Ultrasonography01:17

Ultrasonography

6.8K
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...

Echo

675
The human ear cannot distinguish between two sources of sound if they happen to reach within a specific time interval, typically 0.1 seconds apart. More than this, and they are perceived as separate sources.
Imagine the sound is reflected back to the ears. Assuming that the source is very close to the human, the difference between hearing the two sounds—the emitted sound and the reflected sound—may be more than the minimum time for perceiving distinct sounds. If this is the case,...

Electronic Distance Measuring Instruments

181
Electronic Distance Measuring Instruments (EDMs) are essential tools in modern surveying, offering precise distance measurements by emitting electromagnetic signals and calculating the time required for these signals to travel to a target and return. Two primary types of signals are used in EDMs — light waves and microwaves — each suited to specific environmental and distance requirements. Light-wave-based EDMs utilize either infrared or laser light, providing high accuracy over...

Area of Science:

  • Medical Imaging
  • Signal Processing
  • Biomedical Engineering

Background:

  • Elastography is crucial for medical diagnosis and treatment planning.
  • Current elastography methods struggle with noise, impacting robustness.
  • There is a need for noise-resilient elastography techniques.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose a novel eigenvalue decomposition (EVD) based method for robust elastography.
  • To enhance accuracy and computational speed, especially in low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) conditions.
  • To evaluate the proposed method against Generalized Cross-Correlation (GCC) and standard EVD.

Main Methods:

  • A new time-delay estimation method using EVD of the covariance matrix of received signals.
  • Incorporation of least-squares (LS) solution and lower-upper (LU) decomposition for computational efficiency.
  • Comparative analysis with GCC and EVD using simulations and experimental data.

Main Results:

  • The proposed EVD method significantly reduces jitter variance, outperforming GCC and EVD near the Cramer-Rau lower bound.
  • Satisfactory performance in variance and bias was observed at low SNRs for sub-sample delays.
  • Experimental results showed superior elastographic signal-to-noise ratio (SNRe) of 16.7 and contrast-to-noise ratio (CNRe) of 20.09.

Conclusions:

  • The proposed EVD-based method offers superior robustness against noise in elastography.
  • It provides improved accuracy and computational efficiency compared to GCC and EVD, especially under low SNR.
  • This technique holds promise for advancing various elastography applications in medical diagnosis.
