Abstract

We propose a novel medical image fusion framework, based on adaptive selectivity reconstruction and pulse coupled-neural network. The proposed method takes advantage of the multiscale analysis and multiselectivity analysis, which enables it to capture the different structures information of different modality medical images. A subjective assessment comparing our method and other medical image fusion methodes is performed. Experiments showed that our method is more robust than the others, in both visual effect and objective evaluation criteria.
