Medical X-rays
Note: If you are a medical professional and interested in collaborative research on the de-blurring of medical images, contact us.

One application of the SeDDaRA de-blurring process is to enhance medical images.  This page demonstrates the application on digitized x-rays.  Gallery page 8 demonstrates the application on ultrasound images.

Muscovy Duck X-ray
Fig1: This curious image is a digitized x-ray of a muscovy duck. It provides a demonstration of a restoration on a non-optical image.

Run your mouse over the image to reveal the restored figure.

Fig 2: Restored Image. As you can see, much greater detail is seen when the degration is removed.  (The straight line on the right was not orignially imaged, but superimposed for demonstrative purposes.  Thus it appears distorted after deconvolution.)
Digital Dental X-ray
Fig1: This is a digital dental panoramic X-ray of human teeth. The original image had a bit depth of 8 bits, and had jpeg compression.

Run your mouse over the image to reveal the restored figure.

Fig 2: Restored Image. Despite the low bit depth, the resolution of this image is drastically improved. However, if you closely at the gray areas, you can see some artifacting that results from the jpeg compression.
Digital Dental X-ray
Fig1: This is another digital X-ray of teeth, pretty typical of all digital X-rays found on many websites. 

Run your mouse over the image to reveal the restored figure.

Fig 2: Restored Image. The deconvolved image was noisy. So we applied a noise reduction filter to reduce noise and emphasize the main features.
Penguin X-ray
Fig1: This image is an x-ray of a penguin. 

Run your mouse over the image to reveal the restored figure.

Fig 2: Restored Image.
