A computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) system for the classification of lesions as malignant or benign in automated 3-D breast ultrasound (ABUS) images, is presented. Lesions are automatically segmented when a seed point is provided, using dynamic programming in combination with a spiral scanning technique. A novel aspect of ABUS imaging is the presence of spiculation patterns in coronal planes perpendicular to the transducer. Spiculation patterns are characteristic for malignant lesions. Therefore, we compute spiculation features and combine them with features related to echotexture, echogenicity, shape, posterior acoustic behavior and margins. Classification experiments were performed using a support vector machine classifier and evaluation was done with leave-one-patient-out cross-validation. Receiver operator characteristic (ROC) analysis was used to determine performance of the system on a dataset of 201 lesions. We found that spiculation was among the most discriminative features. Using all features, the area under the ROC curve (A(z)) was 0.93, which was significantly higher than the performance without spiculation features (A(z)=0.90, p=0.02). On a subset of 88 cases, classification performance of CAD (A(z)=0.90) was comparable to the average performance of 10 readers (A(z)=0.87). 相似文献

We investigate and extend the ideal observer methodology developed by Smith and Wagner to detection and discrimination tasks related to breast sonography. We provide a numerical approach for evaluating the ideal observer acting on radio frequency (RF) frame data, which involves inversion of large nonstationary covariance matrices, and we describe a power-series approach to computing this inverse. Considering a truncated power series suggests that the RF data be Wiener-filtered before forming the final envelope image. We have compared human performance for Wiener-filtered and conventional B-mode envelope images using psychophysical studies for 5 tasks related to breast cancer classification. We find significant improvements in visual detection and discrimination efficiency in four of these five tasks. We also use the Smith-Wagner approach to distinguish between human and processing inefficiencies, and find that generally the principle limitation comes from the information lost in computing the final envelope image. 相似文献

This paper addresses the problem of jointly estimating the statistical distribution and segmenting lesions in multiple-tissue high-frequency skin ultrasound images. The distribution of multiple-tissue images is modeled as a spatially coherent finite mixture of heavy-tailed Rayleigh distributions. Spatial coherence inherent to biological tissues is modeled by enforcing local dependence between the mixture components. An original Bayesian algorithm combined with a Markov chain Monte Carlo method is then proposed to jointly estimate the mixture parameters and a label-vector associating each voxel to a tissue. More precisely, a hybrid Metropolis-within-Gibbs sampler is used to draw samples that are asymptotically distributed according to the posterior distribution of the Bayesian model. The Bayesian estimators of the model parameters are then computed from the generated samples. Simulation results are conducted on synthetic data to illustrate the performance of the proposed estimation strategy. The method is then successfully applied to the segmentation of in vivo skin tumors in high-frequency 2-D and 3-D ultrasound images. 相似文献

This paper discusses the recent advances in the highly multidisciplinary field of quantitative ultrasound (QUS) imaging. QUS relies heavily on signal processing techniques to extract information about underlying tissue microstructure. As such, modern signal processing strategies will prove to be critical in further improving and refining QUS techniques. 相似文献

超声成像因非侵入式、成本低且实时性好而被广泛应用。超声系统需要大量的采集通道数据和较高的采样率来提高图像重建质量,导致成像耗时,系统复杂。压缩感知(compressed sensing, CS)算法能够在欠采样的条件下用较少的测量值重构出原始信号。因此,针对系统面临的采样率高,数据量大的问题,本文将CS理论中的DWT-IRLS算法应用在超声成像中,通过离散小波变换基(discrete wavelet transformation, DWT)对超声数据进行稀疏转换,对高低频系数进行采样测量,并使用迭代重加权最小二乘法(iterative reweighted least squares, IRLS)进行测量系数重构,最后对变换域系数进行DWT逆转换得到重建图像。通过实验分析,以50%原始数据重建图像效果逐渐趋于稳定,在均方误差和峰值信噪比方面进行对比分析,DWT-IRLS算法相比较于DWT-OMP、DWT-CoSamp和DCT-IRLS等重构算法,成像质量更高,细节特征更为明显。 相似文献

Almost invariably, a new baby's photo album begins with a grainy black-and-white picture taken months before birth- a prenatal ultrasound image, which is often detailed enough to inspire comments about the child's resemblance to various members of the family. But jokes about balding uncles notwithstanding, such scans serve a serious purpose and can prove immensely important, as when they allow doctors to diagnose and sometimes even repair a congenital malformation while the baby is still in the womb. 相似文献

为了研究离焦量对激光超声信号幅值的影响,采用相同能量的脉冲激光辐照不同厚度的铝质试块进行了工件测厚的实验。光路会聚采用焦距100mm的平凸球面聚焦透镜,将该透镜固定于5维光学调整架上,调节水平轴旋钮以改变离焦量;利用中心频率5MHz的压电探头接收激光超声波信号,并记录所有试块在每个离焦量下的超声信号数据;依据信号之间的时间间隔,求出每个铝质试块的厚度。结果表明,测厚结果与工件实际厚度之间的相对误差均在3%范围内;在等量激光脉冲激励下,当工件表面处于离焦量-10mm时,获得信号的幅值最大。 相似文献

High computational and throughput requirements in modern ultrasound machines have restricted their internal design to algorithm-specific hardware with limited programmability. The authors have architected a programmable ultrasound processing system, Programmable Ultrasound Image Processor (PUIP), to facilitate engineering and clinical ultrasound innovations. Multiple high-performance multimedia processors were used to provide a computing power of 4 billion operations per second. Flexibility was achieved by making the system programmable and multimodal, e.g., B-mode, color flow, cine and Doppler data can be processed. They have successfully designed and implemented the PUIP to fit within an ultrasound machine. It provides a platform for rapid testing of new concepts in ultrasound processing and enables software upgrades for future technologies. Current and future clinical applications include extended fields of view, quantitative measurements, three-dimensional ultrasound reconstruction and visualization, adaptive persistence, speckle reduction, edge enhancement, image segmentation, and motion analysis. The PUIP is a significant step in the evolution of ultrasound machines toward more flexible and generalized systems bridging the gap between many innovative ideas and their clinical use in ultrasound machines 相似文献

Nonparametric estimation of ultrasound pulses 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
An algorithm for nonparametric estimation of 1D ultrasound pulses in echo sequences from human tissues is derived. The technique is a variation of the homomorphic filtering technique using the real cepstrum, and the underlying basis of the method is explained. The algorithm exploits a priori knowledge about the structure of RF line echo data and can employ a number of adjacent RF lines from an image. The prime application of the algorithm is to yield a pulse suitable for deconvolution algorithms. This will enable these algorithms to properly take into account the frequency dependence of the attenuation and its variation within a patient and among patients. It is also possible to use the estimated pulse for attenuation estimation, and the consistency of the assumptions underlying the proposed technique is demonstrated by its ability to recover low variance attenuation estimates in the normal liver from in vivo pulse-echo data. Estimates are given for 8 different patients 相似文献
