Neural network pattern recognition of lingual-palatal pressure for automated detection of swallow.

Dysphagia
We describe a novel device and method for real-time measurement of lingual-palatal pressure and automatic identification of the oral transfer phase of deglutition. Clinical measurement of the oral transport phase of swallowing is a complicated proces...

[Tongue swabs: a novel tool for tuberculosis screening].

Zhonghua jie he he hu xi za zhi = Zhonghua jiehe he huxi zazhi = Chinese journal of tuberculosis and respiratory diseases
Tuberculosis (TB) remains a significant global public health threat. Achieving the 2035 target for TB elimination requires interrupting its community transmission, which depends critically on enhancing case detection. Active screening for TB in commu...

Ultrasound measurement of relative tongue size and its correlation with tongue mobility for healthy individuals.

JASA express letters
The size of an individual's tongue relative to the oral cavity is associated with articulation speed [Feng, Lu, Zheng, Chi, and Honda, in Proceedings of the 10th Biennial Asia Pacific Conference on Speech, Language, and Hearing (2017), pp. 17-19)] an...

An Annotated Multi-Site and Multi-Contrast Magnetic Resonance Imaging Dataset for the study of the Human Tongue Musculature.

Scientific data
This dataset provides the first annotated, openly available MRI-based imaging dataset for investigations of tongue musculature, including multi-contrast and multi-site MRI data from non-disease participants. The present dataset includes 47 participan...

Mandarin Speech Reconstruction from Tongue Motion Ultrasound Images based on Generative Adversarial Networks.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Speech impairment resulting from laryngectomy causes severe physiological and psychological distress to laryngectomee. In clinical practice, the upper vocal tract articulatory organs function normally in most laryngectomee. The potential to reconstru...

A new method for identification of traditional Chinese medicine constitution based on tongue features with machine learning.

Technology and health care : official journal of the European Society for Engineering and Medicine
BACKGROUND: The theory of Chinese medicine (TCM) constitution contributes to the optimisation of individualised healthcare programmes. However, at present, TCM constitution identification mainly relies on inefficient questionnaires with subjective bi...

Intelligent quality control of traditional chinese medical tongue diagnosis images based on deep learning.

Technology and health care : official journal of the European Society for Engineering and Medicine
BACKGROUND: Computer-aided tongue and face diagnosis technology can make Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) more standardized, objective and quantified. However, many tongue images collected by the instrument may not meet the standard in clinical app...

Assessing Mode-Switching Strategies for Assistive Robotic Manipulators Using a Preliminary Version of the Novel Non-invasive Tongue-Computer Interface.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
The inductive tongue-computer interface allows individuals with tetraplegia to control assistive devices. However, controlling assistive robotic arms often requires more than 14 different commands, which cannot always fit into a single control layout...

On the change in Speech Quality and Speed with a Tongue Interface for Control of Rehabilitation Robotics - A Case report.

IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
Previous studies have described inductive tongue computer interfaces (ITCI) as a way to manipulate and control assistive robotics, and at least one commercial company is manufacturing ITCI today. This case report investigates the influence of an ITCI...

[Transoral robotic surgery for treatment of lingual thyroglossal duct cyst].

Zhonghua er bi yan hou tou jing wai ke za zhi = Chinese journal of otorhinolaryngology head and neck surgery
To investigate the feasibility, safety and efficacy of transoral robotic surgery (TORS) in the treatment of lingual thyroglossal duct cyst (LTGDC). The clinical data of 10 patients with LTGDC treated with TORS in Tongji Hospital affiliated to Tongj...
