on the relationship between using discourse markers and the quality of expository and argumentative academic writing of iranian english majors

the aim of the present study was to investigate the frequency and the type of discourse markers used in the argumentative and expository writings of iranian efl learners and the differences between these text features in the two essay genres. the study also aimed at examining the influence of the use of discourse markers on the participants’ writing quality. to this end the discourse markers us...

3D/4D ultrasound registration of bone

This paper presents a method to reduce the invasiveness of Computer Assisted Orthopaedic Surgery (CAOS) using ultrasound. In this goal, we need to develop a method for 3D/4D ultrasound registration. The premilinary results of this study suggest that the development of a robust and “realtime” 3D/4D ultrasound registration is feasible.

2D and 3D Elasticity Imaging Using Freehand Ultrasound

Medical imaging is vital to modern clinical practice, enabling clinicians to examine tissues inside the human body non-invasively. Its value depends on accuracy, resolution, and the imaged property (e.g., density). Various new scanning techniques are aimed at producing elasticity images related to mechanical properties (e.g., stiffness) to which conventional forms of ultrasound, X-ray and magne...

Portable 3D/4D Ultrasound Diagnostic Imaging System

The rapid diagnosis of invisible internal injury in an austere and hostile front-line operational environment remains a challenge for (Canadian Forces) medical and search and rescue personnel. The availability of a portable 4D-ultrasound imaging system with a single probe, providing high image resolution and deep penetration, is considered by (civilian) medical practitioners and their military ...
