Recognition of atherosclerotic plaques and their extended dimensioning with computerized tomography angiography imaging

Tomasz Markiewicz, Mirosław Dziekiewicz, Marek Maruszyński, Romana Bogusławska-Walecka, Wojciech Kozłowski (2014)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

In this paper the authors raise the issue of automatic discrimination of atherosclerotic plaques within an artery lumen based on numerical and statistical thresholding of Computerized Tomography Angiographic (CTA) images and their advanced dimensioning as a support for preoperative vessel assessment. For the study, a set of tomograms of the aorta, as well as the ilio-femoral and femoral arteries were examined. In each case a sequence of about 130-480 images of the artery cutoff planes were analyzed...

Reconstruction algorithms for an inverse medium problem

Ji-Chuan Liu (2018)

Applications of Mathematics

In this paper, we consider a two-dimensional inverse medium problem from noisy observation data. We propose effective reconstruction algorithms to detect the number, the location and the size of the piecewise constant medium within a body, and then we try to recover the unknown shape of inhomogeneous media. This problem is nonlinear and ill-posed, thus we should consider stable and elegant approaches in order to improve the corresponding approximation. We give several examples to show the viability...

Reconstruction and Quantification of Diffusion Tensor Imaging-Derived Cardiac Fibre and Sheet Structure in Ventricular Regions used in Studies of Excitation Propagation

A. P. Benson, S. H. Gilbert, P. Li, S. M. Newton, A. V. Holden (2008)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

Detailed descriptions of cardiac geometry and architecture are necessary for examining and understanding structural changes to the myocardium that are the result of pathologies, for interpreting the results of experimental studies of propagation, and for use as a three-dimensional orthotropically anisotropic model for the computational reconstruction of propagation during arrhythmias. Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) provides a means to reconstruct fibre and sheet orientation throughout the ventricles....

Rotation to physiological factors revised

Miroslav Kárný, Martin Šámal, Josef Böhm (1998)

Kybernetika

Reconstruction of underlying physiological structures from a sequence of images is a long-standing problem which has been solved by factor analysis with a success. This paper tries to return to roots of the problem, to exploit the available findings and to propose an improved paradigm.
