2. If you have acquired a DICOM image, it is necessary to identify the most relevant areas of the image based on the anatomical structure. 2.1 Explain briefly the differences between DICOM and standard gray-level images. Additionally, if a rectangle ROI on a given image (Fig. 1) is p1= (82, 140), p2=(182,140), p3=(80, 280), and p4= (182, 280), the ROI focuses on the key anatomical structure (heart). If the image resolution is 1.5mm x 1.5mm, what is the length and width of the heart? 2.2 Assuming you already have an ROI in this image, and a point processing function , how would you modify the image in Figure 2? What is the maximum value of the modified image? Please note that is the original image and is the modified image. 2.3 If we apply the point processing function to the image, what would be the maximum value of the resulting image and why? 2.4 What value of ‘a’ in the point processing function

4. A patient undergoes serial MRI scans at different time points to track the progression of a brain tumor. Due to slight variations in patient positioning, image registration is required to align the scans properly before analysis. 4.1 If the image is rotated by 30 degrees after the treatment, will all pixels still align perfectly with the original grid coordinates? (If yes, explain why. If no, explain why not.) If not, how do we determine the intensity values for the new off-grid pixel coordinates? (Answer this question using the method name) 4.2 As we know, image interpolation is necessary for some image registration tasks. Demonstrate how to calculate the pixel value using bilinear interpolation for a given yellow pixel in Figure 5(B). 4.3 We know that the following equation (Eq.1) is useful for affine transformation of an image. Given that a point in an image with coordinates (2,0) is found at the new coordinate (0,2) after an affine transformation, please provide one possible solution of possible transformation matrices [a, b; c, d] under the assumption that e=0 and f=0. 4.4 You still have one point at (5, 2). Use your transformation matrix calculated in 4.3, assuming that e=2, and f=3, what will be the new coordinate of (5,2) after your transformation?

Which of the following is an example of sanitization?  

This is a short answer question.  Be as concise and specific as possible.  Answer all parts of this question for full credit.  Ash Ketchum performed the following four tests on his unknown bacteria he named Pikachu.  Look at the photos.    Identify each test. First tell me which photo you are referring to (left, center, top right, bottom right) then name the test.  Describe what information each test tells you about the Pikachu unknown bacteria (include what is being detected by the reagents, any enzymes involve and what the enzyme’s job in the cell is, etc.)

A nonsense mutation is a substitution of a base in the DNA sequence that creates a stop codon. 

A missense mutation is a substitution of a base in the DNA sequence that results in a different amino acid in the protein sequence.

While on the eleven hour Delta Airlines flight to Korea from Seattle, passengers contracted the COVID-19 virus.  The CDC informed these passengers that the coronavirus is highly contagious through coughing and sneezing especially in close quarters. COVID-19 is most likely transmitted via:
