Abstract

We are in the era of Big Data. Data are everywhere! They are part of the information processing system of all sectors, from science to government, from healthcare to media, from university to real time commerce. In healthcare, in particular, the increasing use of medical devices, such as the Computed Tomography (CT) and the Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) has led to the generation of large amounts of data, including image data. Bioinformatics solutions provide an effective approach for image data processing techniques whose final aim is to support scientists and physicians in diagnosis and therapies. This paper surveys bioinformatics toolkits for medical imaging.
