Medical image segmentation is made difficult by low contrast, noise, and other imaging ambiguities. Although there are many computer vision techniques for image segmentation, some have been adapted specifically for medical image computing. Below is a sampling of techniques within this field; the implementation relies on the expertise that ...
Medical Image Analysis (MedIA) is a peer-reviewed academic journal which focuses on medical and biological image analysis.The journal publishes papers which contribute to the basic science of analyzing and processing biomedical images acquired through means such as magnetic resonance imaging, ultrasound, computed tomography, nuclear medicine, x-ray, optical and confocal microscopy, among others.
DICOM is used worldwide to store, exchange, and transmit medical images.DICOM has been central to the development of modern radiological imaging: DICOM incorporates standards for imaging modalities such as radiography, ultrasonography, computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and radiation therapy.

As a result, the main limiting factor for the medical imaging field became the human inability to accurately interpret large amounts of data. [4] Thus, the need arose for computerized assistance with complex digital imaging analysis, storage and manipulation. Modern Imaging Informatics was developed to fulfill these needs.
Image analysis or imagery analysis is the extraction of meaningful information from images; mainly from digital images by means of digital image processing techniques. [1] Image analysis tasks can be as simple as reading bar coded tags or as sophisticated as identifying a person from their face .
If the goal is a medical diagnostic, then histology applications will often fall into the realm of digital pathology or automated tissue image analysis, which are sister fields of bioimage informatics. The same computational techniques are often applicable, but the goals are medically- rather than research-oriented.
