An automated differential blood count system
Ongun, G; Halıcı, Uğur; Leblebicioğlu, Mehmet Kemal; Atalay, Mehmet Volkan; Beksac, M; Beksac, S (2001-10-28)
While the early diagnosis of hematopoietic system disorders is very important in hematolgy, it is a highly complex and time consuming task. The early diagnosis requires a lot of patients to be followed-up by experts which, in general is infeasible because of the required number of experts. The differential blood counter (DBC) system that we have developed is an attempt to automate the task performed manually by experts in routine. In our system, the cells are segmented using active contour models (snakes an...
A high-throughput microfluidic rare cell enrichment system based on dielectrophoresis and filtering
Ozkayar, Gurhan; Yalcin, Yagmur Demircan; Ozgur, Ebru; Gündüz, Ufuk; Külah, Haluk (2016-05-27)
In this study, a MEMS-based microfluidic device combining DEP-based cell manipulation with size-based filtration for the enrichment of CTCs from blood with high-throughput was developed. Positive-DEP (pDEP) force and the hydrodynamic force have been used to fine-tune the cell movement over the planar electrodes (sliding) at a high flow rate (30 mu l/min). While smaller sized RBCs passed through the gaps and were directed to the waste channels, cancer cells (K562 cells) were filtered and directed to the canc...
An intelligent BIM-based automated progress monitoring system using self-navigating robots for data acquisition
Hassan, Muhammad Usman; Akçamete Güngör, Aslı; Department of Civil Engineering (2018)
Construction managers require a continuous flow of timely and accurate site status information that is acquired efficiently for successful project delivery. Current methods of data acquisition from the site are error-prone, laborious, and unable to provide timely information to project stakeholders for effective decision making. In this research, we developed a methodology for extraction of data points using BIM, acquisition of progress data using self-navigating robots, estimation of progress information u...
Red and white blood cell classification using Artificial Neural Networks
Çelebi, Simge; null, null; Burkay Çöteli, Mert (American Institute of Mathematical Sciences (AIMS), 2018)
Blood cell classification is a recent topic for scientists working on the diagnosis of blood cell related illnesses. As the number of computer vision (CV) applications is increasing to improve quality of human life, it spreads in the areas of autonomous drive, surveillance, robotic applications, telecommunications and etc. The number of CV applications also increases in the medical sector due the decreasing value of doctors per patient ratio (DPPR) in urban and suburban areas. A doctor working in such areas...
An automated blood cell analysis and classification system
Ongun, G; Halıcı, Uğur; Leblebicioğlu, Mehmet Kemal; Atalay, Mehmet Volkan; Erkmen, Aydan Müşerref; Beksac, S; Beksac, M; Erol, A (1998-01-01)
Direct analysis of blood and bone marrow smear images obtained from microscope are not common in current trends of hematology. Current blood smear analysis methods heavily depend on flow cytometry based techniques in which the blood cells are flew through microtubes thus classified according to their flow characteristics and cell volumes. This method is an indirect way of measuring features hence is accurate at a certain level. In this work an automated blood cell classification system is presented includin...
