Liver Ultrasound Image Analysis using Enhancement Techniques
Liver cancer is the sixth most common malignant tumour and the third most common cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Chronic Liver damage affects up to 20% of our population. It has many causes viral infections (Hepatitis B and C), toxins, genetic, metabolic and autoimmune diseases. The rate of liver cancer in Australia has increased four-fold in the past 20 years. For detection and quali...
متن کاملThe effects of fatty deposits on the accuracy of the Fibroscan® liver transient elastography ultrasound system.
A new generation of ultrasound transient elastography (TE) systems have emerged which exploit the well-known correlation between the liver's pathological and mechanical properties through measurements of the Young's elastic modulus; however, little work has been carried out to examine the effect that fatty deposits may have on the TE measurement accuracy. An investigation was carried out on the...
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...
the use of appropriate madm model for ranking the vendors of mci equipments using fuzzy approach
abstract nowadays, the science of decision making has been paid to more attention due to the complexity of the problems of suppliers selection. as known, one of the efficient tools in economic and human resources development is the extension of communication networks in developing countries. so, the proper selection of suppliers of tc equipments is of concern very much. in this study, a ...
15 صفحه اولFibroscan (transient elastography) for the measurement of liver fibrosis.
NHA The Fibroscan device (Echosens) works by measuring shear wave velocity. In this technique, a 50-MHz wave is passed into the liver from a small transducer on the end of an ultrasound probe (Figure 1). The probe also has a transducer on the end that can measure the velocity of the shear wave (in meters per second) as this wave passes through the liver. The shear wave velocity can then be conv...
