A new Application Specific Image Processor for the enhancement of the dynamic range of medical images is presented, capable to process images at different resolutions up to 4K. An algorithm has been derived, adapted and tailored for the specific hardware design, in order to adapt the complexity of the processor to required performances or to constraints of different field programmable platforms. The...
The Gabor filter has gained an important agreement in multimedia processing and visual search applications for its good spatial frequency and position selectivity, notwithstanding its heavy computational load. For these reasons, Gabor filters find useful applications in the processing of medical images, aiming to enhance the original image and to overcome issues related to noise and artifacts. With...
This paper describes the architecture of a wearable, wireless embedded system for the Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy (DPN) assessment in ordinary dynamic movements, such as a fluid gait. In this context, the EMG analysis can provide information about the nerves status by estimating the linked Muscle Fiber Conduction Velocity (MFCV). The system operates with synchronized and digitized data samples...
The need for diagnostic tools for the characterization of progressive movement disorders — as the Parkinson Disease (PD) — aiming to early detect and monitor the pathology is getting more and more impelling. The parallel request of wearable and wireless solutions, for the real-time monitoring in a non-controlled environment, has led to the implementation of a Quantitative Gait Analysis platform for...
