Imaging Studies II: Ultrasonography

39
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...

Imaging Biological Samples with Optical Microscopy

5.0K
Optical microscopy uses optic principles to provide detailed images of samples. Antonie van Leeuwenhoek designed the first compound optical microscope in the 17th century to visualize blood cells, bacteria, and yeast cells. In 1830, Joseph Jackson Lister created an essentially modern light microscope. The 20th century saw the development of microscopes with enhanced magnification and resolution.
In optical microscopy, the specimen to be viewed is placed on a glass slide and clipped on the stage...

Ultrasonography01:17

Ultrasonography

4.7K
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...

Buoyancy and Stability for Submerged and Floating Bodies01:11

Buoyancy and Stability for Submerged and Floating Bodies

1.9K
In fluid mechanics, buoyancy and stability are key concepts for understanding the behavior of submerged and floating bodies. When a stationary body is fully or partially submerged in a fluid, the fluid exerts a force on the body known as the buoyant force. This force acts vertically upward through a point called the center of buoyancy, which is the center of the displaced fluid volume. According to Archimedes' principle, the magnitude of the buoyant force is equal to the weight of the fluid...

Area of Science:

  • Marine robotics and imaging technology.
  • Computer vision and sensor fusion.

Background:

  • Unmanned underwater operations rely on optical and sonar sensors.
  • Underwater images suffer from noise and distortion, hindering intuitive understanding.
  • Existing imaging methods lack integrated color and distance information.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop an optical and sonar image fusion system for unmanned underwater vehicles.
  • To integrate color information from optical images and distance information from sonar images.
  • To enhance the visualization and understanding of underwater environments.

Main Methods:

  • Developed a system for fusing optical and sonar images using calibrated transformation matrices.
  • Applied median filter and gamma correction to improve contrast and reduce noise.
  • Utilized underwater image quality measure (UIQM) and underwater color image quality evaluation (UCIQE) for performance evaluation.

Main Results:

  • Image fusion significantly improved image quality, increasing mean UIQM by 94% and UCIQE by 27%.
  • Contrast-to-noise ratio improved sixfold after image pre-processing.
  • Achieved good spatial agreement with an average Intersection over Union (IoU) of 75% between optical and sonar pixels.

Conclusions:

  • The proposed optical-sonar fusion system effectively integrates color and distance data.
  • Enhanced image quality and spatial agreement improve underwater situation awareness for unmanned operations.
  • This technology aids in better visualization for complex underwater tasks.
