4
Analog Camera Signal
5
Digitization: Transformation of video signal into digital image
6
I(r,c) = Brightness of image at the pt (r,c)
Image is accessed as a 2-D array of data, where each data point is referred to as a pixel Notation: I(r,c) = Brightness of image at the pt (r,c) where r = row, and c = column

1) Imaging with Gamma-Rays
Imaging with gamma-rays is done by measuring the rays as they are emitted from the object. In Nuclear medicine using Positron emission tomography (PET), a patient is injected with a radioactive isotope and as it decays gamma rays are detected and measured.
12
PET PET studies of glucose metabolism to map human brain's response in performing different tasks. Subjects looking at a visual scene activated visual cortex (arrow), listening to a mystery story with language and music activated left and right auditory cortices (arrows), counting backwards from 100 by sevens activated frontal cortex (arrows), recalling previously learned objects activated hippocampus bilaterally (arrows), and touching thumb to fingers of right hand activated left motor cortex and supplementary motor system (arrows).
13
2) Imaging with X-Rays X-rays are used in medical diagnostics by using film that responds to x-ray energy which is placed between the energy source and the patient.

Computerized Tomography
One “slice” of a CT image of a patient’s abdomen, multiple 2-D image “slices” are taken at various angles and are then assembled to create a 3-D image
