Doppler umbilical artery blood flow velocity waveform measurements are used in perinatal surveillance for the evaluation of fetal condition. There is an ongoing debate on the predictive value of Doppler measurements concerning the critical effect of the selection of parameters for the interpretation of Doppler waveforms. In this paper, we describe how neural network methods can be used both to discover relevant classification features and subsequently to; classify Doppler umbilical artery blood flow velocity waveforms. Results obtained from 199 normal and high risk patients' umbilical artery waveforms highlighted a classification concordance varying from 90 to 98% accuracy. Copyright (C) 1996 Elsevier Science Ltd.

INTERPRETATION OF DOPPLER BLOOD-FLOW VELOCITY WAVE-FORMS USING NEURAL NETWORKS Baykal, Nazife; YALABIK, N; Erkmen, Aydan Müşerref (1994-01-01) Doppler umbilical artery blood flow velocity waveform measurement is used in perinatal surveillance for the evaluation of pregnancy status. There is an ongoing debate on the predictive value of doppler measurements concerning the critical effect of the selection of parameters for the evaluation of doppler output. In this paper, we describe how neural network methods can be used both to discover relevant classification features and subsequently to classify patients. Classification accuracy varied from 92-...
Theoretical and experimental investigation of ultrasound propagation in packed beds Karakaş, Zeynep; Uludağ, Yusuf; Department of Chemical Engineering (2016) Ultrasound propagation through porous medium is investigated theoretically and experimentally in this study. Allowing measurements with opaque medium, giving fast measurements, requiring low cost and being non-invasive make the use of ultrasound based techniques convenient. Propagation of sound is directly related to the physical properties of a porous medium such as porosity, bulk modulus of medium, density of medium, particle size and physical properties of sound such as frequency. Therefore, it becomes p...
Design and realization of a hybrid medical imaging system: harmonic motion microwave doppler imaging Tafreshi, Azadeh Kamali; Gençer, Nevzat Güneri; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2016) Harmonic Motion Microwave Doppler Imaging (HMMDI) is a novel imaging modality to image electrical and mechanical properties of body tissues. This modality is recently proposed by the researchers in the METU EEE department for early-stage diagnosis of cancerous tissues. The main goal of this thesis study is to contribute various stages of the HMMDI's development processes. Speci cally, phantom development, dielectric and elastic characterization of the phantoms, experimental system realization, phantom exper...
Evaluation of multivariate adaptive non-parametric reduced-order model for solving the inverse electrocardiography problem: a simulation study Onak, Onder Nazim; Serinağaoğlu Doğrusöz, Yeşim; Weber, Gerhard Wilhelm (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2019-05-01) In the inverse electrocardiography (ECG) problem, the goal is to reconstruct the heart's electrical activity from multichannel body surface potentials and a mathematical model of the torso. Over the years, researchers have employed various approaches to solve this ill-posed problem including regularization, optimization, and statistical estimation. It is still a topic of interest especially for researchers and clinicians whose goal is to adopt this technique in clinical applications. Among the wide range of...
Investigation of fluid structure interaction in cardiovascular system from diagnostic and pathological perspective Salman, Hüseyin Enes; Yazıcıoğlu, Yiğit; Sert, Cüneyt; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2012) Atherosclerosis is a disease of the cardiovascular system where a stenosis may develop in an artery which is an abnormal narrowing in the blood vessel that adversely affects the blood flow. Due to the constriction of the blood vessel, the flow is disturbed, forming a jet and recirculation downstream of the stenosis. Dynamic pressure fluctuations on the inner wall of the blood vessel leads to the vibration of the vessel structure and acoustic energy is propagated through the surrounding tissue that can be de...
