Conventional medical imaging technologies, including ultrasound, have continued to
improve over the years. For example, in oncology, medical imaging is characterized by high …

This paper reviews the state of the art in computer-aided diagnosis of prostate cancer and
focuses, in particular, on ultrasound-based techniques for detection of cancer in prostate …

Ultrasound (US) spectral analysis methods are used to analyze the radiofrequency (RF)
data collected from cell pellets exposed to chemotherapeutics that induce apoptosis and …

This paper describes the image formation in medical ultrasound for the case of scattering
media. The texture statistics are dominated by speckle formation. The effects of spatial, fixed …

The purpose of this study was to apply a novel method of multiscale echo texture analysis for
distinguishing benign (hemangiomas) from malignant (hepatocellular carcinomas (HCCs) …

Spectrum analysis procedures have been developed to improve upon the diagnostic
capabilities afforded by conventional ultrasonic images. These procedures analyze the …

H-scan ultrasound (US) imaging (where the 'H'stands for Hermite) is a novel non-invasive,
low cost and real-time technology. Like traditional US, H-scan US suffers from frequency …

Purpose The purpose of this study was to compare the sensitivity of MicroFlow Imaging (MFI)
with that of color and power Doppler imaging (CDI and PDI, respectively) in detecting the …

The analysis of the ultrasonic frequency-dependent backscatter coefficient of aggregating
red blood cells reveals information about blood structural properties. The difficulty in …

A new system for prostate diagnostics based on multifeature tissue characterization is
proposed. Radiofrequency (RF) ultrasonic echo data are acquired during the standard …
