Software support for novice transcranial ultrasound scanning

Requirements Engineering Education for Novice Software Architects

We take the position that novice architects without requirements education would benefit from such education for architecting purposes. While this knowledge might be intuitive among many, our position is based on an exploratory, empirical study involving a number of architecting teams, some with requirements education and others without, all architecting from the same set of requirements. The o...

Transcranial Doppler ultrasound.

Transcranial Doppler ultrasound allows measurements of blood flow velocity to be made from the basal intracerebral vessels. The major advantages of transcranial Doppler ultrasound are that it is non-invasive, relatively cheap, can be performed with portable machines, allows monitoring for prolonged periods, and has a high temporal resolution making it ideal for studying dynamic cerebrovascular ...

Three-dimensional ultrasound scanning.

The past two decades have witnessed developments of new imaging techniques that provide three-dimensional images about the interior of the human body in a manner never before available. Ultrasound (US) imaging is an important cost-effective technique used routinely in the management of a number of diseases. However, two-dimensional viewing of three-dimensional anatomy, using conventional two-di...

Ultrasound scanning in dermatology.

In recent years, ultrasound scanning has become an important diagnostic tool in dermatology. It is easy to use, completely safe, and provides important diagnostic information. There are 2 basic types of ultrasonography with dermatologic applications. The best established is 20-MHz scanning, which can be used to measure tumor thickness and/or skin thickness when treating inflammatory diseases su...
