0:08:46which uh
0:08:47uh which you have you can analyse and the uh again shows sold
0:08:50just like
0:08:52if you switch to the ultrasound the
0:08:54and the old D optical coherence tomography images again we can easily do three D and forty uh imaging
0:08:59the ultrasound is using ca
0:09:01uh
0:09:03of of sounds uh
0:09:04of a different frequencies frequency the frequency influence the resolution of the imaging as well the depth of penetration of
0:09:09the signal
0:09:10but a money whatever T
0:09:12i know that you can again use it for
0:09:14a variety of uh best Q and the
0:09:16you'll be jane uh
0:09:18uh i don't techniques and so
0:09:19you have to go coding the model or face in some way similar to the ultrasound
0:09:23uh uh it uses different signal processing cut approach is with the coherent light
0:09:27uh it allows uh
0:09:29to a
0:09:30choir images of very high resolution
0:09:32uh based on the uh frequency laser
0:09:35uh maybe a hundred and a a one micron
0:09:38and that
0:09:39therefore lapse of penetration of we'll all but it's of it's fess found uh
0:09:43very fast a fascinating applications of non a six three D imaging
0:09:47view of the red in a and the core black cat
0:09:50uh
0:09:51from the inside a a interest vascular image
0:09:54i the example the ultrasound sound some a two D has slice is uh you can see the individual of
0:09:59use uh you know the heart
0:10:01you can also do a imaging what is called a real three D echo we four dimensional model the
0:10:07where a the and entire three D volume is acquired at the at the same time of the real time
0:10:12we get for example compared to D which is a don't not perfect that is respect to noise with a
0:10:17three D which is even rest
0:10:19picked to because you have uh
0:10:20a little bit less time to do all the audio
0:10:24an example is uh coming from but
0:10:26uh in geography imaging interest lots of sound imaging
0:10:29a that on the on the left and side that uh
0:10:32i can start okay level inside you had the x-ray projection of image
0:10:36with the not the K area here you can in they call that it with the intervals ultrasound sound that
0:10:41for on the tape which all dates that that thirty frames per second
0:10:45you can get the imaging if you put back the cost are
0:10:47uh use of can get a dimensional image or a of the current are three you see the vascular structure
0:10:52to the the any here this is the or itself
0:10:54as well as the
0:10:56the black which is uh
0:10:57a which may be uh it all okay the in in the corner
0:11:01this is an image or from the retinal channel uh all C
0:11:04uh uh image or of the macula
0:11:06oh so for the visions body use the for we have it's is that in the nation the
0:11:10uh a location but really see sharply this C D optic nerve had the blind spot though of the right
0:11:15a
0:11:16it's very interesting to identify those individual layers and start to associate the think is of those in the you
0:11:21or so with a
0:11:22um individual is easy which at which
0:11:26so the signal processing in image acquisition is uh use the very broadly and that
0:11:30uh clearly the advance is uh and the complexity of signal processing pipelines are
0:11:35absolutely critical for uh medical imaging medical image position
0:11:40we are trying to get heist image quality a high speed of acquisition highest resolution that's all what signal processing
0:11:45is gay
0:11:47uh a a question which is here is a how to get the high school of the images is minimal
0:11:51goals of and we are working with ionising radiation again a challenge the signal processing community
0:11:56and that something what the what be
0:11:58have need the
0:11:59uh to be able to use uh the imaging
0:12:02the best
0:12:03oh i made a statement and the very beginning that that
0:12:06uh image acquisition has revolutionised the critical uh portions of the madison
0:12:10the image analysis has not
0:12:13and that image analysis is a a cold in medical image analysis is widely used as research applications
0:12:18lights
0:12:19not
0:12:20for fully enter the clinical as
0:12:22it's to in clinical except and
0:12:24and that
0:12:25yeah
0:12:26robert but a can i it's of corn there is all the first one it really would you use the
0:12:31in the in the quantity matter
0:12:33uh it's also used for a screening in the cardiovascular matter in of tonic uh imaging matter and so on
0:12:38so for example if you can could occur it into a media thickness measurement is it the car the are
0:12:43three now image the
0:12:44uh
0:12:45with the ultrasound you to to stick this of the wall is the in a bright here the media layer
0:12:50you in black
0:12:51and that i can start analysing the thickness of the wall
0:12:54and that you can uh measure
0:12:56what think is it and the this case the thing it's of the new a wall this one would be
0:13:00but i have a many be a point six million you here
0:13:03you may have a different a subject that body measure to think it's of the wall to find out of
0:13:06stick this is actually about the many meter for the farm
0:13:09now the question is what i me
0:13:11and uh you can look at norm at if uh a a so of normative data is a a uh
0:13:16uh of uh of patient is respect to a H you may find out of for example complete normal
0:13:22while the second example is actually think wall and
0:13:24some person it'll will be a high risk a
0:13:26of uh
0:13:27but a heart attack or stroke a
0:13:29uh sometimes later in life
0:13:31and the uh maybe be ready for
0:13:33uh uh or some
0:13:34a drug treatment that
0:13:35uh a in something
0:13:38i showed do some of the uh images image is all the or to just to give you an idea
0:13:43how the analysis looks like uh you can get a three the actually four dimensional a analysis a three D
0:13:48plus time of the entire aortic blanks this respect to cross sections and motion and again gain compared to a
0:13:54a normal values maybe some values of uh
0:13:57um
0:13:58of uh subject to
0:14:00with some E
0:14:02real three D echo he's C D image back here i K i all that you can see those also
0:14:06those red calm to was on the right hand side
0:14:08in automated analysis which a also you to get maybe to uh volumetric metric information
0:14:13we the cardiac cycle partly ejection fraction what meant not on the base on the area
0:14:19and a area from a uh x-ray ray ct
0:14:21uh from the image of the long
0:14:23you can get the entire at every rate be analyzed you can a
0:14:26use it for uh
0:14:29for
0:14:30of image guided the surgical makes you want to reach some location of a you know how to get there
0:14:34you can uh do to separate the noise is one do you all and and you segments of the long
0:14:39uh
0:14:40a you probably here
0:14:41bit more
0:14:42about that
0:14:43uh
0:14:44we do have uh i don't a we have for context stress analysis uh uh for the for the me
0:14:48again image show showed you before
0:14:50where we identify individual balls identify the cartilage locations
0:14:54and that
0:14:55based on that you can cochlea in view by mechanical stress so which are applied to
0:15:00a individual subjects a
0:15:01uh being included in that uh imaging
0:15:04which
0:15:05oh of course you don't image only hear men's we image uh animals as well including small animals
0:15:10so this is an example of a models this is the most long for the mike C you scatter
0:15:14and the uh
0:15:15a reconstructed that three dimensional uh at a rate the of the mouse
0:15:19which uh uh seems to be an important thing
0:15:22or example from the malls uh with a three D C give registration many or image the same also over
0:15:27time you to register the models uh images
0:15:29uh so that you can find out where exactly the same point was in different scans or you like to
0:15:35it'll get a made use a like a later uh
0:15:38uh
0:15:38for different my
0:15:39this is the example of the analysis off
0:15:42that the macula make or image at uh from all C T in you can see we identify a large
0:15:47number of individual layers which are uh are are able to identify uh
0:15:51get the link use with uh uh are be is for example and some other uh disease
0:15:57i have one example whole for visualization a guide intervention here
0:16:00uh from the uh
0:16:03from the a uh
0:16:05surgical planning so traditionally you are planning on the on the two D display
0:16:09and uh
0:16:10you can also do the surgical i think in the virtual reality and wider
0:16:13and that you like to have like the three dimensional view
0:16:27and this is a a short movie that swap shows uh uh what would be interesting visualisations which are you
0:16:33have down to lie about together with the across university of technology incoming still grad
0:16:38you see the labour uh being ca three D visualised with the
0:16:42uh vascular trees and the tumour does the
0:16:44as the green thing here is the is the cancerous tumour which needs to be a sector
0:16:48so you have to identify
0:16:50yeah the individual segments uh in the labour
0:16:53the images themselves are actually displayed that us to do some i transparent goggles we the surgeon is uh is
0:16:58varying
0:16:59and that
0:17:00the uh
0:17:01oh
0:17:02this is which you see here is really interactive uh panel which allows you to project the individual a sections
0:17:08all dct in the proper orientation
0:17:11uh
0:17:12by all this place through the uh
0:17:14sort of got
0:17:16so an example of the uh
0:17:19of the best three here you can identify and of you portions sort the vascular tree
0:17:23and that as a result of that that you can get that
0:17:26yeah segmentation all the ever in the segment because when you want to re sec portion of it we have
0:17:31to recite the entire segment
0:17:33you have to do the segmentation
0:17:35as you will see uh
0:17:36C immediately
0:17:38uh uh after this
0:17:40and uh a a a you can
0:17:43you can use it then actually quite useful for the more difficult the a a sections
0:17:47than uh do ones which are so really T
0:17:51you uh
0:17:52as get the lost the last
0:17:54second of those in you light sleep segments
0:17:57once you have that you can start to
0:17:59uh
0:17:59starting planning for the for the
0:18:01and the are sections
0:18:03you can get a a or was in the segments gets a i see that
0:18:06to M or
0:18:07i know that the oldest this particle segment has to go
0:18:10so what sort of surgery a just take it out
0:18:13and that
0:18:15find out what happens if you do that do we have enough safety margin between the two
0:18:23oh
0:18:24such should uh
0:18:26have to this uh a short introduction
0:18:28it will consist of five different uh uh a papers
0:18:31it a uh try to give you all some overview of the entire chain of typical operations steps
0:18:35and the first uh a present they should be given bit by michael ones are beginning with the image reconstruction
0:18:41interior tomography from by medical applications be the topic of the second talk
0:18:46uh image and signal processing challenges in the translational uh likely imaging research
0:18:51a given by all really if felt
0:18:53then a talk above field you signals for respiratory gating long C image sequence
0:18:57by uh joe right hard and last one be
0:18:59how we can model at the origin a the a populations
0:19:02given by
0:19:04so this was a very brief introduction i think we are
0:19:07the end of my a all the time
0:19:10and that
0:19:11if you have a one quick question i can answer or otherwise you problem be able to as a question
0:19:15get more detailed uh
0:19:20or right that's why whole
0:19:22right
0:19:22right
