The study considers the 2 nearest hospitals from MCM that offers MRI service. The table above highlights the competitive factors that should be taken account in analyzing the competitiveness of MCM in the context of the acquisition of a 1.5 Tesla MRI for the hospital. The weakest point of MCM is the bed capacity as it only has 100 beds compared to 300 beds of AHMC and UPHMC. The price competitiveness of MCM is moderate since it has the same proposed price range as UPHMC which is a good sign for

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Computed Tomography Scan (CT) Modern medical technology allows physicians to capture detailed images of the body for diagnosing and treatment planning of various health issues. Radiologists use imaging technologies to diagnose or treat diseases. Interventional radiology is the performance of medical procedures with the guidance of imaging technologies. Acquisition of medical imaging is usually performed by a radiologic technologist and the results are interpreted

“EXTRACTION AND QUANTIFICATION OF BRAIN TUMOR FROM MRI IMAGE” CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 GENERAL: The principle task of our project is to recognize a tumor and its quantifications from a particular MRI scan of a brain image using digital image processing techniques and compute the area of the tumor by fully automated process. In medical imaging‚ segmentation of images plays a vital role in stages which occur before implementing object recognition

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) Guided Focused Ultrasound (FUS) Treatment for Breast Cancer Magnetic resonance imaging guided focused ultrasound is completely noninvasive treatment for breast cancer which requires less anesthesia‚ recovery time and could avoid infections‚ scar formation and possibly reduce cost. It is the method of choice for accurate delimitation of many breast tumors‚ it can noninvasively measure ultrasound induced temperature. The combination of MRI and FUS concurrently allow
