Texture modeling applied to medical images
Remeš, Václav ; Haindl, Michal (advisor)
and contributions This thesis presents novel descriptive multidimensional Markovian textural models applied to computer aided diagnosis in the field of X-ray mammogra- phy. These general mathematical models, applicable in wide areas of texture modeling outside X-ray mammography as well, provide ideal visual verification using synthesis of the corresponding measured data spaces, contrary to stan- dard discriminative models. All achieved results in the thesis are extensively benchmarked. The thesis presents two methods for breast density classification in X-ray mammography. The methods were tested on the widely known MIAS database and the state-of-the art INbreast database, with competitive results. Several methods for completely automatic mammogram texture enhance- ment are presented. These methods are based on the descriptive textural mod- els developed in the thesis which automatically adapt to the analyzed X-ray texture, thus being universal for any type of input without the need of further manual tuning of specific parameters. The methods' outputs highlight regions of interest, detected as textural abnormalities. The methods provide the pos- sibility of enhancement tuned to specific types of mammogram tissue. Hence, the enhanced mammograms can help radiologists to decrease their false negative...

METHODOLOGY OF VOICE DISORDER EVALUATION FROM VIDEOKYMOGRAPHY RECORDS
Vydrová, J. ; Švec, J. G. ; Zitová, Barbara ; Novozámský, Adam ; Zita, Aleš ; Šorel, Michal
The aim of the methodology „Evaluating voice disorders from videkymographic data“ is to provide a comprehensive information on a new diagnostic method for diagnosis of functional and organic disorders of the voice - videokymography (VKG). The methodology is intended for otorinolaryngology and phoniatry specialists. The methodology will also serve as a study material for both trainers and trainees of the certified course „Videokymography in Medical Practice“. The diagnostic method consists of a patient examination technique and of an evaluation of the examination results. Thie data are automatically evaluated by software created to support the VKG diagnostics.
