摘要:
The method decomposes the radio frequency signal into sub-bands by filtering, for example with a time-frequency transform. From the coefficients acquired through decomposition a matrix of spectral coefficients is obtained, from which local estimators are obtained, constituted in particular by the coefficients of the interpolating polynomials. The statistical distribution of the local estimators is evaluated in windows overlaid on the ultrasound frame. The conformation of the distribution histograms of the spectral coefficients provides a parameter which, combined with the local estimators, provides weighted local estimators, which contain spectral information useful in the identification of specific structures in the organ subjected to ultrasound analysis.
摘要:
A method is described, for detecting the presence of a foreign first material (N) randomly applied on an object (BA) under examination formed by a second material, wherein the foreign first material (N) is transparent or semi-transparent and the second material is absorbent and/or scattering at at least one wavelength of an optical radiation. The method provides for lighting a first area (Zl) of the object (BA) by means of at least one optical source (1). The method also provides for framing a second area (Z2) of the object (BA) by means of an optical receiver (3). The optical receiver (3) and the optical source (1) are designed and arranged so that the first area (Zl), lighted by the optical source (1), is different from the second area (Z2) framed by the optical receiver (3). The presence of the foreign first material (N) on a surface of the object (BA) is detected through a change in the optical signal on the optical receiver (3) due to optical radiation emitted by the optical source (1) and conveyed through the foreign first material (N) from the first area (Zl) up until the second area (Z2).
