Added value of 2D shear wave imaging of the gallbladder bed of the liver for acute cholecystitis [PDF]

open access: yesUltrasonography, 2020
Purpose The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether shear wave elastography (SWE) and the shear wave dispersion slope (SWD) obtained from 2-dimensional shear wave imaging (2D-SWI) of the gallbladder (GB) bed of the liver could be helpful in the ...

On Validation of Non-physical Techniques for Elastic Image Registration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Non-physical techniques for elastic image registration such as different spline-based optimization methods are often applied in biomedical applications for image normalization w.r.t. non-rigid transformations. Since mechanical properties of biological structures to be registered are usually unknown, a “ground truth”validation of the results of image ...
