Abstract: Medical image fusion is defined as combining two or more images from single or multiple imaging modalities like ultrasound, computerised tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, single photon emission computed tomography, positron emission tomography and mammography. Medical image fusion is used to optimise the storage capacity, minimises the redundancy and to improve quality of the image. The goal of medical image fusion is to combine complementary information from multiple imaging modalities of the same scene. This review paper describes about different imaging modalities, fusion methods and major application domains.
