US Patent:
2013029, Nov 7, 2013
Filed:
Mar 15, 2013
Appl. No.:
13/834304
Inventors:
Matthew Nitzken - Louisville KY, US Garth M. Beache - Louisville KY, US
Assignee:
UNIVERSITY OF LOUISVILLE RESEARCH FOUNDATION, INC. - Louisville KY
International Classification:
G06T 7/00
US Classification:
382131
Abstract:
A computer aided image processing system and automated method to improve tagged magnetic resonance image data through modeling and analyzing the magnetic resonance image data using a linear combination of discrete Gaussians model and using a Markov-Gibbs random field model. The processed magnetic resonance images include reduced noise associated with the tags, augmented gradients across a tag profile and an amplified tag to background contrast as compared to the original tagged magnetic resonance images.
