901
Introduction: MRI and CT scans are crucial advancements in medical imaging techniques, playing a vital role in diagnosing conditions related to the gastrointestinal (GI) system. Each scan serves distinct purposes, targets specific areas, and requires unique nursing duties.
Description of the Procedures
Computed Tomography (CT) scan:
Computed Tomography (CT) scans use X-ray technology to generate detailed images of bones, organs, and tissues. During the scan, the patient lies on a moving table...

Imaging Studies for Cardiovascular System V: CT

374
Cardiac computed tomography (CT) scanning is an advanced cardiac imaging technique that utilizes CT technology, with or without intravenous (IV) contrast, to produce accurate cross-sectional virtual slices of specific areas of the heart, coronary circulation, and major blood vessels such as the aorta, pulmonary veins, and arteries. The computer processes these slices to generate three-dimensional images. Multidetector CT (MDCT) is a rapid form of CT scanning that captures multiple slices...

Brick Durability, Strength, and Appearance01:15

Brick Durability, Strength, and Appearance

679
Brick durability, strength, and appearance are crucial factors in construction, influencing the choice of bricks for specific applications. The process of freeze-thaw, for instance, significantly affects brick durability. This phenomenon occurs when water absorbed by a brick expands as it freezes, potentially causing damage when it melts and refreezes. Bricks are graded for durability: SW-grade bricks are the most durable, offering high strength and low water absorption, followed by MW-grade...

Higher Mental Functions of Brain: Learning and Memory

2.1K
Memory is one of the most vital higher mental functions of the brain. Memory is closely related to learning because it enables us to retain information and experiences from our past to use them in our present life. It also helps us to remember facts, events, and skills, such as riding a bike or swimming. There are two types of memory — declarative memory, which involves memorizing facts or events, and procedural memory, which enables us to remember how to do something like writing or...

Imaging Studies for Cardiovascular System VI: Calcium -Scoring CT

496
Calcium-Scoring CT ScanA calcium-scoring CT scan, also known as coronary artery calcium (CAC) scan, detects calcium deposits in the coronary arteries. This test assesses the risk of coronary artery disease (CAD), which can lead to cardiovascular events such as angina, heart failure, and sudden cardiac arrest.A calcium-scoring CT scan is generally recommended for individuals at intermediate risk of CAD without symptoms. It includes:Men aged 40-75 and women aged 50-75: Especially those with a...

Impression Management Techniques I: Managing Appearances

Appearance is a multidimensional aspect of self-presentation that encompasses observable attributes such as clothing, grooming, speech, and nonverbal behavior. These elements are often strategically managed to align with socially constructed expectations in different settings. For instance, individuals tailor their appearance during job interviews, social gatherings, or athletic events to meet the perceived norms of those environments.Contextual Adaptation and Social SignalsThe research...

    • Neurosurgery
    • Medical Imaging
    • Computer Vision

    Background:

    • Accurate segmentation of brain surfaces in post-surgical computed tomography (CT) images is crucial for image-guided neurosurgery in epilepsy patients.
    • Registration of post-implantation CT to pre-implantation MRI is essential for guiding surgical resection of epileptic tissue.
    • Challenges in CT segmentation include skull defects and electrode artifacts, complicating cortical surface extraction.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To present a dictionary learning-based method for segmenting the brain surface in post-surgical CT images of epilepsy patients with implanted electrodes.
    • To develop a model capturing locally oriented appearance of both normal tissue and artifacts at the brain surface boundary.
    • To evaluate the method's accuracy in brain surface extraction and electrode localization compared to existing approaches.

    Main Methods:

    • A dictionary learning approach was employed to model the locally oriented appearance of the brain surface in post-surgical CT scans.
    • The method was trained and tested using a database of clinical epilepsy imaging data.
    • Performance was compared against standard non-oriented appearance modeling, atlas-based segmentation, and a U-Net-based deep convolutional neural network.

    Main Results:

    • The proposed dictionary learning method with locally oriented appearance significantly improved brain surface extraction accuracy.
    • The method demonstrated superior performance in localizing electrodes on the post-operative brain surface compared to non-oriented modeling.
    • Comparative analysis showed the dictionary learning approach outperformed standard atlas-based and U-Net segmentation methods in this specific application.

    Conclusions:

    • Dictionary learning utilizing locally oriented appearance is an effective strategy for segmenting brain surfaces in challenging post-surgical CT images of epilepsy patients.
    • This approach enhances the accuracy of brain surface extraction and electrode localization, critical for successful image-guided neurosurgery.
    • The findings suggest potential for improved surgical planning and execution in epilepsy treatment through advanced image segmentation techniques.
