A Novel Fusion Framework Based on Adaptive PCNN in NSCT Domain for Whole-Body PET and CT Images

Figure 5

The 3D reconstructions with pseudo-color of the fusion result sequences. The first row represents transverse plane. The second row represents the sagittal plane. The last row represents the coronal plane. (a) and (b) are the 3D reconstructions of the source CT and PET image sequences, respectively. (c)–(i) are the reconstructions of the fusion result sequences that are produced by (c) DWT, (d) NSCT, (e) NSCT_PCNN_1, (f) NSCT_SF_PCNN, (g) NSCT_PCNN_2, (h) NSCT_PCNN_3, and (i) the proposed framework, respectively.
