Purpose: The present study was initiated to det. the conditions under which a single photodynamic treatment would induce maximal damage to a tumor with no or at least minimal reversible damage to a normal striated muscle. Methods and Materials: The techniq ...
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Under standardized conditions (drug and light dose, timing), the result of the photodynamic therapy (PDT) of carcinomas of the esophagus with tetra(meta-hydroxyphenyl)chlorin (mTHPC) shows large variations between patients. STUDY ...
An approach for person identification is described based on spatio-temporal analysis of the talking face. A person is represented by a parametric model of the visible speech articulators and their temporal characteristics during speech production. The mode ...
This thesis presents a learning based approach to speech recognition and person recognition from image sequences. An appearance based model of the articulators is learned from example images and is used to locate, track, and recover visual speech features. ...
This paper describes a robust method for extracting visual speech information from the shape of lips to be used for an automatic speechreading (lipreading) systems. Lip deformation is modelled by a statistically based deformable contour model which learns ...
We describe a robust method for locating and tracking lips in gray-level image sequences. Our approach learns patterns of shape variability from a training set which constrains the model during image search to only deform in ways similar to the training ex ...

In vivo spectrofluorometric analysis during photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a tool to obtain information about fluorophore bleaching kinetics in tissue. Using a cylindrical esophageal light distributor for PDT with an integrated sensing fiber, together with ...
The pharmacokinetics of the photosensitizer 5,10,15,20-tetra(m-hydroxyphenyl)chlorin (mTHPC) was investigated in the plasma of 20 patients by absorption and fluorescence spectroscopy. The temporal behavior was characterized by a rapid decrease in concn. du ...
