چکیده

We present an automated approach for airway tree reconstruction from CT images. Our approach performs an initial identification of tubular structures, followed by a reconstruction of the airway tree. During the reconstruction step, tubular objects that are part of the airway tree are identified and linked together based on prior knowledge about the structure of human airway trees. A major advantage of our approach is that it handles local disturbances robustly, as demonstrated

مقایسه مقاومت و کمپلیانس دینامیک راه هوایی بین لوله تراشه کافدار و لوله لارنژیال در بیهوشی داخل وریدی کامل(TIVA) Comparing Air Way Resistance and Dynamic Compliance of Tracheal Tube and Laryngeal Tube in TIVA

    Background & Aim: The aim of this study was to compare air way resistance and dynamic compliance of tracheal tube and laryngeal tube in TIVA(Total Intravenous Anesthesia). Nowadays, low airway resistance and dynamic compliance improvement during the mechanical ventilation whether in ICU or during general anesthesia, especially in patients with pulmonary diseases, is a favorable purpose to c...

Adaptive Branch Tracing and Image Sharpening for Airway Tree Extraction in 3-D Chest CT

The automated extraction of the airway tree from 3-D chest CT data can greatly reduce the workload of physicians during diagnosis (e.g. quantification of airway morphology) and treatment (computeraided bronchoscopy) of lung disease. This paper presents a method to automatically extract the airways driven by a sharpening filter, which enhances the branch edges in the input image based on the Lap...

Effect of Stabilizing Endotracheal Tube on Quality of Airway Management in Patients Hospitalized in ICU

Background: The unplanned departure of endotracheal tube is one of the main complications for endotracheal intubation. In addition to endotracheal extubation, its movement can also lead to damage to the oral cavity. Stabilizing endotracheal tube is the most important factor that can prevent unplanned departure of endotracheal tube as well as its movement. The current study was done with the aim...

Airway segmentation from 3D chest CT volumes based on volume of interest using gradient vector flow

Some lung diseases are related to bronchial airway structures and morphology. Although airway segmentation from chest CT volumes is an important task in the computer-aided diagnosis and surgery assistance systems for the chest, complete 3-D airway structure segmentation is a quite challenging task due to its complex tree-like structure. In this paper, we propose a new airway segmentation method...
