Analysis of skin texture is very useful for creation and development of cosmetic products, skin texture modeling, and face recognition in security applications and also computerassisted diagnosis in dermatology. Several types of skin diseases are increasing human begins daily life; to deal with an effective and also very important manner the disease must be diagnosed properly. Skin texture analysis is one of the major problems in the field of medical diagnosis for finding skin diseases. Hence, the texture of skin is analyzed based on various features and characteristics so that the inconsistencies can be avoided during the treatment. The main goal of this study was to examine the texture of the human skin by image processing method. The skin properties like skin oiliness, dryness, pigmentation, fungus, infection, allergic symptoms and itching kind of problems association with skin texture profile is debated in the proposed work. Skin images are preprocessed using various pre-processing techniques and the Texture Filtering method is used for segment the skin textures so it can easy to identifying the skin properties accurately. Finally machine learning techniques are used to analyze and categorize the skin textures based on the texture and shape features. The experimental result shows that Decision Tree algorithm outperforms well in categorizing skin textures.
<p>Nuclear imaging is an exceptional branch of medical science that has been evolved in the latest decades in early diagnosis of a disease. The main underlying principle is that radioisotopes are injected in the body and emits gamma rays which are detected by special image receptors. Various nuclear imaging modalities include Scintigraphy, SPECT (Single photon emission computed tomography) and PET (Positron emission tomography) which can assess any functional changes that occur within a diseased cell. This article has essentially dealt with the fundamental principles of various nuclear imaging modalities and their applications in oral and maxillofacial region.</p>
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
