Abstract

In order to solve the problem that the objective measurement functions based on the gray value used in single-modality registration could not describe the differences among multi-modal images adequately, and the problem that the blurring edge and insufficient complementary information in current multi-modal medical image fusion methods. We propose a multi-modal medical image fusion method based on multi-scale analysis and PCNN. Firstly, we use the multi-scale filter image enhancement algorithm in image pre-processing. Secondly, the local feature descriptors modality mapping method is used in image registration. Thirdly, the algorithm based on improved guided filtering and dual-channel pulse coupling neural network is image fusion. The experiment results show that the proposed algorithm can effectively retain the detail texture information, feature information and contour information of the source images. The proposed algorithm improves the definition, robustness and efficiency effectively.
