      An integrated system for the segmentation of atherosclerotic carotid plaque 

      Loizou, Christos P.; Pattichis, Constantinos S.; Pantzaris, Marios C.; Nicolaïdes, Andrew N. (2007)
      In this paper, we propose and evaluate an integrated system for the segmentation of atherosclerotic plaque in ultrasound imaging of the carotid artery based on normalization, speckle reduction filtering, and four different ...

      Media thickness measurement of the common carotid artery 

      Loizou, Christos P.; Pattichis, Constantinos S.; Pantzaris, Marios C.; Nicolaïdes, Andrew N.; Georgiou, Niki; Kyriacou, Efthyvoulos C. (2007)
      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 ...

      Quality evaluation of ultrasound imaging in the carotid artery based on normalization and speckle reduction filtering 

      Loizou, Christos P.; Pattichis, Constantinos S.; Pantzaris, Marios C.; Tyllis, Theodosis K.; Nicolaïdes, Andrew N. (2006)
      Image quality is important when evaluating ultrasound images of the carotid for the assessment of the degree of atherosclerotic disease, or when transferring images through a telemedicine channel, and/or in other image ...

      Κυκλοφορικό σύστημα : προς μια νέα διδακτική προσέγγιση υπό το πρίσμα της θεωρίας της δραστηριότητας 

      Χρίστου, Χριστιάνα Μ. (Πανεπιστήμιο Κύπρου, Σχολή Κοινωνικών Επιστημών και Επιστημών Αγωγής / University of Cyprus, Faculty of Social Sciences and Education, 2015-05)
      Η παρούσα έρευνα εξέτασε τη συγκριτική αποτελεσματικότητα μιας εναλλακτικής διδακτικής προσέγγισης για την ενότητα «Κυκλοφορικό Σύστημα» σε σχέση με την παραδοσιακή διδακτική προσέγγιση, όπως προτείνεται στα διδακτικά ...
