Exploring the complementarity of THz pulse imaging and DCE-MRIs: towards a unified multi-channel classification & a deep learning framework

• This is a literature review paper, aiming to provide a survey of recent advances in biomedical image analysis and classification from emergent imaging modalities such as terahertz (THz) pulse imaging (TPI) and dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) and identify their unde rlining commonalities.• Highlights of our review include a generic approach for treating two-dimensional pixel as well as three-dimensional voxel datasets on the basis of identified amplitude and phase features in the respective time-domain signatures of such heterogeneous datasets; this enables t he development of a unified multi-channel signal processing framework for biomedical image analysis.
