Computer processing of CT images: advances and prospects.
Computerized tomography (CT) images are created by computer and as such are inherently amenable to computer image processing techniques. Advances have been made in the areas of alternative visualization (coronal views, etc.), image enhancement, feature extraction, and computer analysis of the extracted information. Further advances await imaginative application of these techniques and time; others will depend upon necessary advances in image processing methods.
