Abstract

Sürekli Dalga Difüz Optik Tomografi (Continuous Wave Diffuse Optical Tomography, CWDOT) sistemi tıp alanında kullanılan görüntüleme sistemlerinden biridir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, CWDOT sistemi ile oluşturulan üç boyutlu (3B) meme fantomu görüntülerine farklı görüntü işleme yöntemlerini 3B olarak uygulamak ve en uygun görüntü işleme yöntemini belirlemektir. Meme fantomu intralipid, su ve Indosiyanin yeşili (ICG) karışımında yapıldı, tümörü temsil etmesi için karışımın içine inklüzyonlar konuldu. Bu çalışmada, görüntü işleme algoritmalarında uzaysal filtrelerden (spatial filter); Ortalama, Gauss, Laplas, Laplasyen Gauss filtreleme yöntemleri uygulandı. Daha sonra, en yakın komşu, çift doğrusal, çift kübik ve kübik spline interpolasyon yöntemleri görüntülere uygulandı. Görüntü işleme sonuçları; Tepe sinyalinin gürültüye oranı (PSNR), Ortalama hata karesi (MSE) ve Yapısal benzerlik oranı (SSIM) yöntemleri kullanılarak sayısal karşılaştırmaları yapılmıştır. Bu çalışma ile tümör benzeri yapıların meme fantomu içindeki konumlarını gerçek şekil ve boyutlarda en iyi ortaya çıkaran görüntü işleme yöntemleri belirlendi. CWDOT sistemine uygun olan görüntü işleme yöntemlerinin Gauss filtreleme ve çift kübik interpolasyon yöntemleri olduğu gösterildi.

On Testing Image Processing Applications in Diffuse Optical Tomography System

Abstract

Continuous Wave Diffuse Optical Tomography (CWDOT) system is one of the emerging medical imaging modalities. This study aims to apply different three dimensional (3D) image processing methods to breast phantom images and determine the most appropriate image processing methods in CWDOT. A breast phantom was made with a mixture of intralipid, water, and Indocyanine green (ICG). Inclusions were used to represent the tumor inside the phantoms. First, image processing methods of spatial filters such as Average, Gaussian, Laplacian, Laplacian of Gaussian (LoG) filtering methods were implemented. Then, nearest, bilinear, bicubic, and cubic spline interpolation methods were applied to the images. After the image processing using different filters and interpolation techniques, the images were evaluated numerically using the Peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR), Mean square error (MSE), and Structural similarity index (SSIM) methods. In this study, the most appropriate image processing algorithm was defined based on the location, shapes, and sizes of the breast phantom inclusions. Our results show that Gaussian filtering and Bicubic Interpolation are the most appropriate filtering and interpolation techniques for the images obtained from CWDOT.
