Atherosclerotic carotid wall segmentation in ultrasound images using Markov random fields
(2010)This work explores the segmentation of the intima-media complex (IMC) of the common carotid artery (CCA) wall for the evaluation of the intima media thickness (IMT) on B-mode ultrasound images. The IMT provides important ...

Atherosclerotic plaque ultrasound video encoding, wireless transmission, and quality assessment using H.264
(2011)We propose a unifying framework for efficient encoding, transmission, and quality assessment of atherosclerotic plaque ultrasound video. The approach is based on a spatially varying encoding scheme, where video-slice ...

Comparative evaluation of despeckle filtering in ultrasound imaging of the carotid artery
(2005)It is well-known that speckle is a multiplicative noise that degrades the visual evaluation in ultrasound imaging. The recent advancements in ultrasound instrumentation and portable ultrasound devices necessitate the need ...

Completely automated multiresolution edge snapper (CAMES): A new technique for an accurate carotid ultrasound IMT measurement and its validation on a multi-institutional database
(2011)Since 2005, our research team has been developing automated techniques for carotid artery (CA) wall segmentation and intima-media thickness (IMT) measurement. We developed a snake-based technique (which we named CULEX 1,2), ...

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

Article
Multiscale amplitude-modulation frequency-modulation (AM-FM) texture analysis of ultrasound images of the intima and media layers of the carotid artery
(2011)The intima-media thickness (IMT) of the common carotid artery (CCA) is widely used as an early indicator of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Clinically, there is strong interest in identifying how the composition and texture ...

Suggesting a sonographic index to measure ultrasound diaphragmatic MRR
(Springer Verlag, 2016)Measurements of ultrasound diaphragmatic motion may provide important and essential information about diaphragmatic fatigue. In this work, we propose a semiautomated analysis system for measuring the diaphragmatic motion ...
