Motion of the carotid artery wall can be quantitatively estimated from sequences of B-mode
ultrasound images. Ultrasound scanner settings, including dynamic range and persistence …

The motion of the carotid artery wall can quantitatively be estimated from sequences of B-
mode ultrasound images. In this paper, the effects of dynamic range (DR) and persistence …

Motion of the carotid artery wall is important for the quantification of arterial elasticity and
contractility and can be estimated with a number of techniques. In this paper, a framework for …

The motion of the carotid atheromatous plaque relative to the adjacent wall may be related
to the risk of cerebral events. A quantitative method for motion estimation was applied to …

Motion of the carotid atheromatous plaque may be responsible for plaque rupture and
cerebrovascular symptoms. B-mode ultrasound allows non-invasive recording of arterial …

The motion of the carotid artery wall has been previously estimated from ultrasound image
sequences using block matching. In this paper, this conventional method was extended …

Motion of the carotid artery wall from sequences of ultrasound images has been promising in
providing useful indices characterizing elasticity of healthy and diseased arterial wall. The …

We aim at investigating arterial diseases at early stage, by assessing the longitudinal (ie in
the same direction as the blood flow) motion of the intima-media complex. This recently …

Motion of the arterial wall and atheromatous plaque, especially in the longitudinal direction,
has recently gained attention as a determinant of carotid atherosclerosis. Vessel wall …

Block matching (BM) has been previously used to estimate motion of the carotid artery from
B-mode ultrasound image sequences. In this paper, Kalman filtering (KF) was incorporated …
