A Sonification Method for Medical Images to Support Diagnostic Imaging

摘要

Computer Aided Diagnosis (CAD) has become one of the most important for medical activity. While various CAD image become more exact, the larger amount of high-definition images are provided. Radiologists have to cost their time and efforts to investigate these medical images. It is strongly required to reduce their burden without debasing the quality of imaging diagnosis. In this paper, we propose a method to generate sound information based on the image features and discuss their sounds for diagnosis. Sonification technique helps for attention rousing and the fatigue reduction for medical imaging diagnosis.
