Content-based 3D neuroradiologic image retrieval: preliminary results

摘要

A content-based 3D neuroradiologic image retrieval system is being developed at the Robotics Institute of CMU. The special characteristics of this system include: directly dealing with multimodal 3D images (MR/CT); image similarity based on anatomical structures of the human brain; and combining both visual and collateral information for indexing and retrieval. A testbed has been implemented for using detected salient visual features for indexing and retrieving 3D images.
