Computing patient-specific hemodynamics in stented femoral artery models obtained from computed tomography using a validated 3D reconstruction method
Patients with peripheral artery disease who undergo endovascular treatment are often inflicted by in-stent restenosis. The relation between restenosis and abnormal hemodynamics may be analyzed using patient-specific computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations.
Technical Note: Virtual phantom analyses for preprocessing evaluation and detection of a robust feature set for MRI-radiomics of the brain
The purpose of the paper was to use a virtual phantom to identify a set of radiomic features from T1-weighted and T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain which is stable to variations in image acquisition parameters and to evaluate the effect of image preprocessing on radiomic features stability.
Assessment of the effect of intensity standardization on the reliability of T1-weighted MRI radiomic features: experiment on a virtual phantom
The effect of time of repetition (TR) and time of echo (TE) on radiomic features was evaluated using a virtual phantom. Forty-two T1-weighted MRI images of the same virtual phantom were simulated with TR and TE in a range used in clinical practice.
Evaluation of a Visual Tool for Early Patent Infringement Detection During Design
Patent infringement detection usually implies research among documents in different forms, in both natural and unstructured language, often involving a lot of human resources and time.
Touch or touchless?: evaluating usability of interactive displays for persons with autistic spectrum disorders
Interactive public displays have been exploited and studied for engaging interaction in several previous studies.
Child-display interaction: exploring avatar-based touchless gestural interfaces
During the last decade, touchless gestural interfaces have been widely studied as one of the most promising interaction paradigms in the context of pervasive displays. In particular, avatars and silhouettes have been proved to be effective in communicating the touchless gestural interactivity supported by displays.
Elicitation and evaluation of zoom gestures for touchless interaction with desktop displays
Touchless gestural interaction has been widely studied and adopted in many contexts. Furthermore, the growing availability of low-cost enabling devices, such as Kinect or Leap Motion, boosted up the interest in such interaction both for commercial and scientific purposes, both for large public displays and for personal displays.
A REST-based Framework to Support Non-Invasive and Early Coeliac Disease Diagnosis
The health sector has traditionally been one of the early adopters of databases, from the most simple Electronic Health Record (formerly Computer-Based Patient Record) systems in use in general practice, hospitals and intensive care units to big data, multidata based systems used to support diagnosis and care decisions.
Pervasive Displays Research: What’s Next?
