<para> The analysis of the carotid artery wall is crucial for the diagnosis of serious cardiovascular pathologies or for the assessment of a subject's cardiovascular risk. Several algorithms have been proposed for the segmentation of ultrasound carotid artery images, but almost all require a certain degree of user interaction. We recently developed a completely user-independent algorithm for...
The analysis of the carotid artery wall is crucial for the diagnosis of serious cardiovascular pathologies or for the assessment of a subject’s cardiovascular risk. Several algorithms have been proposed for the segmentation of ultrasound carotid artery images, but almost all require a certain degree of user interaction. We recently developed a completely user – independent algorithm...
Non-invasive plaque characterization of the carotid wall is crucial for the early assessment of pathology, as well as for the monitoring of the progression of a degenerative phenomenon. Specifically, in clinical practice the carotid wall status is assessed by means of B-Mode ultrasound scans. We recently implemented an algorithm for the segmentation of the common tract of the carotid wall using ultrasound...
Dynamic infrared imaging has been proposed in literature as an interesting adjunctive technique to mammography in breast cancer diagnosis. For a correct analysis of the infrared image sequences, however, a preprocessing registration step may be fundamental. In this paper, we provide a first quantitative evaluation of the performances of registration on dynamic infrared images for this specific application...
