Association of body surface scanner-based abdominal volume with parameters of the Metabolic Syndrome and comparison with manually measured waist circumference [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2020
To investigate abdominal volume determined by a new body scanner algorithm as anthropometric marker for Metabolic Syndrome (MetS) and its parameters compared to manually measured waist circumference (WC), we performed body scans in 411 participants (38 ...

Mass Screening of Multiple Abdominal Solid Organs Using Mobile Helical Computed Tomography Scanner—A Preliminary Report

open access: yesAsian Journal of Surgery, 2007
The possibility of a new screening procedure for multiple abdominal solid organs using a mobile helical computed tomography (CT) scanner was evaluated. Methods: A total of 4,543 residents, who were 40 years of age or older, received CT scanning without ...

The feasibility of patient size‐corrected, scanner‐independent organ dose estimates for abdominal CT exams [PDF]

open access: yesMedical Physics, 2011
Purpose:A recent work has demonstrated the feasibility of estimating the dose to individual organs from multidetector CT exams using patient‐specific, scanner‐independent‐to‐organ‐dose conversion coefficients. However, the previous study only investigated organ dose to a single patient model from a full‐body helical CT scan.

Endoscopic Laser Surface Scanner for Minimally Invasive Abdominal Surgeries

open access: yesLecture Notes in Computer Science, 2018
Minimally invasive surgery performed under endoscopic video is a viable alternative to several types of open abdominal surgeries. Advanced visualization techniques require accurate patient registration, often facilitated by reconstruction of the organ surface in situ.

Multiple Mycotic Aneurysms of the Abdominal Aorta Illustrated on MDCT Scanner

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Imaging Science, 2015
Infective mycotic aneurysm of the aorta is a rare and life-threatening disease. A patient presenting with constitutional symptoms and pulsatile abdominal mass should raise a suspicion of mycotic aneurysm. Early detection of aortic mycotic lesions in such patients should play a key role in the treatment of aortic aneurysms. Multiple mycotic aneurysms of

Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Screening Using Non-imaging Hand-held Ultrasound Volume Scanner – A Pilot Study [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery, 2006
Screening for abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) is cost-effective and timely repair improves outcome. Using standard ultrasound (US) an AAA can be accurately diagnosed or ruled-out. However, this requires training and bulk equipment.To evaluate the diagnostic potential of a new hand-held ultrasound bladder volume indicator (BVI) in the setting of AAA ...

Diagnostic abdominal MR imaging on a prototype low-field 0.55 T scanner operating at two different gradient strengths

open access: yesAbdominal Radiology, 2021
To develop a protocol for abdominal imaging on a prototype 0.55 T scanner and to benchmark the image quality against conventional 1.5 T exam.In this prospective IRB-approved HIPAA-compliant study, 10 healthy volunteers were recruited and imaged. A commercial MRI system was modified to operate at 0.55 T (LF) with two different gradient performance ...
