TLDR
This paper proposes a hybrid image fusion method using the combine advantage of Multi-Scaling (DWT) and Multi-Resolution (DRT) Techniques on Medical images CT and MRI to combine more useful information and remove redundant information from source images.
Abstract
Medical image fusion is the process of deriving important information from medical images like CT(Computed Tomography), MRI(Magnetic Resonance Imaging), PET(Positron Emission Tomography) and SPECT (Signal photon emission computed tomography). These derived information can be used for diagnosing diseases, detecting the tumor, surgery treatment and so on. The main objective of image fusion is to combine more useful information and remove redundant information from source images. This paper propose a hybrid image fusion method using the combine advantage of Multi-Scaling (DWT) and Multi-Resolution(DRT) Techniques on Medical images CT and MRI. The performance of the fused image is evaluated using different parameters like PSNR, MSE.

MRI and CT Fusion in Stereotactic Electroencephalography: A Literature Review

TL;DR: A literature review found that rigid registration was the most used technique when electrode localization in SEEG is required, which was the proposed method in nine of the found articles, and there is a lack of standard validation metrics, which makes the performance measurement difficult when external objects are presented.

Redundancy Discrete Wavelet Transform and Contourlet Transform for Multimodality Medical Image Fusion with Quantitative Analysis

TL;DR: From the experimental results, it is observed that RDWT method provides better information (quality) using EN metric and the Contour let Transform gives the difference in source to the fusion image using OCE metric and also the fused image obtained from the proposed fusion techniques has more information than the source images are proved through all metrics.

Mixed scheme based multimodal medical image fusion using Daubechies Complex Wavelet Transform

TL;DR: This work has proposed a new multimodal medical image fusion method using Daubechies complex wavelet transform (DCxWT) which applies two separate fusion rules for approximation and detail coefficients and is found to be better than spatial domain fusion methods (PCA and linear fusion) and transform domain Fusion methods (discrete and lifting wavelet transforms).
