You may register for either part of the series, or both. On September 16th at 4:00 pm EDT, join us to learn how to use MATLAB and Image Processing Toolbox to solve problems and explore ideas for medical image analysis. We will focus on a problem of image segmentation and experiment quantification using a set of high-throughput gene expression images. Our workflow will include the following highlights: - Options for importing and exploring imagery - Algorithm development using the MATLAB environment - Evaluation of image processing techniques for segmentation - Application development, including GUI building within MATLAB - Report generation - Application deployment We will also show the ease with which Microsoft Excel can be used in conjunction with MATLAB. The webinar will last approximately 60 minutes. A Q&A session will follow the presentation and demos. On September 23rd at 2:00 pm EDT, join us for part two of this webinar series. Medical image processing requires a comprehensive environment for data access, analysis, processing, visualization, and algorithm development. In this webinar, you will learn how to use MATLAB and Image Processing Toolbox to solve problems using CT, MRI and fluorescein angiogram images. Our demonstrations will include the following highlights: - Volume visualization of a brain MRI image stack - Multimodal image registration to optimize the alignment of CT and MRI data - Video analysis and neural network-based classification of a fluorescein angiogram The presentation will last approximately 60 minutes and includes a Q&A session with the audience at the end of the presentation. To register for September 16th, 4:00 p.m. EDT: http://click.em.mathworks.com/?qs=f65c0c93054a06a15cc36e02420071318c33bbf31dbb9e7f3f2cf0390ab0b4a5aa1392f8f61a3641 To register for September 23rd, 2:00 p.m. EDT: http://click.em.mathworks.com/?qs=f65c0c93054a06a14f0a985b7f39455eb289c3cf3ab15b3275368ee2e6782784853a4ad91889d634 You may register for both days.
