GPU-Based Elasticity Imaging Algorithms
Quasi-static elastography involves estimating the displacement field of the tissue undergoing slow compression. Since elastography is computationally expensive, many compromises have been made to perform it in real time. Parallelized algorithms and implementations for freehand palpation elastography are proposed in this paper to speed the computation. We present parallel implementations for Nor...
متن کاملModel-Based Reconstructive Elasticity Imaging Using Ultrasound
Elasticity imaging is a reconstructive imaging technique where tissue motion in response to mechanical excitation is measured using modern imaging systems, and the estimated displacements are then used to reconstruct the spatial distribution of Young's modulus. Here we present an ultrasound elasticity imaging method that utilizes the model-based technique for Young's modulus reconstruction. Bas...

Thus, some thesis and dissertation copies are in typewriter face, while others may be from any type of computer printer. The quality of this reproduction is dependent upon the quality of the copy submitted. Broken or indistinct print, colored or poor quality illustrati...
متن کاملCombined ultrasound, optoacoustic and elasticity imaging
Combination of three complementary imaging technologies ultrasound imaging, elastography, and optoacoustic imaging is suggested for detection and diagnostics of tissue pathology including cancer. The fusion of these ultrasound-based techniques results in a novel imaging system capable of simultaneous imaging of the anatomy (ultrasound imaging), cancer-induced angiogenesis (optoacoustic imaging)...
متن کاملA Data Weighting Scheme for Quasistatic Ultrasound Elasticity Imaging
The quality of quasistatic ultrasound strain images depends strongly on post-processing procedures (normalization, spatial and temporal filtering). Such procedures generally benefit from weighting the data to give more credence to high quality strain estimates. In this paper, we evaluate several different quality metrics on each post-processing procedure. The results suggest that no single weig...
