MATLAB and Simulink for Medical Imaging

Design, develop, and test medical imaging algorithms and devices

MATLAB^® and Simulink^® let you design, develop, and test medical imaging algorithms and devices while complying with industry regulations and standards. You can validate MATLAB and Simulink products for medical devices to satisfy FDA/CE regulations and conform to standards such as IEC 62304 in the development process.

With MATLAB and Simulink, you can:

Prototype and implement high-performance image formation and reconstruction techniques
Create image processing algorithms for computer vision, radiomics, and computer-aided diagnosis
Train and validate explainable artificial intelligence (AI) and deep learning models
Deploy and share medical imaging applications in the cloud
Design and simulate antennas, arrays, power systems, and control systems for medical imaging devices

“Simulink helps system architects and hardware designers communicate. It is like a shared language that enables us to exchange knowledge, ideas, and designs. Simulink and HDL Coder enable us to focus on developing our algorithms and refining our design via simulation, not on checking VHDL syntax and coding rules.”
Marcel van Bakel, Philips Healthcare

Accelerating Image Formation and Reconstruction

MATLAB and Simulink provide a combination of image reconstruction and formation capabilities that let you create high-quality medical images from raw data such as k-space (MRI), RF signals (ultrasound), and projection rays (CT). You can quickly prototype different techniques and validate their performance. After validation, these algorithms can be optimized for fast image acquisition by implementing them in CPUs, GPUs, and FPGAs using code generation.

Developing Advanced Medical Image Processing Algorithms

With the extensive image processing capabilities of MATLAB and Simulink, you can import, visualize, and analyze medical images in their native format such as 3D (MRI, CT), real-time (ultrasound, endoscopy), multimodal (PET, SPECT), or high resolution (digital pathology). The built-in interactive apps provide intuitive workflows for computer vision, radiomics, and computer-aided diagnosis tasks. For productization, the algorithms can be automatically translated into optimized, high-performance code for target hardware.

Designing Medical Imaging Devices

With MATLAB and Simulink, you can design medical imaging device parts and control systems using modeling and simulation. You can design multidomain components such as MRI coils, ultrasound transducer arrays, RF power systems, as well as control systems for motors, thermal management, and X-ray accelerator voltages. Also, you can test the correct operation of these components in a virtual environment before building expensive hardware prototypes.
