The general goal is to achieve a deeper understanding of natural image statistics because from this knowledge it should be possible to explain the behavior of the visual cortex and propose new alternatives in a number of applications in image processing and computer vision in which the basic problem is the choice of an appropriate signal representation. The range of basic and applied topics in which we are currently working include: * Mathematical models of human vision * Statistical image models * Image distortion metrics * Image coding * Motion estimation * Video coding * Image restoration * Color representation

Unbiased standard magnetic resonance imaging template brain volume for normal population. These volumes were created using data from ICBM project. 6 different templates are available: * ICBM 2009a Nonlinear Symmetric - template which includes T1w,T2w,PDw modalities, also T2 relaxometry (T2 values calculated for each subject using single dual echo PD/T2 scan), and tissue probabilities maps. Also included lobe atlas used for ANIMAL+INSECT segmentation, brain mask, eye mask and face mask. Intensity inhomogeneity was performed using N3 version 1.10.1. * ICBM 2009a Nonlinear Asymmetric template - template which includes T1w,T2w,PDw modalities, and tissue probabilities maps. Intensity inhomogeneity was performed using N3 version 1.10.1.

Also included lobe atlas used for ANIMAL+INSECT segmentation, brain mask, eye mask and face mask. Intensity inhomogeneity was performed using N3 version 1.11. Sampling is different from 2009a template. * ICBM 2009c Nonlinear Asymmetric template - template which includes T1w,T2w,PDw modalities, and tissue probabilities maps. Intensity inhomogeneity was performed using N3 version 1.11 Also included brain mask, eye mask and face mask.Sampling is different from 2009a template. All templates are describing the same anatomy, but sampling is different. Also, different versions of N3 algorithm produces slightly different tissue probability maps. Tools for using these atlases can be found in the Software section. Viewing the multiple atlas volumes online requires Java browser support.

The vision of the JHU ICMIC is to combine state-of-the-art imaging capabilities with powerful molecular biology techniques to define strategies with intent to cure. It has drawn upon its human resources at JHU to create a center consisting of a multidisciplinary group of premier individuals with diverse skills focused on translating molecular capabilities into imaging possibilities with the single purpose of understanding and curing cancer. Nearly all of the investigators participating in this ICMIC have interactive collaborative projects with one or more of the other investigators. The synergism generated by the collective skills of this unique group of individuals will lead to significant advances in the understanding of cancer and its treatment. The JHU ICMIC structure consists of four interactive and closely related research components focused on hypoxia, HIF-1, and exploiting the hypoxia response element to target cancer cells through choline kinase inhibition. These research components are anchored by the participation of world renowned expertise in HIF-1. The research components utilize MR, PET and Optical Imaging technology to understand cancer vascularization, invasion and metastasis, to achieve effective cancer therapy. The center has selected developmental projects which are highly relevant to the goals of the ICMIC and interactive with the research components. Five resources devoted to adminstration, molecular biology, imaging, probes, and translational application provide the infrastructure to support the research activities of the ICMIC. Research Components in the JHU ICMIC: - Combining Anti-angiogenic therapy with siRNA targeting of choline kinase. - Imaging the Role of HIF-1 in Breast Cancer Progression - Imaging and Targeting Hypoxia in Solid Tumors - Molecular and Functional Imaging of the HER-2/neu Receptor The following are developmental projects currently taking place in ICMIC 1.

A combined tissue bank and core facility which provides annotated human tissue samples for research purposes. The facility also offers high quality tissue procurement, tissue microarray, histology, immunohistochemistry, photomicroscopy, and laser capture microdissection services for both human and animal tissues to biomedical investigators conducting non-clinical research studies. The TPHC offers instruction to researchers on how to incorporate human tissue into research activities and how to work within the boundaries of patient confidentiality and other regulatory issues. The purpose of the TPHC is to provide tissue collection and processing services to intramural and extramural researchers studying cancer and other diseases. Normal, diseased, benign and malignant tissues are obtained, and matched normal adjacent tissues and tissues from different organ sites from the same donor can also be provided when available. Tissue samples are prepared according to user-specified protocols and can be fresh in a medium of choice, fixed in formalin, quick frozen in the vapor phase of liquid nitrogen or snap-frozen by plunging the sample into liquid nitrogen. Frozen tissues are held in the vapor phase of the liquid nitrogen. Tissues can also be embedded, cut and mounted on slides, and stained upon request. Tissue Microarray (TMA) services are offered for the design and construction of TMAs meeting specific project needs. Basic demographic data (age, race, gender) and histopathologic data from Surgical Pathology Reports are provided by the TPHC with the tissues.
