PURPOSE To improve the reliability of corneal topographic data through the development of a method to estimate the magnitude of misalignment between successive corneal videokeratography (VK) maps and eliminate the effect of misalignment on the repeatability of topography data. METHODS Anterior and posterior topography maps were recorded twice for 124 healthy eyes of 124 participants using a P...
Repeatability is an important concept in evolutionary analyses because it provides information regarding the benefit of repeated measurements and, in most cases, a putative upper limit to heritability estimates. Repeatability (R) of different aspects of energy metabolism and behavior has been demonstrated in a variety of organisms over short and long time intervals. Recent research suggests tha...
PURPOSE To evaluate maximum likelihood (ML) blind deconvolution as a technique for improving the repeatability of topographic height measurements obtained from scanning laser tomography (Heidelberg Retinal Tomograph [HRT]; Heidelberg Engineering, Heidelberg, Germany). METHODS ML blind deconvolution is an image-processing technique that estimates the original scene from a degraded image. This ...
Sputum induced by inhalation of nebulized hypertonic saline is increasingly used to monitor airways inflammation in asthma. The aim of this study was to assess the repeatability of measuring cellular and soluble markers of inflammation in whole sputum samples as obtained by sputum induction in patients both with mild and moderate-to-severe asthma. Twelve patients with mild, atopic asthma withou...
BACKGROUND Circulating blood volume (BV) is an important, but often unconsidered, variable in newborn infants undergoing intensive care. The data on validation and repeatability of BV measurement are limited. AIM To validate and test the repeatability of measuring BV in newborn infants using indocyanine green (ICG) and pulse dye densitometry (PDD). METHODS Validation--Paired measurements of...
INTRODUCTION Arterial stiffness is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular morbidity and can be assessed by applanation tonometry by measuring pulse wave velocity (PWV) and augmentation index (AIX) by pressure pulse wave analysis (PWA). As an inexpensive and operator independent alternative, photoelectric plethysmography (PPG) has been introduced with analysis of the digital volume pulse ...
Corresponding Author: Dr. Gabriele Corciolani, Via Derna 4, 58100 Grosseto (Italy) E-mail: [email protected]; Tel/Fax: +39056425384 Abstract Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate the repeatability of readings with a clinical spectrophotometer in comparison with a laboratory one. Materials and Methods: A stand alone clinical spectrophotometer (Easyshade, Vita) and a labor...
PURPOSE Multi-slice ungated double inversion recovery has been proposed as an alternative time-efficient and effective sequence for black-blood carotid imaging. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the comparative repeatability of this multi-contrast sequence with respect to a single slice double inversion recovery prepared gated sequence. MATERIALS AND METHODS Ten healthy volunteers and ...
This paper compares several stereo image interest point detectors with respect to their repeatability and information content through experimental analysis. The Harris-Laplace detector gives better results than other detectors in areas of good texture; however, in areas of poor texture, the HarrisLaplace detector may be not the best choice. A featurerelated filtering strategy is designed for th...
Objective- The aim of this study was to test the repeatability, the variability, and to establish the reference values of PW measurements in healthy Markhoz goats.Design- Retrospective study.Animals- 20 female Markhoz goats.Procedure- Using a standardized PW Doppler echocardiographic protocol, 20healthy adult unsedated female Markhoz goats were investigated three times at one-...
