Coupling between high-frequency ultrasound and solar photo-Fenton at pilot scale for the treatment of organic contaminants: An initial approach

César Pulgarin, Stefanos Papoutsakis

This study aims to evaluate the performance of a novel pilot-scale coupled system consisting of a high frequency ultrasonic reactor (400 kHz) and a compound parabolic collector (CPC). The benefits of the concurrent application of ultrasound and the photo-F ...

Semi-Supervised Segmentation of Ultrasound Images Based on Patch Representation and Continuous Min Cut

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Meritxell Bach Cuadra, Xavier Bresson, Olivier Cuisenaire, Nawal Houhou, Anca-Ramona Ciurte

Ultrasound segmentation is a challenging problem due to the inherent speckle and some artifacts like shadows, attenuation and signal dropout. Existing methods need to include strong priors like shape priors or analytical intensity models to succeed in the ...

The main problem associated with the administration of anti-cancer medication is that the drug is delivered throughout the body causing undesirable side effects. Therefore, it is important to synthesize drug carriers capable of minimizing the adverse side ...

Acousto-optical coherence tomography (AOCT) is a variant of acousto-optic imaging (also called ultrasound modulated optical tomography) that makes possible to get resolution along the ultrasound propagation axis z. We present here AOCT experimental results ...

Calibration Using Matrix Completion with Application to Ultrasound Tomography

Martin Vetterli, Amin Karbasi, Reza Parhizkar

We study the calibration process in circular ultrasound tomography devices where the sensor positions deviate from the circumference of a perfect circle. This problem arises in a variety of applications in signal processing ranging from breast imaging to s ...

Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers2013

Acousto-optic imaging is based on light interaction with focused ultrasound in a scattering medium. Thanks to photorefractive holography combined with pulsed ultrasound, we perform a time-resolved detection of ultrasound-modulated photons in the therapeuti ...

Theoretical Study for Safe and Efficient Energy Transfer to Deeply Implanted Devices Using Ultrasound

Catherine Dehollain

The goal of this paper is to prove that a safe and efficient energy transfer is possible between an external transducer located on the patient's skin and a device deeply implanted in the abdomen. An ultrasound propagation model based on the Rayleigh-Sommer ...

An Efficient Segmentation Method for Ultrasound Images based on a Semi-supervised Approach and Patch-based Features

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Meritxell Bach Cuadra, Xavier Bresson, Nawal Houhou, Anca-Ramona Ciurte, Alessia Pica

Segmenting ultrasound images is a challenging problem where standard unsupervised segmentation methods such as the well-known Chan-Vese method fail. We propose in this paper an efficient segmentation method for this class of images. Our proposed algorithm ...

Accurate calibration is a requirement of many array signal processing techniques. We investigate the calibration of a transducer array using time delays. We derive a strategy based on the mean square error criterion and discuss how time delays that are not ...
