Publisher's Synopsis
The aim of this book consists in demonstrating the state of the art in the domain of integration of images in worksta- tions devoted to radiologists, surgeons and clinicians. It describes possible tools and solutions in the fields of ima- ge archiving systems (image data bases, compression pro- blems,...), image communication systems, multimodality image matching, and interventional imaging. The participation of specialists coming from both the medi- cal and the engineering profession makes the book up to date and pertinent in the two domains: medical imaging and image processing.
