3. Accurаte segmentаtiоn оf medicаl images is critical fоr disease diagnosis and treatment planning. Different segmentation methods are used in medical imaging, such as identifying brain tumors in MRI scans. 3.1 How can you determine whether the noise present in an MRI image is Gaussian noise or salt-and-pepper noise? How does this noise affect medical image analysis, particularly segmentation? 3.2a If you are operating the MRI scanner, how can you improve the signal to noise ratio? List at least one method. 3.2b If you already acquired this image, before segmenting the brain region, preprocessing techniques can improve image quality. b.1) List two denoising techniques that can enhance the segmentation of the MRI image. b.2) Comparing acquisition-based SNR improvement vs. post-processing denoising. If you have the option to choose between improving SNR during acquisition vs. applying post-processing denoising, which would be the better choice and why? 3.3 Please provide at least three image segmentation methods, excluding thresholding, that have been applied to medical images in the course. 3.4 After segmentation, some regions of the brain appear disconnected or contain small holes inside the segmented area. What image processing method could you use to fill in the missing areas or connect small hole regions.
