Improving Displacement Signal-to-Noise Ratio for Low-Signal Radiation Force Elasticity Imaging Using Bayesian Techniques.
Radiation force-based elasticity imaging is currently being investigated as a possible diagnostic modality for a number of clinical tasks, including liver fibrosis staging and the characterization of cardiovascular tissue. In this study, we evaluate the relationship between peak displacement magnitude and image quality and propose using a Bayesian estimator to overcome the challenge of obtainin...
متن کاملassessment of the efficiency of s.p.g.c refineries using network dea
data envelopment analysis (dea) is a powerful tool for measuring relative efficiency of organizational units referred to as decision making units (dmus). in most cases dmus have network structures with internal linking activities. traditional dea models, however, consider dmus as black boxes with no regard to their linking activities and therefore do not provide decision makers with the reasons...
Quantitative assessment of the masseter muscle's elasticity using Acoustic Radiation Force Impulse.
AIMS The study proposes Acoustic Radiation Force Impulse (ARFI) assessment of the masseter muscle elasticity in the healthy population and in patients who have undergone head and neck radiation therapy. PATIENTS AND METHODS Twenty-five healthy controls constituted group A, and 13 patients who had underwent radiotherapy (35Gy minimum) formed group B. ARFI was performed bilaterally in the perip...
متن کاملAcoustic radiation force-based elasticity imaging methods.
Conventional diagnostic ultrasound images portray differences in the acoustic properties of soft tissues, whereas ultrasound-based elasticity images portray differences in the elastic properties of soft tissues (i.e. stiffness, viscosity). The benefit of elasticity imaging lies in the fact that many soft tissues can share similar ultrasonic echogenicities, but may have different mechanical prop...

در سال های اخیر، تقاضای استفاده از تئوری خطی ویسکوالاستیسیته بیشتر شده است. با افزایش استفاده از کامپوزیت های پیشرفته در صنایع هوایی و همچنین استفاده روزافزون از مواد پلیمری، اهمیت روش های دقیق طراحی و تحلیل چنین ساختارهایی بیشتر شده است. این مواد جدید از خودشان رفتارهای مکانیکی ارائه می دهند که با تئوری های الاستیسیته و ویسکوزیته، نمی توان آن ها را توصیف کرد. این مواد، خواص ویسکوالاستیک دارند....
