Ultrasound II: Endoscopic Ultrasound and FibroScan

Ultrasound II: Endoscopic Ultrasound and FibroScan

Endoscopic Ultrasound (EUS) and FibroScan are valuable diagnostic tools in gastroenterology and hepatology, each with specific applications and techniques.
Endoscopic Ultrasound (EUS):

Ultrasonography

Ultrasonography

Ultrasonography is an imaging technique that uses high-frequency sound waves to visualize the body's internal structures. It is a non-invasive and safe procedure that does not involve the use of ionizing radiation, making it widely used in various medical fields. Ultrasonography is used to study heart function, blood flow in the neck or extremities, certain conditions such as gallbladder disease, and fetal growth and development.
During an ultrasonography procedure, a handheld device called a...

IntroductionUltrasonography, or renal ultrasound, is a noninvasive medical imaging technique that uses high-frequency sound waves to visualize the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and surrounding tissues.Indications for Urinary System UltrasonographyUrinary system ultrasonography is indicated in various clinical scenarios, such as:Kidney Stones (Urolithiasis): To detect and monitor the size and presence of kidney or urinary tract stones.Hydronephrosis: To assess the dilation of the renal pelvis and...

Ultrasound I: Abdominal Ultrasonography

Ultrasound I: Abdominal Ultrasonography

Introduction:
Abdominal ultrasonography, commonly known as abdominal ultrasound, is a vital, non-invasive medical imaging technique widely used in healthcare.
Procedure:
This diagnostic tool allows the clinician to visually inspect internal structures within the abdomen, including vital organs such as the liver, gallbladder, pancreas, kidneys, and spleen.
The abdominal ultrasound process begins with applying a special gel to the patient's skin over the abdomen. This gel enhances the...

Area of Science:

Medical imaging
Biomedical engineering
Ultrasound elastography

Background:

Real-time elastography is crucial for monitoring dynamic tissue changes.
Existing methods face challenges with decorrelation in ultrasound data.
Robust strain estimation is needed for accurate clinical assessment.

Purpose of the Study:

Introduce two novel real-time elastography techniques based on analytic minimization (AM).
Evaluate the performance of these AM methods in simulations, phantoms, and clinical settings.
Demonstrate their utility for applications such as ablation monitoring.

Main Methods:

Developed two real-time elastography techniques: 1D AM (axial strain, integer lateral displacement) and 2D AM (axial and lateral strains).
Utilized regularized cost functions incorporating RF data intensity similarity and displacement continuity.
Incorporated robust statistics for resistance to large decorrelations and Kalman filtering for strain field calculation.

Main Results:

Both 1D and 2D AM methods demonstrated high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR), and resolution in strain images.
Methods accurately measured strains up to 10% in real-time.
Successful in vivo patient trials for ablation monitoring were presented.

Conclusions:

The presented analytic minimization (AM) based real-time elastography techniques are robust and accurate.
These methods offer high performance suitable for clinical applications, including ablation monitoring.
Accessible implementation and data facilitate further research and development.
