      Atherosclerotic plaque motion analysis from ultrasound videos 

      Murillo, S. E.; Pattichis, Marios S.; Loizou, Christos P.; Pattichis, Constantinos S.; Kyriacou, Efthyvoulos C.; Constantinides, Anthony G.; Nicolaïdes, Andrew N. (2006)
      In this paper, we describe a collection of algorithms that are used to provide motion trajectory estimates from atherosclerotic plaque ultrasound videos. Our approach is based on the use of four different optical flow ...

      Manual and automated media and intima thickness measurements of the common carotid artery 

      Loizou, Christos P.; Pattichis, Constantinos S.; Nicolaïdes, Andrew N.; Pantzaris, Marios C. (2009)
      The intima-media thickness (IMT) of the common carotid artery (CCA) is widely used as an early indicator of the development of cardiovascular disease (CVD). It was proposed but not thoroughly investigated that the media ...

      Ultrasound image texture analysis of the intima and media layers of the common carotid artery and its correlation with age and gender 

      Loizou, Christos P.; Pantzaris, Marios C.; Pattichis, Marios S.; Kyriacou, Efthyvoulos C.; Pattichis, Constantinos S. (2009)
      The intima-media thickness (IMT) of the common carotid artery (CCA) is widely used as an early indicator of cardiovascular disease (CVD). It was proposed but not thoroughly investigated that the composition and texture of ...

      Ultrasound imaging media layer texture analysis of the carotid artery 

      Loizou, Christos P.; Pantzaris, Marios C.; Nicolaïdes, Andrew N.; Spanias, Andreas S.; Pattichis, Marios S.; Pattichis, Constantinos S. (2008)
      The intima-media thickness (IMT) of the common carotid artery (CCA) is widely used as an early indicator of cardiovascular disease (CVD). It was proposed but not thoroughly investigated that the media layer (ML), its ...
