Abstract
Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) have been widely studied for biomedical applications due to their excellent properties, such as good biocompatibility, degradability, interlayer ion exchangeability, high loading capacity, pH-responsive release, and large specific surface area. Furthermore, the flexibility in the structural composition and ease of surface modification of LDHs makes it possible to develop specifically functionalized LDHs to meet the needs of different applications. In this review, the recent advances of LDHs for biomedical applications, which include LDH-based drug delivery systems, LDHs for cancer diagnosis and therapy, tissue engineering, coatings, functional membranes, and biosensors, are comprehensively discussed. From these various biomedical research fields, it can be seen that there is great potential and possibility for the use of LDHs in biomedical applications. However, at the same time, it must be recognized that the actual clinical translation of LDHs is still very limited. Therefore, the current limitations of related research on LDHs are discussed by combining limited examples of actual clinical translation with requirements for clinical translation of biomaterials. Finally, an outlook on future research related to LDHs is provided.

Abstract
For Covid-19 suspected cases, it is critical to diagnose them accurately and rapidly so that they can be isolated and provided with required medical care. A self-learning automation model will be helpful to diagnose the COVID-19 suspected individual using chest X-rays. AI based designs, which utilizes chest X-rays, have been recently proposed for the detection of COVID-19. However, these approaches are either using non-public database or having a complex design. In this study we have proposed a novel framework for real time detection of coronavirus patients without manual intervention. In our framework, we have introduced a 3-step process in which initially K-means clustering, and feature extraction is performed as a data pre-processing step. In the second step, the selected features are optimized by a novel feature optimization approach based on hybrid differential evolution algorithm and particle swarm optimization. The optimized features are then feed forwarded to SVM classifier. Empirical results show that our proposed model is able to achieve 99.34% accuracy. This shows that our model is robust and sustainable in diagnosis of COVID-19 infected individual.

Abstract
An image fusion based on multimodal medical images renders a considerable enhancement in the quality of fused images. An effective image fusion technique produces output images by preserving all the viable and prominent information gathered from the source images without any introduction of flaws or unnecessary distortions. This review paper intends to bring out the process of image fusion, its utilization in the medical domain, merits, and demerits and reviews the perspective of multimodal medical image fusion. It also discusses the involvement of various medical entities like medical resonance imaging (MRI), positron emission tomography (PET), and computed tomography (CT). The usefulness of such modalities is presented, suggesting plausible hybrid modality combinations which could greatly enhance image fusion. This review also discusses innovative dispositions in the medical image fusion techniques for the achievement of incisively desired, quality images focused on fusion with wavelet transform and use of independent component analysis (ICA) and principal component analysis (PCA) techniques for the purpose denoising and data dimension reductions. Additionally, the future-prospects of an ideal technique for medical image fusion through the utilization of various medical modalities have been also discussed in this review paper.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Skin cancer is the commonest form of cancer in the worldwide population. Non-invasive and non-contact imaging modalities are being used for the screening of melanoma and other cutaneous malignancies to endorse early detection and prevention of the disease. Traditionally it has been a problem for medical personnel to differentiate melanoma, dysplastic nevi and basal cell carcinoma (BCC) diseases from one another due to the confusing appearance and similarity in the characteristics of the pigmented lesions. The paper reports an integrated method developed for identifying these skin diseases from the dermoscopic images. METHODS The proposed integrated computer-aided method has been employed for the identification of each of these diseases using recursive feature elimination (RFE) based layered structured multiclass image classification technique. Prior to the classification, different quantitative features have been extracted by analyzing the shape, the border irregularity, the texture and the color of the skin lesions, using different image processing tools. Primarily, a combination of gray level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM) and a proposed fractal-based regional texture analysis (FRTA) algorithm has been used for the quantification of textural information. The performance of the framework has been evaluated using a layered structure classification model using support vector machine (SVM) classifier with radial basis function (RBF). RESULTS The performance of the morphological skin lesion segmentation algorithm has been evaluated by estimating the pixel level sensitivity (Sen) of 0.9172, 0.9788 specificity (Spec), 0.9521 accuracy (ACU), along with the image similarity measuring indices as Jaccard similarity index (JSI) of 0.8562 and Dice similarity coefficient (DSC) of 0.9142 with respect to the corresponding ground truth (GT) images. The quantitative features extracted from the proposed feature extraction algorithms have been employed for the proposed multi-class skin disease identification. The proposed layered structure identifies all the three classes of skin diseases with a highly acceptable classification accuracy of 98.99%, 97.54% and 99.65% for melanoma, dysplastic nevi and BCC respectively. CONCLUSION To overcome the difficulties of proper diagnosis of diseases based on visual evaluation, the proposed integrated system plays an important role by quantifying the effective features and identifying the diseases with higher degree of accuracy. This combined approach of quantitative and qualitative analysis not only increases the diagnostic accuracy, but also provides some important information not obtainable from qualitative assessment alone.

Abstract
Radiology (imaging) and imaging-guided interventions, which provide multi-parametric morphologic and functional information, are playing an increasingly significant role in precision medicine. Radiologists are trained to understand the imaging phenotypes, transcribe those observations (phenotypes) to correlate with underlying diseases and to characterize the images. However, in order to understand and characterize the molecular phenotype (to obtain genomic information) of solid heterogeneous tumours, the advanced sequencing of those tissues using biopsy is required. Thus, radiologists image the tissues from various views and angles in order to have the complete image phenotypes, thereby acquiring a huge amount of data. Deriving meaningful details from all these radiological data becomes challenging and raises the big data issues. Therefore, interest in the application of radiomics has been growing in recent years as it has the potential to provide significant interpretive and predictive information for decision support. Radiomics is a combination of conventional computer-aided diagnosis, deep learning methods, and human skills, and thus can be used for quantitative characterization of tumour phenotypes. This paper discusses the overview of radiomics workflow, the results of various radiomics-based studies conducted using various radiological images such as computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and positron-emission tomography (PET), the challenges we are facing, and the potential contribution of radiomics towards precision medicine.

Abstract
Medical image processing has become a major player in the world of automatic tumour region detection and is tantamount to the incipient stages of computer aided design. Saliency detection is a crucial application of medical image processing, and serves in its potential aid to medical practitioners by making the affected area stand out in the foreground from the rest of the background image. The algorithm developed here is a new approach to the detection of saliency in a three dimensional multi channel MR image sequence for the glioblastoma multiforme (a form of malignant brain tumour). First we enhance the three channels, FLAIR (Fluid Attenuated Inversion Recovery), T2 and T1C (contrast enhanced with gadolinium) to generate a pseudo coloured RGB image. This is then converted to the CIE L*a*b* color space. Processing on cubes of sizes k = 4, 8, 16, the L*a*b* 3D image is then compressed into volumetric units; each representing the neighbourhood information of the surrounding 64 voxels for k = 4, 512 voxels for k = 8 and 4096 voxels for k = 16, respectively. The spatial distance of these voxels are then compared along the three major axes to generate the novel 3D saliency map of a 3D image, which unambiguously highlights the tumour region. The algorithm operates along the three major axes to maximise the computation efficiency while minimising loss of valuable 3D information. Thus the 3D multichannel MR image saliency detection algorithm is useful in generating a uniform and logistically correct 3D saliency map with pragmatic applicability in Computer Aided Detection (CADe). Assignment of uniform importance to all three axes proves to be an important factor in volumetric processing, which helps in noise reduction and reduces the possibility of compromising essential information. The effectiveness of the algorithm was evaluated over the BRATS MICCAI 2015 dataset having 274 glioma cases, consisting both of high grade and low grade GBM. The results were compared with that of the 2D saliency detection algorithm taken over the entire sequence of brain data. For all comparisons, the Area Under the receiver operator characteristic (ROC) Curve (AUC) has been found to be more than 0.99 ± 0.01 over various tumour types, structures and locations.

Abstract
The automatic computerized detection of regions of interest (ROI) is an important step in the process of medical image processing and analysis. The reasons are many, and include an increasing amount of available medical imaging data, existence of inter-observer and inter-scanner variability, and to improve the accuracy in automatic detection in order to assist doctors in diagnosing faster and on time. A novel algorithm, based on visual saliency, is developed here for the identification of tumor regions from MR images of the brain. The GBM saliency detection model is designed by taking cue from the concept of visual saliency in natural scenes. A visually salient region is typically rare in an image, and contains highly discriminating information, with attention getting immediately focused upon it. Although color is typically considered as the most important feature in a bottom-up saliency detection model, we circumvent this issue in the inherently gray scale MR framework. We develop a novel pseudo-coloring scheme, based on the three MRI sequences, viz. FLAIR, T2 and T1C (contrast enhanced with Gadolinium). A bottom-up strategy, based on a new pseudo-color distance and spatial distance between image patches, is defined for highlighting the salient regions in the image. This multi-channel representation of the image and saliency detection model help in automatically and quickly isolating the tumor region, for subsequent delineation, as is necessary in medical diagnosis. The effectiveness of the proposed model is evaluated on MRI of 80 subjects from the BRATS database in terms of the saliency map values. Using ground truth of the tumor regions for both high- and low- grade gliomas, the results are compared with four highly referred saliency detection models from literature. In all cases the AUC scores from the ROC analysis are found to be more than 0.999 ± 0.001 over different tumor grades, sizes and positions.
