Strain Quantification In Ultrasound Sequences

چکیده
A novel methodology to quantify displacements and strain in musculoskeletal ultrasound sequences is presented. We extend the principles of 2D interframe displacements produced by our earlier work using hierarchical variable block size matching, to quantify displacement trajectories. We provide novel solutions for probe motion, quantification of objects moving in the 3D volume traversing the 2D plane, and improving the temporal coherence of displacements for longer image sequences than the frame pairs traditionally applied in ultrasound. We also present trajectory strain that yields a novel strain history for musculoskeletal tendon tissue samples.

Motion Trajectories For Ultrasound Displacement Quantification
We present a robust methodology to quantify displacements in musculoskeletal ultrasound sequences. This paper extends the principles of 2D interframe displacements produced by our earlier work using hierarchical variable block size matching, to quantify displacement trajectories. We provide novel solutions for probe motion, quantification of objects moving in the 3D volume traversing the 2D pla...
متن کاملMultiview Diffeomorphic Registration for Motion and Strain Estimation from 3D Ultrasound Sequences
This paper presents a new registration framework for estimating myocardial motion and strain from multiple views of 3D ultrasound sequences. The originality of our approach resides in the estimation of the transformation directly from the multiple views rather than from a single view or a reconstructed compounded sequence. This allows us to exploit all spatio-temporal information available in t...
متن کاملNon-invasive quantification of liver fat content by different Gradient Echo MRI sequences in patients with Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD)
Introduction: Non-invasive quantification of liver fat by Gradient echo (GRE) Technique is an interesting issue in quantitative MRI. Despite the numerous advantages of this technique, fat measurement maybe biased by confounding and effects. The aim of this study was to evaluate the GRE pulse sequences with different and weighting for liver fat quantification in patients with...
متن کاملA Snake Model for Anatomic M-mode Tracking in Echocardiography
The use of Tissue Doppler Imaging Imaging (TDI) has allowed to obtain velocity, strain and strain rate parameters in real time and is currently used routinely in the echocardiography lab. For analysis2D image sequences, profiles are marked on the image, and quantitative time profiles are obtained from them, a procedure known as anatomic M-mode. For correct quantification, the position of the re...
متن کاملMultiview diffeomorphic registration: Application to motion and strain estimation from 3D echocardiography
This paper presents a new registration framework for quantifying myocardial motion and strain from the combination of multiple 3D ultrasound (US) sequences. The originality of our approach lies in the estimation of the transformation directly from the input multiple views rather than from a single view or a reconstructed compounded sequence. This allows us to exploit all spatiotemporal informat...
