Computed Tomography01:10

Computed Tomography

6.4K
Tomography refers to imaging by sections. Computed tomography (CT) is a non-invasive imaging technique that uses computers to analyze several cross-sectional X-rays to reveal minute details about structures in the body.
The technique was invented in the 1970s and is based on the principle that as X-rays pass through the body, they are absorbed or reflected at different levels. In the technique, a patient lies on a motorized platform while a computerized axial tomography (CAT) scanner rotates...

Ultrasonography

6.4K
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...

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:

  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Medical Imaging
  • Materials Science

Background:

  • Ultrasound Computed Tomography (USCT) is effective for soft tissue imaging.
  • Cortical bone imaging presents challenges due to high tissue impedance contrast, affecting ultrasonic wave propagation.
  • Existing linear inversion algorithms are limited by these wave propagation issues.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present theoretical, numerical, and experimental frameworks for USCT in cortical bone imaging.
  • To address the specific challenges of imaging adult and child bone tissue.
  • To explore solutions for overcoming limitations in current bone imaging techniques.

Main Methods:

  • Assessing non-linear effects in iterative approaches for local linearization.
  • Applying signal processing and compound algorithms for fluid-like cavity imaging within elastic cylinders.
  • Introducing purely numerical non-linear full-waveform inversion algorithms.

Main Results:

  • Non-linear effects and iterative approaches show promise for overcoming impedance contrast issues.
  • Specific algorithms can extend linear methods for certain bone imaging scenarios.
  • Numerical non-linear full-waveform inversion offers a potentially less experimentally intensive alternative.

Conclusions:

  • USCT frameworks, incorporating non-linear assessments, are crucial for effective cortical bone imaging.
  • Both linear and non-linear methods have distinct performances and limitations for bone imaging.
  • Further development of numerical non-linear algorithms could advance USCT applications in bone diagnostics.
