A new object-oriented framework simplifies medical image registration, fusion, and visualization. This software framework enhances code reuse and maintainability, demonstrated through three effective applications.

Area of Science:

  • Computer Science
  • Medical Imaging
  • Software Engineering

Background:

  • Developing robust software for medical image analysis is complex.
  • Existing frameworks may lack flexibility for diverse imaging tasks.
  • Integrating registration, fusion, and visualization requires specialized tools.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present an object-oriented framework for image registration, fusion, and visualization.
  • To leverage the model-view-controller paradigm for enhanced software design.
  • To demonstrate the framework's utility through practical applications.

Main Methods:

  • Developed an object-oriented framework using the model-view-controller paradigm.
  • Incorporated design patterns for code reuse, complexity management, and portability.
