An enhanced ultrasound kidney image classification for health care
نویسندگان
چکیده
An enhanced medical decision support system for classification of Ultrasound Kidney images is developed for health care and presented in this paper. The image enhancement was done by removing the speckle, salt and pepper noises using fuzzy c means filtering and the Gray Level Coocurrence Matrix was obtained for feature extraction. Gabor wavelets and Histogram equalization were used for the selection of texture features. The classification is done using SVM, ANN, K-NN and Hybrid classifiers and the accuracy of classification was found to be 99.6% for the SVMANN hybrid classifier. The developed system is expected to provide support for the medical practitioners for decision making to provide an enhanced health care.

Prediction of Kidney Damage in Ultrasound Compared with Dimercaptosuccinic Acid in Children with Pyelonephritis and Vesicoureteral Reflux
Background and purpose: Ultrasound is easily available, cheap, non-invasive and radiation-free that could be considered as an alternative to Dimercaptosuccinic Acid (DMSA) in evaluation of kidney damage. The aim of this study was to determine the prediction of kidney damage in ultrasound compared with DMSA (standard method) in children with pyelonephritis and vesicoureteral reflux. Materials a...

Ultrasound imaging is one of the common methods in medical diagnostic systems. There are many artifacts in a two dimentional image. Three dimentional imaging can be used for better interpretation and perception of an image. Since 1969 many attemps have been made in this regards, and research continues all over the world. The main goal in...

Purpose: Ultrasound scanning has been widely used for preliminary diagnosis as it is non-invasive and has good scope for the doctors to analyze many diseases. Due to lack of trained radiologists in remote areas, tele-radiology is used to diagnose the scanned ultrasound data. Availability of online radiographers and having communication facility for the portable ultrasound are issues in tele-rad...
متن کاملJoint Co-segmentation and Registration of 3D Ultrasound Images
Contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) allows a visualization of the vascularization and complements the anatomical information provided by conventional ultrasound (US). However, these images are inherently subject to noise and shadows, which hinders standard segmentation algorithms. In this paper, we propose to use simultaneously the different information coming from 3D US and CEUS images to addr...
