For decades, ultrasound images have been widely used in the detection of various diseases due to their high security and efficiency. However, reading ultrasound images requires years of experience and training. In order to support the diagnosis of cl...
There is an increased desire for miniature ultrasound probes with small apertures to provide volumetric images at high frame rates for in-body applications. Satisfying these increased requirements makes simultaneous achievement of a good lateral reso...
PURPOSE: We aimed to investigate the usefulness of iViz air ver.4 Convex (FUJIFILM, Tokyo) as a tool to determine the bladder capacity before prostate radiotherapy by comparing it with the existing BladderScan BVI 6100 (Verathon Inc., Bothell, Washin...

PURPOSE: An inevitable feature of ultrasound-based diagnoses is that the quality of the ultrasound images produced depends directly on the skill of the physician operating the probe. This is because physicians have to constantly adjust the probe posi...
Ultrasound features related to thyroid lesions structure, shape, volume, and margins are considered to determine cancer risk. Automatic segmentation of the thyroid lesion would allow the sonographic features to be estimated. On the basis of clinical ...
