Research and application of medical image fusion algorithm
Objective:Doctors can get different details from different medical images because of the different imaging theory of medical instruments and application
image fusion become a key means in clinic diagnose and medical research.Methods:This paper adopted an image fusion method based on non-separable wavelet frame transform.Firstly
having finished the registration
medical image was decomposed with non-separable wavelet decomposition
and into low and high frequency sub-image.According to the different characteristics of high frequency and low frequency components
the paper acquire different fusion rule to fuse the images
then through the inverse wavelet transform
we can acquire the fused image.In addition
the paper introduced the entropy
average gradient
uniformity of fusion to evaluate the fused image.Results:The results showed that this method could enhance the detail and brightness information of fused image
which is superior to traditional wavelet transform.Conclusion:It is an effective method of medical image fusion based on the non-separable wavelet framework image fusion algorithm
which could improve the accuracy and validity of disease diagnosis.
