Several arterial diseases are closely related with mechanical properties of the blood vessel and interactions of flow-vessel dynamics such as mean flow velocity, wall shear stress (WSS) and vascular strain. However, there is an opportunity to improve...
In order to solve the problem of low accuracy, high cost, and difficult detection of traditional algorithms, a new algorithm based on ultrasound imaging is proposed in this paper. The algorithm is based on fuzzy clustering to diagnose the disease and...

OBJECTIVE: To explore the image enhancement model based on deep learning on the effect of ureteroscopy with double J tube placement and drainage on ureteral stones during pregnancy. We compare the clinical effect of ureteroscopy with double J tube pl...
Ultrasound imaging has been developed for image-guided radiotherapy for tumor tracking, and the flexible array transducer is a promising tool for this task. It can reduce the user dependence and anatomical changes caused by the traditional ultrasound...
Cardiovascular disease remains a substantial cause of morbidity and mortality in the developed world and is becoming an increasingly important cause of death in developing countries too. While current cardiovascular treatments can assist to reduce th...
