This paper analyses the performance of four different feature-selection approaches of the Karhunen-Loève expansion (KLE) method to select the most discriminant set of features for computer-assisted classification of bioprosthetic heart-valve status.

In most studies that were aimed at evaluating the kinetics of red blood cell (RBC) aggregation, human blood was initially circulated at a high shear rate to disrupt the aggregates, and measurements were performed following a complete flow stoppage, d

Purpose: The study was done to improve quantification of multiple arterial stenoses and to investigate a new imaging technique for lower limb arteries. Three-dimensional power Doppler angiography was used to quantify in vitro arterial stenoses. Metho

The objectives of this study were to detect differences in the Doppler power backscattered by blood in vivo, and to identify factors affecting the backscattered power. The main hypothesis was that variations in the erythrocyte aggregation level betwe

The Doppler signal is generally considered as a Gaussian random process. However, to date very little experimental validation of this model has been available. Recently, the K model was proposed to describe the statistical properties of ultrasonic ra

Blood flow turbulence downstream of a concentric 86 percent area reduction stenosis was characterized using absolute and relative Doppler spectral broadening measurements, relative Doppler velocity fluctuation, and Doppler backscattered power. Bidi-m

The objective of this study was to evaluate in vitro the accuracy of the Doppler velocity ratio (VR) (intrastenotic velocity/prestenotic or poststenotic velocity) under different geometric conditions simulating the presence of multiple stenoses. A st

The main objective of the present work was to investigate, under pulsatile flow, the patterns of variation of the Doppler power backscattered by blood and Sephadex particles upstream and downstream of concentric and eccentric stenoses ranging from 47

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to provide a quantitative evaluation of the effect of adjacent segment lesions on disease classification in lower limb arteries by ultrasonic duplex scanning. Methods: Lower limb arterial duplex scanning from th

The normality (Gaussian property) and stationarity of the cardiac Doppler blood-flow signal were evaluated on short-time segments distributed over the cardiac cycle. The basic approaches used to perform statistical tests on the nonstationary and quas
