Velocity analysis of simultaneous-source data using high-resolution semblance: Coping with the strong noise

Direct imaging of simultaneous-source (or blended) data, without the need of deblending, requires a precise subsurface velocity model. In this paper, we focus on the velocity analysis of simultaneous-source data using the normal moveout-based velocity picking approach.We demonstrate that it is possible to obtain a precise velocity model directly...

Articulated Whole-Body Atlases for Small Animal Image Analysis: Construction and Applications

Purpose Using three publicly available small-animal atlases (Sprague–Dawley rat, MOBY, and Digimouse), we built three articulated atlases and present several applications in the scope of molecular imaging. Procedures Major bones/bone groups were manually segmented for each atlas skeleton. Then, a kinematic model for each atlas was built: each...
