Investigating the Role of Image Fusion in Brain Tumor Classification Models Based on Machine Learning Algorithm for Personalized Medicine.

Image fusion can be performed on images either in spatial domain or frequency domain methods. Frequency domain methods will be most preferred because these methods can improve the quality of edges in an image. In image fusion, the resultant fused images will be more informative than individual input images, thus more suitable for classification problems.

An Efficient Cancer Classification Model for CT/MRI/PET Fused Images.

Objective: The aim was to study image fusion-based cancer classification models used to diagnose cancer and assess medical problems in earlier stages that help doctors or health care professionals to make the treatment plan accordingly.

Methods: In this work, a novel image fusion method based on Curvelet transform is developed. CT and PET scan images of benign type tumors were fused together using the proposed fusion algorithm and the same way, MRI and PET scan images of malignant type tumors were fused together to achieve the combined benefits of individual imaging techniques.

A case of human leukocyte antigen B-27-associated ocular hypotony successfully treated with golimumab.

A 42-year-old male presented to us after an episode of acute anterior human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-B27-associated uveitis, and intraocular pressure (IOP) in the right eye was 4 mmHg. Ultrasound biomicroscopy revealed ciliary body edema with supraciliary effusion. He was on a frequent topical corticosteroid, and oral steroid in addition to receiving a periocular injection depot corticosteroid 20 days back.

Protocols for Improvement of Black Pepper (Piper nigrum L.) Utilizing Biotechnological Tools.

Black pepper, Piper nigrum L., the "King of spices" is the most widely used spice growing in the South-Western region of India. The humid tropical evergreen forest bordering the Malabar Coast (Western Ghats is one of the hot spot areas of plant bio-diversity on earth) is its center of origin and diversity.

Cryopreservation of in vitro grown shoots of ginger (Zingiber officinale Rosc.).

An efficient cryopreservation technique for in vitro grown shoots of ginger (Zingiber officinale Rosc) was developed based on encapsulation dehydration, encapsulation vitrification and vitrification procedures. Pregrowth and serial preculture were needed to obtain the best regrowth for all techniques. The vitrification procedure resulted in higher regrowth (80%) when compared to encapsulation vitrification (66%) and encapsulation dehydration (41%).
