Transcutaneous Localization of Arterial Bleeding by Two-Dimensional Ultrasonic Imaging of Tissue Vibrations
نویسندگان
چکیده
Arterial bleeding into a free space is known to cause local vibrations in tissue. To study the effectiveness of utilizing these tissue vibrations in localizing the site of arterial bleeding, we have developed an algorithm for ultrasonically imaging these tissue vibrations. Simulation results indicate that our algorithm can correctly detect vibrations in the presence of pulsatile wall motion, blood flow and noise with the sensitivity of 96% and specificity of 99%. Preliminary results from an animal study indicate that our algorithm can detect vibrations from bleeding arteries as well as from organs such as liver and spleen.

متن کاملUltrasonic interrogation of tissue vibrations in arterial and organ injuries: preliminary in vivo results.
Soft tissues surrounding vascular injuries are known to vibrate at audible and palpable frequencies, producing bruits and thrills. We report the results of a feasibility study where Doppler ultrasound (US) was used to quantitatively estimate the tissue vibrations after induced trauma in an animal model. A software-programmable US system was used to acquire quadrature-demodulated ensembles of re...

In this paper, the general governing equations of three-dimensional vibrations of an Euler-Bernoulli Beam under influences of system dynamics are derived by the Hamiltonian method. Then two fundamental cases of a cantilever beam and a rotating beam are considered. The conventional methods for vibration suppression debit to expenses and make new problems such as control spillover because they ar...
