Breast lesion classification based on supersonic shear-wave elastography and automated lesion segmentation from B-mode ultrasound images.

Computers in biology and medicine Dec 15, 2017
Supersonic shear-wave elastography (SWE) has emerged as a useful imaging modality for breast lesion assessment. Regions of interest (ROIs) were required to be specified for extracting features that characterize malignancy of lesions. Although analyse...

Comparison of penile length at 6-24 months between children with unilateral cryptorchidism and a healthy normal cohort.

Investigative and clinical urology Dec 15, 2017
PURPOSE: Urologic diseases affected by testosterone can be associated with smaller penis size compared to the normal population. We sought to compare penile length in children with unilateral cryptorchidism and normative data from a cohort of healthy...
