Intelligent indoor mobile robot navigation using stereo visionsipij
Majority of the existing robot navigation systems, which facilitate the use of laser range finders, sonar
sensors or artificial landmarks, has the ability to locate itself in an unknown environment and then build a
map of the corresponding environment. Stereo vision,while still being a rapidly developing technique in the
field of autonomous mobile robots, are currently less preferable due to its high implementation cost. This
paper aims at describing an experimental approach for the building of a stereo vision system that helps the
robots to avoid obstacles and navigate through indoor environments and at the same time remaining very
much cost effective. This paper discusses the fusion techniques of stereo vision and ultrasound sensors
which helps in the successful navigation through different types of complex environments. The data from
the sensor enables the robot to create the two dimensional topological map of unknown environments and
stereo vision systems models the three dimension model of the same environment.
An algorithm to quantify the swelling by reconstructing 3D model of the face with stereo images is presented. We
analyzed the primary problems in computational stereo, which include correspondence and depth calculation. Work has been carried out to determine suitable methods for depth estimation and standardizing volume estimations. Finally we designed software for reconstructing 3D images from 2D stereo images, which was built on Matlab and Visual C++. Utilizing
techniques from multi-view geometry, a 3D model of the face was constructed and refined. An explicit analysis of the stereo
disparity calculation methods and filter elimination disparity estimation for increasing reliability of the disparity map was
used. Minimizing variability in position by using more precise positioning techniques and resources will increase the accuracy of this technique and is a focus for future work
Digital 3D imaging can benefit from advances in VLSI technology in order to accelerate its deployment in many fields like visual communication and industrial automation. High-resolution 3D images can be acquired using laser-based vision systems. With this approach, the 3D information becomes relatively insensitive to background illumination and surface texture. Complete images of visible surfaces that are rather featureless to the human eye or a video camera can be generated. Intelligent digitizers will be capable of measuring accurately and simultaneously color and 3D.

Rician Noise Reduction with SVM and Iterative Bilateral Filter in Different T...IJMERJOURNAL
ABSTRACT: Parallel magnetic resonance imaging (pMRI) techniques can speed up MRI scan through a multi-channel coil array receiving signal simultaneously. Nevertheless, noise amplification and aliasing artifacts are serious in pMRI reconstructed images at high accelerations. Image Denoising is one of the most challenging task because image denoising techniques not only poised some technical difficulties, but also may result in the destruction of the image (i.e. making it blur) if not effectively and adequately applied to image. This study presents a patch-wise de-noising method for pMRI by exploiting the rank deficiency of multi-Channel coil images and sparsity of artifacts. For each processed patch, similar patches a researched in spatial domain and through-out all coil elements, and arranged in appropriate matrix forms. Then, noise and aliasing artifacts are removed from the structured Matrix by applying sparse and low rank matrix decomposition method. The proposed method has been validated using both phantom and in vivo brain data sets, producing encouraging results. Specifically, the method can effectively remove both noise and residual aliasing artifact from pMRI reconstructed noisy images, and produce higher peak signal noise rate (PSNR) and structural similarity index matrix (SSIM) than other state-of-the-art De-noising methods. We propose image de-noising using low rank matrix decomposition (LMRD) and Support vector machine (SVM). The aim of Low Rank Matrix approximation based image enhancement is that it removes the various types of noises in the contaminated image simultaneously. The main contribution is to explore the image denoising low-rank property and the applications of LRMD for enhanced image Denoising, Then support vector machine is applied over the result.
SVM Classification of MRI Brain Images for ComputerAssisted DiagnosisIJECEIAES
Magnetic Resonance Imaging is a powerful technique that helps in the diagnosis of various medical conditions. MRI Image pre-processing followed by detection of brain abnormalities, such as brain tumors, are considered in this work. These images are often corrupted by noise from various sources. The Discrete Wavelet Transforms (DWT) with details thresholding is used for efficient noise removal followed by edge detection and threshold segmentation of the denoised images. Segmented image features are then extracted using morphological operations. These features are finally used to train an improved Support Vector Machine classifier that uses a Gausssian radial basis function kernel. The performance of the classifier is evaluated and the results of the classification show that the proposed scheme accurately distinguishes normal brain images from the abnormal ones and benign lesions from malignant tumours. The accuracy of the classification is shown to be 100% which is superior to the results reported in the literature.

Tom Selleck Health: A Comprehensive Look at the Iconic Actor’s Wellness Journeygreendigital
Tom Selleck, an enduring figure in Hollywood. has captivated audiences for decades with his rugged charm, iconic moustache. and memorable roles in television and film. From his breakout role as Thomas Magnum in Magnum P.I. to his current portrayal of Frank Reagan in Blue Bloods. Selleck's career has spanned over 50 years. But beyond his professional achievements. fans have often been curious about Tom Selleck Health. especially as he has aged in the public eye.
Follow us on: Pinterest
Introduction
Many have been interested in Tom Selleck health. not only because of his enduring presence on screen but also because of the challenges. and lifestyle choices he has faced and made over the years. This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.
Fitness Regimen

ABDOMINAL TRAUMA in pediatrics part one.drhasanrajab
Abdominal trauma in pediatrics refers to injuries or damage to the abdominal organs in children. It can occur due to various causes such as falls, motor vehicle accidents, sports-related injuries, and physical abuse. Children are more vulnerable to abdominal trauma due to their unique anatomical and physiological characteristics. Signs and symptoms include abdominal pain, tenderness, distension, vomiting, and signs of shock. Diagnosis involves physical examination, imaging studies, and laboratory tests. Management depends on the severity and may involve conservative treatment or surgical intervention. Prevention is crucial in reducing the incidence of abdominal trauma in children.

Clinical evidence on its efficacy remains limited, necessitating further research to validate its therapeutic benefits.
1. MNPS: Mevis Neurosurgery Planning System.
Overview (June 2020).
By Armando Alaminos Bouza
MNPS allows pre-planning and simulation of several stereotactic neurosurgery
procedures. It has support for most stereotactic apparatus on the market. MNPS is a
software only system, it is not exclusive of any particular stereotactic manufacturer. Some
of its functionalities are: stereotactic coordinates computation, stereotactic localization
with X-ray images, image registration and fusion, functional neurosurgery tools, brain
atlases, tractography, brachytherapy, radiosurgery, and more. MNPS has corrections for
ring tilt and swivel inside CT/MRI gantry for all stereotactic systems. There is also support
of DBS geometry, electric field, and VTA, for several brands and models.
The present MNPS was born in 1989 as "NSPS". "MSPS" was its second name. Some
bibliography referring the use of NSPS/MSPS/MNPS is presented at the end.
MNPS is a Windows based system. It must be used on computers with Intel CPUs and
NVidia graphic processors are recommended. Allows use on notebooks and surface
computers, needs one free USB port.

2. MNPS has a long
history. The first
lines of its code
were written in
1989, for a
Riechert-
Mundinger
system.
The right image
shows a banner
from a meeting in
Brazil, 2010.
3. Support for DICOM, NIfTI and some proprietary image formats. Allows use of CT, MRI,
PET and SPECT, but for 99% of the cases only CT and MRI are used.
MNPS : Importing patient's images
4. MNPS : Automatic fiducials detection for any supported stereotactic device, even those
systems with markers embedded in plastic plates, resulting in lower contrast localizers. In
the rare case where MNPS fails to find the fiducials, the operator can set the fiducials
manually for that tomogram.
5. 2D planning window. Stereotactic coordinates of the red cursor are continuously
displayed. Reformatted images at the left are co-planar with red cross at main window.
Reformatted images are rendered in real time following cursor movement.
6. Main window with reformatted image. Screenshot of planning over a reformatted sagittal image.
MNPS accepts images with tilt and swivel. Stereotactic coordinates from images with tilt/swivel are
corrected. CT calibration bias in stereotactic images are also corrected based on fiducials
markers positions.
8. MNPS. Detail from 3D window with projection of principal planes and rendering the
surface of a Region of Interest (ROI) drawn by the operator (red surface). There are
several tools for image segmentation.
9. Non-stereotactic MRI images can be registered into stereotactic CT space. MRI images
can be distorted by some stereotactic frame parts inside the magnetic field, so it is
advisable to use CT instead of MRI with the frame attached.
MNPS: Multimodality image registration and fusion.
10. Reformatted images rendering MRI. Coordinates are stereotactic, even if cursor is over MRI.
MNPS allows image registration with axial, coronal or sagittal MRI sets.
MNPS: Multimodality image registration and fusion.
11. MRI rendered in false color. In the main window a high-band filter was used
removing MRI voxels with low signal response.
MNPS : Stereotactic CT and non-stereotactic MRI.
12. Stereotactic coordinates and trajectory projection. MNPS shows the stereotactic coordinates as a
table at the left bottom side of the main window. For a Riechert-Mundinger system (case of the
image), four angles an the needle depth are shown. For isocentric systems, only two angles are
presented.
13. Most functional resources depends on the positions of three landmarks: AC (anterior commissure), PC (posterior
commissure) and IHP (a point on the mid sagittal plane). The registration of all maps to the brain are based on those
points. AC, PC and IHP definition is the operator's responsibility, there is not automatic method so far.
Functional neurosurgery tools on MNPS.
14. Maps overlayed on patient's brain.
The maps were digitalized as vectors.
Vectorial representation of maps has the
advantage of allowing deformations for a
better fit between the model's brain and
the patient's brain.
The name of the nucleus is also stored,
so that the operator can query MNPS
about the name of any structure.
15. MNPS : Other tools for functional surgery planning
Vectorial maps allows
some deformations and
scaling operations to try a
better fit into patient's
topography. This is a detail
of the maps setting
window.
Maps allows query for the name of
each structure as the cursor is moved
16. MNPS : Other tools for functional surgery planning
Nuclei with 3D representation
Some common targets can be
suggested by MNPS based on AC, PC
and IHP location.
Once the user marks AC, PC and IHP,
MNPS stars reporting commissural
coordinates. The commissural
Cartesian system in MNPS has origin
at the inter-comissural point.
17. MNPS : 3D volumetric rendering of some
functional nuclei with projected trajectories for a
DBS or electrode.
18. Precise geometrical model and
rendering of several DBS by
brand and model.

as part of pre-planning for a functional procedure
20. MNPS showing DBS over registered MRI image with overlayed functional maps.
This is a DBS with 1.5 mm electrode size with 1.5 mm spacing.
21. Implementation of a Electric Field model (FEM solution) allowing presentation of Electric
Field Modulus around a set of DBS leads. Brain tissue is treated as homogeneous and
isotropic (conductivity and permittivity are constant for all tissue).
22. Finite Element Model (FEM) of the electric field allows simulation of arbitrary shaped contact.
Note the eccentricity of the field near the contact, specially for the tip of a Saint Jude lead.
Also note the influence of several active contacts on the resulting field.
23. VTA shown with 50%
transparency.
Conductivity and
permittivity of tissue are
assumed isotropic.
Correlation between
electric field and VTA are
taken from literature.
Implemented only as
voltage-controlled so far.

25. MNPS: Support to SceneRay DBS models
Three models with the same electric
parameters resulting in slightly different electric
fields and VTA, due to contact spacing.

31. “Virtual Fiducials Mode” allows non-stereotactic images directly into MNPS.
WARNING :
Coordinates in Virtual
Fiducials Mode are not
stereotactic
Do not use on
surgery !
On the other hand,
comissural coordinates
are useful for pre- and
post-planning.
32. Virtual Fiducials Mode is
convenient for pre-
planning and also for post-
planning.
In Virtual Fiducials Mode
all the tools available for
Stereotactic image
sequences can be used
on non-stereotactic image
sets
33. MNPS imports DTI tractography from .OBJ or .TRK files. The user can process the original
DTI volume with its preferred DTI analysis system and export the fiber tracks for use on
MNPS. We have successfully imported fiber tracks from DTI-Studio, FSL, and 3D-Slicer.
34. Fiber tracks can be overlaid to functional map nuclei, ROI volumes, instrument tracks,
etc, rendered in 2D and 3D. The user can select fibers from a region and hide fibers not
crossing that region.
Sample images showing fibers crossing the region of STn and Red Nuclei.
35. Fiber tracks can be imported do stereo-CT via multi-modal image
registration with MRI volumes.
36. Fiber tracks imported into stereo-CT
space via image registration.
Border of a surgery target segmented
and rendered as solid 3D object (in
red).
Also, use image registration to import
tracks from DTI volume into T1 or T2
volumes. Care should be taken with
significant image distortion, common on
DTI volumes. Non-rigid registration can
be handy to deal with some distortion.
39. “Portal Check”: New tool for comparing DRR, including a virtual probe, with an
X-ray taken intra-op. It helps for verifying the placement of a DBS or any other
instrument.
40. Checking a DBS position by matching a DRR and its corresponding X-ray
Wrong registration, MI = 1.1089 Best registration MI = 1.1770
41. MNPS - DRR and X-rays, registration using intrinsic landmarks.
42. MNPS : Stereotactic Radiosurgery (SRS) tools.
It is LINAC based SRS, with circular collimators. The dose should be delivered by non-coplanar
radiations arcs. Up to 64 arcs are available. Isodose maps are rendered in 2D and 3D surfaces. For
SRS planning the stereo-CT is mandatory, all dosimetry is based on Houndfield units, but MRIs
could be used via registration and fusion with stereo-CT.
44. MNPS SRS, Treating multiple isocenters
MNPS SRS: Automatic optimization tools
and conformity evaluation report. Some
inverse planning capabilities, optimize
isocenter positions and arc weights
45. Stereotactic target localization based of orthogonal X-ray pairs. Mainly used for DSA localization and
treatment with SRS. Cursor in X-rays correlated to position on CT or MRI continuously. The
orthogonal setup is not mandatory, only need to “see” the 8 markers on each X-ray view. The image
below shows a phantom for quality assurance with a ZD system attached.
46. Sample AVM treatment plan with MNPS, (plan by Physicist Dra. S. Gusman, Lima, Peru)
47. MNPS and SRS planning: Brain fibers crossing an isodose volume
80% Isodose volume rendered with all fibers Only those fibers crossing 80% isodose
48. MNPS: Support for stereotactic brachytherapy with Iodine 125 seeds. Up to
256 sources per plan. Dose computation for temporary as well as permanent
implants. Isodose overlays in 2D images and isodose surfaces on 3D window.
49. MNPS is a Windows based application, but if you want to run it on a Mac-OS
there are to ways: Use a virtual machine (tested so far with Parallels and VMware
Fusion) or create a Bootcamp.
