The segmentation of ultrasound images is challenging due to the difficulty of appropriate modeling of their appearance variations including speckle as well as signal dropout. We ...
Abstract. The simulation of ultrasound wave propagation is of high interest in fields as ultrasound system development and therapeutic ultrasound. From a computational point of vi...
This paper addresses object tracking in ultrasound images using a robust multiple model tracker. The proposed tracker has the following features: 1) it uses multiple dynamic models...
Abstract. Reflection of sound waves, due to acoustic impedance mismatch at the interface of two media, is the principal physical property which allows visualization with ultrasound...
We present a volume modelling approach based on sequences of two-dimensional ultrasound images. Though generally applicable to arbitrary freehand ultrasound, our method is designe...

: The paper presents a new concept of computer user interface dedicated for the disabled people. The concept is based on the recognition of ultrasound image of the selected region ...
Ultrasound images are very noisy. Along with system noise, a significant noise source is the speckle phenomenon, caused by interference in the viewed object. Most past approaches f...
A computer-aided diagnostic (CAD) method of calculating lumen and wall thickness of carotid vessels is presented. The CAD is able to measure the geometry of the lumen and plaque s...

In this paper, we propose a novel segmenting system for ultrasound images. This solution is separated into three steps. First, we filter noise by using the “peakand-valley” wi...
