6 results about "Wall motion" patented technology

Regional wall motion abnormality means that the motion of a region of the heart muscle is abnormal. It is a term commonly used in echocardiography. Echocardiography is ultrasound imaging of the heart.

Method and device for estimating motion of a chamber wall based on an adaptive regularized optical flow model

The application relates to a method and device for estimating a ventricular wall motion based on an adaptive regularization optical flow model, belonging to the technical field of ultrasonic image processing. The method is characterized in that: firstly, the obtained optical flow vector is analyzed through two-dimensional wavelet analysis and function mapping to obtain motion boundary information of the motion field relative to sudden change; secondly, the sudden change motion boundary information is adaptively fed back to the optical flow calculation model to correct the regularization coefficient of the smoothing term and recalculate the optical flow field; finally, the optical flow calculation process is repeated until the wavelet high-frequency component of the optical flow field converges; the method reflects the gradient difference between the myocardial ventricular wall and the surrounding tissue in the regularization coefficient, thereby improving the accuracy of motion estimation.

Measuring pulse wave velocity using ultrasound

PendingUS20260137372A1Image enhancementImage analysisIn vivoHealthy subjects
Pulse wave velocity (PWV) is a measure of arterial stiffness and a cardiovascular disease risk factor. Accurate PWV estimation is difficult due to complex arterial dynamics, such as longitudinal motion and natural tissue oscillations. This present disclosure relates to a robust, motion-resistant PWV estimation framework including: 1) tracking and compensating for arterial longitudinal wall motions, 2) suppressing undulating arterial motion via common mode rejection, and 3) enhancing differential signals to extract wall expansion. In vitro experiments with induced lateral motion indicate the framework's PWV estimates (6.19±0.33 m / s) closely matched reference values (6.26±0.12 m / s; error: 1.1%), outperforming methods without motion compensation (4.46±1.78 m / s; error: 28.8%). In vivo trials with five healthy subjects showed an average PWV of 4.18±0.56 m / s using the motion-resistant method, compared to 2.54±0.95 m / s without motion compensation (p<0.005). This framework enhances PWV estimation reliability, offering clinical potential for better arterial stiffness assessment and cardiovascular risk stratification.

ActiveCN115457025BReduce calculation proportionImprove calculation accuracyImage enhancementImage analysisImage correctionWall motion
The application relates to a chamber wall segment motion estimation method based on confidence weight analysis of optical flow tracking, belongs to the technical field of ultrasonic image processing, and aims to solve problems such as the need to rely on subjective judgment of doctors and quality of echocardiographic images for myocardial functional abnormalities. Through optical flow calculation based on confidence weight analysis, motion vector decomposition and ROI region dynamic tracking, the dynamic motion field of each segment is accurately calculated, and finally, the myocardial segment motion time curve is obtained. The optical flow calculation method based on confidence weight analysis corrects the motion amount from top to bottom through a Gaussian pyramid algorithm, combines image correction technology, adds an image "confidence weight matrix", greatly reduces the calculation proportion of the "shadow" place by using the confidence weight coefficient, and thus improves the accuracy of optical flow calculation. Through motion vector decomposition, ROI region dynamic tracking is realized, the motion characteristic information of the myocardial segment is more accurately reflected, and the calculation precision of the myocardial chamber wall motion is improved.
