Robust and automatic adjustment of display window width and center for MR images

摘要

A system for deriving final display parameters for a wide range of MR images consists of a feature generator utilizing both histogram and spatial information computed from an input MR image, a wavelet transform within the feature generator for compressing the size of the feature vector, a competitive layer based neural network for clustering MR images into different subclasses, a bi-modal linear estimation network and a radial bases function network based non-linear estimator for each subclass, as well as a data fusion system using estimates from both estimators to compute the final display parameters.
