The Computational Challenges of Medical Imaging

Abstract

JASON will undertake a study for the DOE and the NIH National Institute for Bio-medical Imaging and Bio-engineering on the role of computation (broadly defined to include raw computational capabilities, mass storage needs, and connectivity) for medical imaging. This study will address the computational requirements in three general areas: * The fusion of image data of varying modalities, over differing spatial and temporal scales and resolutions. * The extraction and display of quantitative information, with associated uncertainties. 0 Data archiving: raw vs. extracted parameters, metadata standards.
