method are shown in gure 7.1(e) and 7.1(f). Blind inpainting with Poisson noise for the Cameraman image with

Figure 7.3 demonstrates blind inpainting with the Rayleigh multiplicative noise model for a transversal ultrasound (US) image of the carotid artery. The noisy RF envelope image is shown in gure 7.3(a). The observed image with 75% of the pixels missing is shown in gure 7.3(b). The estimate using the proposed method is shown in gure 7.3(c), with the diagonal proles shown in gure 7.3(e). We can see from the result of the binary XOR operation between the sampling mask and its estimate shown in gure 7.3(d), that the incorrectly estimated bits are in the region of low pixel values in the RF image. The computation time was 119.3 s for an image of size 201 × 201.
7.3.2 Outlier maps for lumen segmentation
We applied our blind inpainting method on an RF ultrasound image, assuming that it was already masked, to determine which pixels were statistically relevant and which ones had values that did not t the distribution. The results obtained with the transversal and longitudinal images of the carotid artery are presented in gure 7.4 and 7.5, respectively. The values of the parameters used were the same as those used in the previous section.

Carotid transversal 0.139 0.074 2.49 Carotid longitudinal 0.21 0.132 3.67 IVUS frame no. 5 0.274 0.0065 4.79 IVUS frame no. 100 0.268 0.0102 5.22
In the estimated outlier maps in gure 7.4(c) and 7.5(c), the white pixels represent the mask pixels estimated incorrectly (the reference mask is assumed to be all ones, i.e. all pixels are observed). Comparing these outlier maps with the respective RF and denoised images, it can be seen that the greatest concentration of outlier values is in the regions that correspond to the lumen. We also present the histograms for the speckle noise eld computed by element-wise division of the observed image, by the denoised image
η =ˆyx/
ˆ
. The Kullback–Leibler divergences between the observed histograms and the analytical Rayleigh distributions for the inliers and outliers from the ultrasound images are summarized in table 7.2.

In gure 7.4(d) and 7.5(d), we present the histograms for the noise eld over the pixel locations that are considered statistically valid, compared with the analytical probability density function for the Rayleigh distribution with parameter equal to one. For the transversal image, the Kullback–Leibler (KL) divergence between the histogram and the analytical distributions was found to be 0.074, with
3.92%
of pixels labeled as outliers. Over the pixels marked as outliers, the KL divergence with respect to the analytical Rayleigh distribution increased to 2.49. For the longitudinal image,
of the pixels were marked as outliers, and the KL divergences with
1%
respect to the analytical Rayleigh PDF were 0.132 over the set of statistically valid pixels, and 3.67 over the outliers. The difference from the analytical curves can be seen in gure 7.4(e) and 7.5(e).
We also ran the proposed method on two images from the intravascular ultrasound dataset from [7], and the results are presented in gures 7.6 and 7.7. Figures 7.6(a) and 7.7(a) show the RF images, gures 7.6(b) and 7.7(b) show the respective denoised images, and gures 7.6(c) and 7.7(c) show the respective estimated outlier masks. It can be seen from the outlier masks that the outliers are concentrated in the regions corresponding to the lumen in gures 7.6 and 7.7. The histograms of the observed inliers and outliers, along with the analytical Rayleigh distribution are shown in gure 7.6(d) and (e), and in gure 7.7(d) and (e).

Blind inpainting applied on intravascular ultrasound image number 100 to detect outliers: (a) longitudinal RF image of carotid artery, (b) denoised image, (c) positions of detected outliers, (d) histogram of speckle at valid pixels, compared with the Rayleigh distribution, and (e) histogram of speckle at outlier positions, compared with the Rayleigh distribution.
7.4 Conclusions and future work
We have presented an iterative method for image inpainting without knowing the locations of the missing pixels, based on alternating minimization to simultaneously estimate the image and observation mask. The proposed method has been extended to the Rayleigh speckle noise model as well, and was found to be more accurate than transforming the model into an additive one without taking into account the respective statistics. It was experimentally found that applying the inpainting method to ultrasound images of the carotid artery and intravascular ultrasound images without loss of pixels, produced an outlier map which indicated which pixel values are reliable and which pixels are outliers. It was found that the pixels detected as outliers corresponded roughly to the lumen.
Based on the results obtained with real ultrasound images, current and future research includes using the estimation of masks to help in obtaining optimal sampling patterns. A robust mathematical formulation for the segmentation problem is the subject of current and future research.

Differential imaging for the detection of extra-
luminal blood perfusion due to the vasa vasorum
E Gerardo Mendizabal-Ruiz and Ioannis A Kakadiaris
The inammation and disruption of coronary atherosclerotic plaques is the primary cause of acute coronary events such as heart attacks. Several studies have shown that the proliferation of the vasa vasorum (VV) in atherosclerotic plaques is strongly correlated with the degree of plaque inammation, and it is related to the processes that lead to plaque destabilization and rupture. Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) is a catheter-based medical imaging system that is capable of providing cross-sectional images of arteries. Contrast agents are injected into the bloodstream during IVUS interventions to trace the blood ow and nd any evidence of extra-luminal perfusion, which may be an indication of the VV. The detection of extra-luminal perfusion is performed by comparing the echogenicity of localized regions of a vessel wall and plaque before and after the injection of contrast agents. However, manually performing temporal analysis of variations in the echogenicity is not feasible for more than a handful of IVUS frames due to the amount of labor and concentration involved in assessing changes that may be subtle to the human eye. Computer-aided techniques may be a natural solution to this problem, although they present their own difculties, which include overcoming the variety of motion artifacts present in IVUS sequences. In this chapter, we present an imaging protocol for contrast imaging in IVUS along with the computational techniques for image stabilization, which allow the detection and localization of changes in echogenicity by differential imaging. We present results on ve human cases and four animal cases for which histology was available. These studies illustrate the methods ability to quantify VV density in vivo.
