OBJECTIVES Pathological nipple discharge (PND) may indicate malignant breast lesions. As the role of shear wave elastography (SWE) in predicting these malignant lesions has not yet been evaluated, we aim to evaluate the diagnostic value of SWE for this condition. DESIGN Prospective diagnostic accuracy study comparing a combination of qualitative and quantitative measurements of SWE (index tes...

Active research is underway on virtual touch screens that complement the physical limitations of conventional touch screens. This paper discusses a virtual touch screen that uses a multi-layer perceptron to recognize and control three-dimensional (3D) depth information from a time of flight (TOF) camera. This system extracts an object’s area from the image input and compares it with the traject...

Virtual reality is one of the intuitive man-machine interfaces, which uses human five senses. Virtual reality has many possibilities to enable medical doctor to understand diagnostic information intuitively and to do surgical operation more easily. In this paper, first of all, “What is Virtual Reality?” is introduced. After that, VR is applied to medical ultrasonic diagnosis to settle two probl...

The main aim of this system is to implementing Virtual Touch Buttons and sliders with camera using a laptop /pc. We propose a large interactive display with Virtual touch buttons on a pale-colored flat wall. Our easyto-install system consists of a front projector and a single commodity camera. A button touch is detected based on the area of the shadow cast by the user’s hand. Background subtrac...
