However, the large number\u0000 of virtual received signals may increase the computational cost of this method in ultrasound computed tomography (USCT) with ring array. Here, a method with less computation amount is proposed in USCT: the received signals are separated into different groups by their spatial lag; the groups\u0000 form a new smaller size receive aperture; StS-CF is finally applied to the new receive aperture. CIRS model 055A is tested to compare the performances of the proposed method and ZPF-DMAS. The results show that the computational complexity has been reduced by N*B*D((M2–3M)/2+1)\u0000 multiplications, supposing there are N ultrasound waves transmitted, B scan lines, D imaging points on each line and M-element receive aperture. StS-CF with a subarray size of L = 16 (far less than half the receive aperture) and P = 5 time samples\u0000 gives the best result in USCT, which is different from that in linear array B-mode imaging. The proposed method can enhance contrast ratio about 6.3 dB and 5.7 dB for the cystic mass and dense mass than ZPF-DMAS, respectively.","PeriodicalId":49032,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Medical Imaging and Health Informatics","volume":"91 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84176710","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, by quantitatively assess the performance analysis of Visual Therapy Method used for CP children.\u0000 By capturing the Eye Movement of 25 children with CP (aged 3–15 years) with relatively mild motor-impairment and also analyzed the performance of CP children periodically. The Eye image are captured through camera, this make the quick diagnosis and examination the periodical assessment\u0000 of CP kids. By Visual Therapy Function the CP children vision improvement develops as fast as or even faster. Proposed area of the research segments the eye image into Pupil, Iris, Eyelids and Eye corner detection using different image processing algorithms as well as measure the deviation\u0000 position of pupil for abnormal eyes taking the normal eye as the reference or threshold value. To further enhance these compare deviation Position of the normal and the abnormal eyes and to find the severity affection of abnormal eye and to measure the performance improvement achievement by\u0000 Visual Therapy Method for CP rehabilitation. The improvement analyzed for CP kids were maintained and recorded for the periodical month of Initial, 6th and 12th month. As a result, the Physicians can use this report to guide the CP kids in Rehabilitation Center and also this image processing\u0000 technique offers the greater flexibility for the prospective subjects of improvement in CP Rehabilitation by Visual Therapy Method. In this context, Image processing techniques are being recommended as a performance evaluation tool in children with CP and each of these processes are suggesting\u0000 method for developing a more systematic understanding of Oculomotor abnormalities.","PeriodicalId":49032,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Medical Imaging and Health Informatics","volume":"7 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81580506","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Poor quality signals can affect the results of analysis and disable the following clinical diagnosis. Thus, it is necessary to perform signal quality assessment before we interpreting the signal.\u0000 Objective: In this work, we describe a method combing support vector machine (SVM) and multi-feature fusion for assessing the signal quality of pulsatile waveforms, concentrating on the photoplethysmogram (PPG). Methods: PPG signals from 53 healthy volunteers were recorded. Each\u0000 had a 5 min length. Signal quality in each heart beat was manual annotated by clinical expert, and then the signal quality in 5 s episode was automatically calculated according to the results from each beat segments, resulting in a total of 13,294 5-s PPG segments. Then a SVM was trained to\u0000 classify clean/noisy PPG recordings by inputting a set of twelve signal quality features. Further experiments were carried out to verify the proposed SVM based signal quality classifier method. Results: An average accuracy of 87.90%, a sensitivity of 88.10% and a specificity of 87.66%\u0000 were found on the 10-fold cross validation. Conclusions: The signal quality of PPGs can be accurately classified by using the proposed method.","PeriodicalId":49032,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Medical Imaging and Health Informatics","volume":"8 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90963082","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
