Freehand 3-D Sonographic Measurement of the Superficial Femoral Artery
نویسندگان
چکیده
Visualization of vessels for diagnostics and intervention are usually done under fluoroscopic X-ray view using intravenous contrast agents, which has potential risks. To avoid this problem an ultrasoundbased approach was investigated. The definition of reproducible geometric measures is important for image guided navigated implantations. Such measures can benefit from geometric body which approximate the vessels. We addressed the problem of fitting cylindric bodies to datasets by using a robust technique based on rejection strategies for irrelevant points and data sets.

متن کاملRare Vascular Anomalies in the Femoral Triangle During Varicose Vein Surgery
BACKGROUND We observed several cases of rare vascular anomalies within the femoral triangle during varicose vein operations. METHODS From among 2,093 patients who underwent stripping operations of the great saphenous vein between January 2002 and June 2016, 14 cases of rare vascular anomalies were enrolled in this study. RESULTS Twelve cases of femoral artery and vein transposition (0.57%),...
متن کاملObtaining a superficial femoral artery graft in adolescents and children with the deep femoral artery transposition.
A new technique to obtain a segment of the superficial femoral artery as an arterial conduit in young patients while an unobstructed peripheral blood flow is maintained by superficial femoral artery-deep femoral artery transposition is illustrated with two clinical examples. The explanted arterial autograft requires no replacement by another graft and provides a conduit of up to 10 cm in length...
