Amblyopia is a common visual related eye disease in childhood. Although traditional treatment to amblyopia is effective, there are still some disadvantages, such as poor compliance, easily leading to the healthy eyesight problem, the poor recovery of binocular and stereoscopy vision, the lack of objective parameter guidance, etc. Therefore, a new personalized amblyopia treatment solution is put forward...
In this paper, we propose a novel patient-specific electrocardiogram (ECG) classification algorithm based on the recurrent neural networks (RNN) and density based clustering technique. We use RNN to learn time correlation among ECG signal points and to classify ECG beats with different heart rates. Morphology information including the present beat and the T wave of former beat is fed into RNN to learn...
Spatial skills have an influence on surgeon's performance during robot-assisted surgery, and as such should be part of the training. Yet, there is a gap between the current training programs for surgical skills and the needed training of crucial spatial skills.
Spinal cord injury (SCI) is classified as neurological disorder that affects motor and sensory function below the injury level. Studies show that application of low-intensity electrical stimulation (LIES) to neural tissue increases neurochemical factors responsible for regeneration as nerve growth factor. Stem cell (SC) therapy for patients with SCI can result in the replacement of injured neurons...
Diagnosis and treatment of orbital wall fractures are based on both physical examination and computed tomography scan of the orbital cavity. The present paper reports on the secondary reconstruction of the skeletal orbit following untreated orbital floor fracture in a patient wearing an ocular prosthesis because of an orbital trauma. A computer-assisted approach, based on anatomical modelling and...
In this paper a technique for detecting the daily fatigue using the characteristics of local facial image is discussed. To reduce the influence of environment illumination and retain more details of features, the images are preprocessed by the method of color consistent area correction. The texture and color features are derived from the gray level co-occurrence matrix and two kinds of color space,...
In this report we have demonstrated a fluorescence resonant energy transfer (FRET)-fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM) combined approach to study the intracellular pathway of gold nanoparticles. The detected energy transfer between gold nanorods (GNRs) and green fluorescence protein (GFP) labeled Heia cell early endosomes and the in-depth lifetime distribution analysis on the transfer...
Motor skills are generally acquired by means of practice. This procedure comprised of acquiring particular task requirements by overruling intrinsic tendencies. The objectives of the present study were; to induce plasticity through bimanual finger tapping task; and to determine the influence of presence or absence of performance feedback on training. Behavioural data from 16 healthy subjects was recorded...
In this study, Magneto-Acousto Electrical Tomography with magnetic measurements technique is investigated using two dimensional (2D) simplified numerical breast model. This technique comprises of the electrical current induction and ultrasound in the static magnetic field. 2D numerical simplified breast geometry is modeled with an ultrasonic transducer (linear phased array (LPA)) placed on the top...
