Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleOptimized Feature Selection for Kidney Ultrasound Image Classification Using Binary Coati Weighted Mean Vector AlgorithmFizhan Kausar, Ramamurthy B.The analysis of medical images presents many challenges, especially when making precise diagnoses. In pediatric Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD), early identification is critical because of its gradual progression to significant kidney failure. This study proposes a diagnostic framework for pediatric ultrasound image classification that incorporated machine learning and advanced feature selection methods. This approach is divided into four stages: Preprocessing, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 12 · 22 Jan 2026 · 1,563 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleUltrasound-Assisted Enzymatic Extraction of Polysaccharides from Waste Corn Bract: Process Optimization, Characterization, Antioxidant and Anti-Diabetic PotentialsYihui Liu, Yayi Li, Na Niu et al.Corn bract is the main agricultural waste of corn production and processing. Little information is focused on its value-added utilization. In the present study, the Ultrasound-Assisted Enzymatic Extraction (UAEE) was used for the first time to extract Corn Bract Polysaccharides (CBPs). The optimum conditions of UAEE for CBPs extraction were: Cellulase amount of 0.7%, enzymolysis for 58 min, and ultrasound … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 18, Issue 2 · 28 Jun 2022 · 6,126 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSynthesis of Graphene Oxide via Liquid Exfoliation Using Self-Custom-Made Tweeter Piezoelectric Ultrasound Generator and Assisted by Surfactant from Commercial DetergentAchmad Ainul Fikri, Aminah Nur Aisyah, Suhufa Alfarisa, Wipsar Sunu Brams DwandaruRapid progress in nanotechnology requires the production of novel nanomaterials. This study aims to synthesize Graphene Oxide (GO) via the Liquid Exfoliation (LE) method using a self-custom-made tweeter piezoelectric system as the ultrasound generator. Linear Alkylbenzena Sulfonate (LAS) surfactant contained in commercial detergent is used to assist the exfoliation process. This synthesis method is simple, inexpensive and may produce GO … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 11 · 3 Nov 2016 · 7,251 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleControl of Bubble Formation at the Optical Fiber Tip by Analyzing Ultrasound Acoustic WavesViacheslav Viacheslavovich Kazakov, Vladimir Isaakovich Yusupov, Viktor Nikolaevich Bagratashvili et al.The problems of controlling the processes of generation of acoustic waves and microbubbles at the optical fiber tip of moderate-power surgical lasers with wavelengths of 1.9 µm and 0.97 µm using active and passive acoustic methods are considered. It is shown that microbubbles of various sizes can be detected with an ultrasound method, in which the interaction area is recorded … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 2 Nov 2016 · 8,485 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAN EXPERIMENTAL STUDY ON THE HEAT ENHANCEMENT AND THE BIO-HEAT TRANSFER USING GOLD MACRO ROD AND ULTRASOUND: A POTENTIAL ALTERNATIVE TO KILL CANCER CELLSC. Austerlitz, I. Gkigkitzis, D. Campos, I. HaranasWe have previously proposed a method of treating solid tumors with a combination of gold macro-rods irradiated with ultrasound. Macro particle sized rods offer a greater circumferential treatment area over nanoparticle options. Experimental studies were conducted to investigate the heat enhancement and the bio-heat transfer to breast chicken using gold macro rod and ultrasound. An ultrasound, other than a focused … …Physics International, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 26 May 2014 · 7,520 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSPECKLE REDUCTION IN ULTRASOUND IMAGES USING NEIGHSHRINK AND BILATERAL FILTERINGR. Vanithamani, G. UmamaheswariSpeckle is a random multiplicative noise which obscures the perception and extraction of fine details in ultrasound images and speckle reduction is necessary to improve the visual quality of ultrasound images for better diagnosis. This study aims at introducing an algorithm by hybridizing bilateral filter with NeighShrink. The bilateral filter is applied before decomposition and after reconstruction of the image … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 19 Dec 2013 · 6,911 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleNovel Fuzzy Technique for Cancer Detection in Noisy Breast Ultrasound ImagesN. Alamelumangai, J. DeviShreeProblem statement: Detecting tumor areas in breast Ultrasound (US) images is a challenging task. The occurrence of benign areas in breast may result in false identification of malignant areas which may have serious outcome. Approach: The CAD system could act as a major function in the early detection of breast cancer and could decrease the death rate among women with … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 5 · 12 Mar 2012 · 6,959 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSegmentation of Ureteric and Bladder Calculi in Ultrasound ImagesS. SridharProblem statement: The framework for segmenting calculi in ureter and bladder using ultrasound images is proposed in this study. Calculi are due to abnormal collection of certain chemicals like oxalate, phosphate and uric acid. These calculi can be present in kidney, urethra or in urinary bladder. The extraction of calculi in medical images is a difficult task as no standard … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 5 · 27 Feb 2012 · 6,917 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleWarped Optical-Flow Inter-Frame Reconstruction for Ultrasound Image EnhancementBalza Achmad, Mohd Marzuki Mustafa, Aini HussainProblem statement: Optical flow inter-frame enhancement is one of the techniques to improve the quality of ultrasound images by reducing the speckle noise. The performance depends on accuracy of the optical flow inter-frame reconstruction which is a part of the technique. The speckle noise of an ultrasound image forms certain pattern, of which size of the speckle varies depends on … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 10 · 6 Aug 2011 · 7,212 accessesView PDFCite
