....[18] and ultrasound scan [19] there has been little work carried out on MR imaging statistics and model based MR image analysis. For example, reference [20] discusses noise sources and their e ects in MR imaging, reference [21] presents a uni ed SNR analysis of medical imaging systems, reference [22] applies information theory to the quality evaluation of MR imaging, and reference [24] compares several currently used statistical algorithms in MR imaging. However, none of these researchers provide a complete statistical 2 analysis that can incorporate MR imaging statistics into MR image ....
....currently used statistical algorithms in MR imaging. However, none of these researchers provide a complete statistical 2 analysis that can incorporate MR imaging statistics into MR image modeling by justifying the many heuristic assumptions typically made in the literature (e.g. see reference [22]) In this section, we present a full investigation of the stochastic aspects of MR imaging and discuss its applications in MR image modeling. A complete statistical description of MR imaging, including the imaging equation and the random eld theory, is provided. Both object variability and ....

.... order to validate the use of a suitable stochastic model for MR image analysis with a specified objective, we have studied MR imaging statistics and observed several useful statistical properties of MR images [16] 19] These results are strongly supported by the analysis of actual MR image data [20]. In particular, based on the statistical properties of MR pixel images, where pixel image is defined as the observed gray level associated with the pixel, use of a SFNM distribution is justified to model the image histogram, and it is shown that the SFNM model converges to the true distribution ....
