Integrated optical coherence tomography, ultrasound and photoacoustic imaging for ovarian tissue characterization
Ovarian cancer has the lowest survival rate of the gynecologic cancers because it is predominantly diagnosed in Stages III or IV due to the lack of reliable symptoms, as well as the lack of efficacious screening techniques. Detection before the malignancy spreads or at the early stage would greatly improve the survival and benefit patient health. In this report, we present an integrated optical...
متن کاملUltrasound Tissue Characterization of Vulnerable Atherosclerotic Plaque
A thrombotic occlusion of the vessel fed by ruptured coronary atherosclerotic plaque may result in unstable angina, myocardial infarction or death, whereas embolization from a plaque in carotid arteries may result in transient ischemic attack or stroke. The atherosclerotic plaque prone to such clinical events is termed high-risk or vulnerable plaque, and its identification in humans before it b...
متن کاملRole of ultrasound in characterization of ovarian masses.
BACKGROUND Ovarian cancer is the second most common malignancy in Pakistani women, accounting for 4% of all cancers in the female population. The aim of this study was to determine sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values and 95% confidence intervals for ultrasound in characterization of ovarian masses in patients presenting at public and private tertiary care hospitals...
متن کاملReflectance spectroscopy for in vivo characterization of ovarian tissue.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE To explore whether reflectance spectroscopy can differentiate normal ovary, benign neoplasms, and ovarian cancer. STUDY DESIGN/MATERIALS AND METHODS Reflectance spectra (390-600 nm) were measured at three source-detector separations (SDS) in vivo at 64 sites in 16 patients undergoing oophorectomy. Parameters with largest statistical differences were identified. Based ...
متن کاملFluorescence spectroscopy for in vivo characterization of ovarian tissue.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to explore whether fluorescence spectroscopy signatures differed between normal variations within the ovary, benign neoplasms, and ovarian cancer. STUDY DESIGN/MATERIALS AND METHODS Ovarian tissue fluorescence emission spectra were collected sequentially at 18 excitation wavelengths ranging from 330 to 500 nm from 11 patients undergoing...
