Regional quantitative analysis of airway morphological abnormalities is of great interest in lung disease investigation. Considering that pulmonary lobes are relatively independent functional unit, we develop and test a novel and efficient ...
Arterial Spin Labeling (ASL) fMRI: advantages, theoretical constrains, and experimental challenges in neurosciences [0.03%]
动脉自旋标记(fMRI)的优势、理论局限及实验挑战:神经科学方面的应用

Cerebral blood flow (CBF) is a well-established correlate of brain function and therefore an essential parameter for studying the brain at both normal and diseased states. Arterial spin labeling (ASL) is a noninvasive fMRI technique that us...
Regularization in retrieval-driven classification of clustered microcalcifications for breast cancer [0.03%]
基于检索的乳腺癌簇状微钙化分类中的正则化研究

The optic disc (OD) is an important anatomical feature in retinal images, and its detection is vital for developing automated screening programs. Currently, there is no algorithm designed to automatically detect the OD in fundus images capt...
Quantifying optical microangiography images obtained from a spectral domain optical coherence tomography system [0.03%]
基于光谱域光学相干层析成像的微血管成像及其定量分析研究

Roberto Reif et al.
The blood vessel morphology is known to correlate with several diseases, such as cancer, and is important for describing several tissue physiological processes, like angiogenesis. Therefore, a quantitative method for characterizing the angi...
Distribution, size, and shape of abdominal aortic calcified deposits and their relationship to mortality in postmenopausal women [0.03%]
绝经后妇女腹部主动脉钙化沉积的分布、大小及形态与其死亡率的关系
Melanie Ganz,Marleen de Bruijne,Erik B Dam et al.
Melanie Ganz et al.
Abdominal aortic calcifications (AACs) correlate strongly with coronary artery calcifications and can be predictors of cardiovascular mortality. We investigated whether size, shape, and distribution of AACs are related to mortality and how ...
