  • Our group specialises on the research and development of antennas, RF/microwave devices, metamaterial and electromagnetic simulation/measurement techniques in various applications such as communication, imaging and sensing. (ukm.my)
  • Whether it is the automated monitoring of blood pressure of flow, the electrical signals generated during the contractions of the heart or medical images taken with a state of the art medical scanner, all these techniques produce vast amounts of data, for example in the form of time-series signals representing blood-pressure variation or the large image data-sets from a medical scanner. (southampton.ac.uk)
  • The same is true in medical and biological research, where similar biomedical monitoring techniques are used to study both healthy biological functions as well as mechanisms of disease and where ever larger studies collect ever larger data-sets of signals and images. (southampton.ac.uk)
  • In this module students will study a range of signal and image processing techniques and will learn how they can be used to analyse a range of biomedical signals and images. (southampton.ac.uk)
  • Whilst learning general and specific analysis techniques, you will also gain insight into relevant biomedical background (such as the basic physiological properties that give rise to many biomedical signals and images) and many of the engineering principles that underlie the operation of key devices that are used to record biomedical signals or generate biomedical images. (southampton.ac.uk)
  • The Golby Lab is a translational multidisciplinary group of investigators focusing on functional brain mapping using both structural and functional imaging techniques to guide neurosurgical planning and intra-operative decision making. (dana-farber.org)
  • This review also highlights emerging magnetic imaging techniques such as magnetic particle imaging (MPI), magneto-motive ultrasound imaging (MMUS), and magneto-photoacoustic imaging (MPA). (rsc.org)
  • For instance, GE Healthcare's leading AI-enabled imaging technique, dubbed TrueFidelity TM , suppresses noise from CT image data using deep learning neural networks. (emergenresearch.com)
  • Other upsides of the technique include image noise (pixel standard) deviation, low contrast detectability, streak artifact suppression, and high‐contrast spatial resolution. (emergenresearch.com)
  • Axial (Figure 1) and coronal (Figure 2) contrast-enhanced CT coned-down images demonstrated a heterogeneous mass in the right wall of the rectum with hypodense areas and calcifications. (radiologytoday.net)
  • Postcontrast axial (Figure 5) and coronal (Figure 6) MRI images demonstrated a lack of enhancement in the cystic areas with overlying mucosal enhancement. (radiologytoday.net)
  • CT scanning historically had limitations in performing direct imaging in any plane other than axial. (medscape.com)
  • However, with modern spiral CT scanning and multisection or multidetector-row CT (MDCT) scanning, the quality of sagittal and coronal images that can be reconstructed from axial data has increased significantly. (medscape.com)
  • The received signal is then processed by software to convert the scan lines into a meaningful image to be displayed at a monitor. (hindawi.com)
  • Materials and Methods: Silica nanospheres of variable size (160, 330, and 660 nm in diameter) and concentration (10 10-10 13 part/mL) were dispersed in different custom-designed agarose-based gel samples and imaged at 7.5 MHz with a conventional echograph linked to a research platform for radiofrequency signal acquisition. (cnr.it)
  • In this paper, we introduced two methods of ultrasound elastomicroscopy using water jet and osmosis loading for imaging the elasticity of biological soft tissues with high resolutions. (who.int)
  • Few cases may require using multiple probes of different units with different modes of ultrasound on the same patient. (hindawi.com)
  • The 4D shading technology gives a more realistic appearance to the rendered surface of the fetus, and delineates clear 3D/4D images. (fujifilm.com)
  • We developed a combination of nonlocal means and morphological filtering on the UDF clutter removed data in order to obtain enhanced vessel images and improved outlining. (elsevierpure.com)
  • The CNN model using frontal and lateral MIP images achieved an average accuracy of 0.890 (95% CI: 0.804-0.977), a sensitivity of 0.898 (95% CI: 0.782-1.000), a specificity of 0.907 (95% CI: 0.799-1.000), and an area under the curve of 0.963 (95% CI: 0.899-1.000). (bvsalud.org)
  • The primary advantage is that the ultrasound beam can be methodical by changing the pulse triggering time of each element. (hindawi.com)
  • A water jet was used to couple a focused 20 MHz ultrasound beam into the specimen and meanwhile served as a "soft" indenter. (who.int)
  • When bovine articular cartilage specimens were immerged in solutions with different salt concentration, a 50 MHz focused ultrasound beam was used to monitor the dynamic swelling or shrinkage process. (who.int)
  • BOSTON, Mass. And STOCKHOLM, Sweden -March 18, 2013 - For 30 years, ContextVision has driven image enhancement technology forward, delivering unequaled diagnostic image quality to clinicians. (contextvision.com)
  • We play a key role in helping manufacturers by offering clinicians unparalleled diagnostic image quality, ultimately providing patients with better care. (contextvision.com)
  • MIS has its challenges - the cost of capital equipment such as imaging systems and robots can be prohibitive, and specialized training of personnel requires a team of dedicated clinicians and facilities. (medicaldesignbriefs.com)
  • Available on Toshiba's shared service ultrasound systems, Aplio TM MX, Aplio TM XG and Xario TM XG, the new Auto IMT feature calculates the intima-media thickness of the carotid artery, helping clinicians determine a patient's risk for cardiovascular disease. (medical.canon)
