Measurement of the correlation coefficients between extracted features from CT-scan and MRI images

Nowadays applying computer in image processing is rapidly increasing to resolve shortcomings of medical images. Image features modify its image contained image information. The aim of the present study was to find correlation between CT-scan and MRI image's features.
In this descriptive study, it was used 1458 CT and MRI images of 6 patients (3 females and 3 males) referred to Golestan Hospital in Ahwaz, Iran. After collecting image, pre-processing and feature extract were performed. Then, the image's features were analyzed and correlation coefficients were calculated using Pearson correlation.
There was significant relation between most of the extracted features of the CT-scan and the MR (T1-weighted) images (P The results of this study revealed that there is a significant relationship between extracted features of CT-scan and MRI images, which leads to use a similar algorithm for classification and segmentation studies.
