The segmentation of media-adventitia and lumen-intima boundaries of the Carotid Artery forms an essential part in assessing plaque morphology in Ultrasound Imaging. Manual methods are tedious and prone to variability and thus, developing automated segmentation algorithms is preferable. In this paper, we propose to use deep convolutional networks for automated segmentation of the media-adventitia boundary...
Ultrasound image segmentation is a field which has garnered much interest over the years. This is partially due to the complexity of the problem, arising from the lack of contrast between different tissue types which is quite typical of ultrasound images. Recently, segmentation techniques which treat RF signal data have also become popular, particularly with the increasing availability of such data...
The aim of this study was to compare ankle brachial indices (APBI) with pedal waveforms utilizing the continuous wave Doppler in a population with diabetes mellitus.A prospective study design was employed to investigate the ABPI in a cohort of 49 people with type 2 diabetes mellitus. ABPI assessment was completed using a portable handheld Doppler and ankle pressures of <0.9 were taken as suggestive...
Capsule Endoscopy is a technique designed to wirelessly image the small intestine within the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. Its main drawback is the vast amount of images it generates per patient, necessitating long screening sessions by the clinician. Previous studies have proposed to partially facilitate this process by automatically segmenting the GI tract into its constituent organs, thus identifying...
Fast-Scan Cyclic Voltammetry (FSCV) is frequently used to monitor the concentrations of neurotransmitters in real-time. However, few studies have examined the issue of monitoring the concentration of multiple neurotransmitters at the same time, despite their coexistence at brain synapses. This stems from the fact that some neurotransmitters have relatively similar electrochemical profiles. In this...
