Medical emergencies in medical imaging [PDF]
BMJ Quality & Safety, 2012 Sending inpatients to the medical imaging department is sometimes tantamount to discharging them from hospital for hours at a time. Consider, for example, a patient with an unexplained acute abdomen where an urgent CT scan is indicated. Patient transport, logistical delays and the procedure itself may lead to gaps in monitoring vital signs, providing ...

Postgraduate Medical Journal, 1991 Summary and conclusionsThere is now a wide choice of medical imaging to show both focal and diffuse pathologies in various organs. Conventional radiology with plain films, fluoroscopy and contrast medium have many advantages, being readily available with low-cost apparatus and a familiarity that almost leads to contempt. The use of plain films in chest

Noise-Resistant Image Encryption Scheme for Medical Images in the Chaos and Wavelet Domain
IEEE Access, 2021 In this paper, a noise-resistant image encryption scheme is proposed. We have used a cubic-logistic map, Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT), and bit-plane extraction method to encrypt the medical images at the bit-level rather than pixel-level.

How Can a Deep Learning Algorithm Improve Fracture Detection on X-rays in the Emergency Room?
Journal of Imaging, 2021 The growing need for emergency imaging has greatly increased the number of conventional X-rays, particularly for traumatic injury. Deep learning (DL) algorithms could improve fracture screening by radiologists and emergency room (ER) physicians.
