Tracking Mammographic Structures Over Time
نویسندگان
چکیده
A method to correspond linear structures in mammographic images is presented. Our approach is based on automatically establishing correspondence between linear structures which appear in images using robust features such as orientation, width and curvature extracted from those structures. The resulting correspondence is used to track linear structures and regions in mammographic images taken at different times.

Tracking performance of incremental LMS algorithm over adaptive distributed sensor networks
in this paper we focus on the tracking performance of incremental adaptive LMS algorithm in an adaptive network. For this reason we consider the unknown weight vector to be a time varying sequence. First we analyze the performance of network in tracking a time varying weight vector and then we explain the estimation of Rayleigh fading channel through a random walk model. Closed form relations a...
متن کاملModeling human eye behavior during mammographic scanning: preliminary results
Understanding how people acquire information from pictures—radiographs, maps, charts, photographs, drawings, and other static images—can be an important component in understanding, aiding, and eventually automating a wide range of diagnostic tasks. In the experiment reported here, we investigate the use of an inexpensive and unobtrusive eye-tracking system to explore relationships between visua...
متن کاملImproving the Tracking Error Signal Extraction in IR Seeker with Stationary Wagon Wheel Reticle over all Field of View
The accuracy of target position detection in IR seeker depends on the accuracy of tracking error signal (TES) extraction from seeker Field of View (FOV). The type of reticle inside the seeker determines the output modulation signal that carries the TES. In this paper, the stationary wagon wheel reticle is used, which makes the type of the output signal as FM modulation in the linear region of F...
متن کاملChanges in mammographic density over time in breast cancer cases and women at high risk for breast cancer
High mammographic breast density is one of the strongest intermediate markers of breast cancer risk, and decreases in density over time have been associated with decreases in breast cancer risk. Using repeated measures of mammographic density in a cohort of high-risk women, the Women at Risk (WAR) cohort at Columbia University Medical Center (N = 2670), we examined whether changes in prediagnos...
متن کاملA quantitative investigation on lung tumor site on its motion tracking in radiotherapy with external surrogates
Introduction: In external beam radiotherapy each effort is done to deliver 3D dose distribution onto the tumor volume uniformly, while minimizing the dose to healthy organs at the same time. Radiation treatment of tumors located at thorax region such as lung and liver has a challenging issue during target localization since these tumors move mainly due to respiration. There are...
