Microscope Image Processing

“Such a book is much-needed!!!” – Al Bovik, ECE Dept. Head, Univ. of Texas; Editor of Handbook of Image and Video Processing (AP 2005) “My impression is that this book would be very useful and approachable to microscopists/biologists and to image processing specialists working with them. … I would suspect a high market potential.”– Jeff Pierce, PhD, R&D Staff Member, Image Science and Machine Vision Group, Oak Ridge National Lab “The authors propose to write a book…[with] a good balance between theoretical framework and practical applications… The authors are certainly qualified for the task. In particular, Dr. Castleman’s expertise and recognition in this arena will likely evoke good contributions from leading experts in the field.”– Dr. Alberto Goldszal, U. of PA Health System, Dir. of Medical Informatics, Dept. of Radiology “I believe [there is] a large community who will likely find a book like this to be of technical relevance to their work and a good reference… The concept of focusing on the image processing applications in microscopy is good and i do think that this will make the resource valuable.”–Kenneth Tobin, Oak Ridge Nat’l Lab, Group Leader/Corporate Research Fellow “It would be very helpful to have a practical guide to digital image processing since much of the material is currently embedded in software program guides available only with the purchase of high end graphics programs or in technical journals not generally read by biologists, biochemists, and other emerging users of advanced optical imaging techniques. The technical soundness of the proposal is well thought-out.”–Dr. Paul Kulesa, Dir. of Imaging, Stowers Inst. for Medical Research

Associate Professor Fatima Merchant works at Computer Engineering Technology and Computational Health Informatics in Houston, TX, USA. Kenneth R. Castleman is the president of Advanced Digital Imaging Research (ADIR), the author of the canonical textbook Digital Image Processing ISBN 0-13-211467-4 and an authority in the field of image processing and pattern recognition.
