IMAGING SPECTROSCOPY [9 records]

Record 1 2019-06-14

English

Subject field(s)
  • Diagnostic Procedures (Medicine)
  • Nuclear Medicine
CONT

Magnetic resonance spectroscopy(MRS) is related to magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)... Whereas MRI provides information on the structure of the brain, MRS shows how certain biochemicals used in metabolism are distributed within the brain.

CONT

La espectroscopía por resonancia magnética (ERM) es un examen que permite el estudio del metabolismo cerebral in vivo y entrega información bioquímica no invasiva de los tejidos. La ERM registra las señales de los metabolitos presentes en el tejido cerebral.

CONT

La espectroscopia por resonancia magnética sólo se diferencia de la RM [resonancia magnética] convencional en la forma en que presenta la información, en lugar de una imagen anatómica presenta un espectro de componentes bioquímicos, correspondientes a los principales metabolitos cerebrales [...]

Record 6 2002-03-21

English

Subject field(s)
  • Remote Sensing
DEF

The science and techniques involved in using imaging spectrometers.

CONT

Imaging spectrometry ... is the field in remote sensing where sensors acquire image data in many, narrow and contiguous wavebands. The aim is to produce on a pixel by pixel basis radiance and reflectance data, which can be used to model physical properties of the Earth surface. This data forms an addition to subsurface geophysical data.

OBS

Imaging spectroscopy has many names in the remote sensing community, including imaging spectrometry, hyperspectral, and ultraspectral imaging. Spectroscopy is the study of electromagnetic radiation. Spectrometry is derived from spectro-photometry, the measure of photons as a function of wavelength, a term used for years in astronomy. However, spectrometry is becoming a term used to indicate the measurement of non-light quantities, such as in mass spectrometry(e. g. Ball, 1995). Hyper means excessive, but no imaging spectrometer in use can hardly be considered hyper-spectral, after all, a couple of hundred channels pales in comparison to truly high resolution spectrometer with millions of channels. Ultraspectral is beyond hyperspectral, a lofty goal that has not yet been reached.... Researchers at the USGS Spectroscopy Lab are studying and applying methods for identifying and mapping materials through spectroscopic remote sensing(called imaging spectroscopy, hyperspectral imaging, imaging spectrometry, ultraspectral imaging, etc), on the Earth and throughout the solar system using laboratory, airborne and spacecraft spectrometers.

imaging spectrometry; imaging spectroscopy; hyperspectral imaging : terms officially approved by the RADARSAT-2 Terminology Approval Group(RTAG).

English

Subject field(s)
  • Optics
CONT

Programs for monitoring the Earth's resources from space using multidimensional imaging spectroscopy(MDIS). The foundation of the technique requires the acquisition of spectral data to create topographical maps of anything from infestations of vegetation to water drainage. When coupled with images of a field-of-view the process is also referred to as "multispectral" and "hyperspectral" Imaging. It is a very powerful tool that can also contribute to down-to-earth applications.
