3×3 Technique for RGB Snapshot Mapping of Skin Chromophores

2015

Three monochromatic spectral images have been extracted from a single RGB image data set at simultaneous illumination of skin by 473nm, 532nm and 609nm spectral lines. They were further transformed into distribution maps of three skin chromophores - melanin, oxy-hemoglobin and deoxy-hemoglobin, related to pigmented and vascular skin malformations. Performance and clinical potential of the proposed 3×3 technique is discussed.

Skin chromophore mapping by modified video-microscope

2013

Possibilities to map skin chromophores using a modified low-cost digital video-microscope is discussed. The device comprises CMOS digital imaging sensor, four-colour LED illumination system and image acquisition optics. The main goal is to obtain a set of spectral images of the skin area of interest for further conversion into maps of the main skin chromophores

Skin chromphore mapping by means of a modified video-microscope for skin malformation diagnosis

2013

Many spectral imaging devices are commercially available and used to detect certain skin pathology; however an alternative cost-efficient device can provide an advanced spectral analisys of skin. Multispectral device for diagnosis of pigmented skin lesions was developed and tested. Possibilities to map skin chromophores using a modified low-cost digital video-microscope is discussed. It was adapted for an advanced skin microscopy and used for detailed spectral analysis of skin. The device comprises CMOS digital imaging sensor, four-colour LED illumination system and image acquisition optics. The main goal is to obtain a set of spectral images of the skin area of interest for further convers…

Bonnes pratiques de radiothérapie guidée par l’image

2015

Image-guided radiotherapy (IGRT) aims to take into account the anatomical variations occurring during the course of radiotherapy, by direct or indirect visualization of the target volume followed by a corrective action. The movements of the target, or at least the set-up errors are corrected by moving the treatment table, corresponding to the simplest and most validated IGRT modality in a standard practice. The deformations of the target volume and organs at risk are however much more common, and unfortunately much more complicated to consider, requiring multiple planning before or during the treatment, corresponding to the adaptive radiotherapy strategies. The planning target volume must b…

Contribution of area 19 to the foreground-background-interaction of the cat: an analysis based on single cell recordings and behavioural experiments.

1990

The contribution of area 19 to pattern discrimination in the cat was studied by single cell recordings in this area and by behavioural experiments before and after bilateral lesions. In order to make quantitative comparisons between behavioural performance and that of cell systems, we introduced a new parameter that characterizes visual neurons by their signal-to-noise (S/N) thresholds. A structured visual background made up of Gaussian visual broadband noise which could be moved was superimposed on the signal (moving bars or outline patterns) and the S/N characteristics of the response were determined by varying the signal intensity. The detection performance of cats after bilateral lesion…

Neuronavigation in der Zentralregion: Bedeutung für einzelne Operationsphasen bei verschiedenen Prozesslokalisationen

2000

The neurosurgical treatment of space occupying processes in the central area bears a relatively high risk of either postoperative neurological deficits ("radical approach") or of residual tumor ("conservative approach"). Therefore, special techniques of intraoperative topographic orientation (image-guided surgery) play an important role here. The possible impact of neuronavigation on different neurosurgical steps (craniotomy, corticotomy, localization of the process, definition of borders of resection) was studied in relation to the site of pathology (extraaxial, intraaxial/superficial, intraaxial/deep) in 46 patients harbouring space occupying lesions of the central area. In intraaxial pat…

Darmkontrastierung bei der abdominellen Computertomographie: Wasser oder Kontrastmittel?

1991

The suitability of water as an oral or rectal contrast medium for abdominal CT was studied in 56 patients and compared with an iodine-containing water-soluble contrast medium (ioxital amino acid). In some cases it was impossible to differentiate gastrointestinal structures from extraluminal fluid collections (cystic tumours, ascites, abscesses) and there was poor filling of distal small bowel and colon. The routine use of water can, therefore, not be recommended. In some cases, however, water can result in improved image quality by reducing artifacts and improving the demonstration of the mucosa.
