Methods and devices for noninvasive physiologic fluid volume assessment
Fluid volume status is a physiologic parameter that currently lacks a reliable diagnostic tool. Volume control becomes an issue during sickness and/or stress (physical and mental) in a wide range of populations. Unfortunately, current diagnostics suffer from being imprecise, invasive, and/or easily …

Estimating Root Volumes by Limited Segmentation: A Volumetric Analysis of CBCT and Micro-CT Data
… was to compare the accuracy of digital tooth volumes acquired from CBCT to the gold standard, micro-computed tomography (micro-CT). The second was to determine the effect of axial slice reduction on volume interpolation, using two different interpolation methods. Materials & Methods: Five …

Ultrasound measurements on the inferior vena cava by renal nursing staff for assessment and management of intravascular volume status in haemodialysis patients
… vena cava (IVC-US) by renal nursing staff for assessment and management of intravascular volume status in haemodialysis patients. Aims: The primary aim of this thesis was to provide evidence that renal nurses could safely and efficiently perform IVC-US on haemodialysis patients to obtain …

Development of Medical Device for Volume Status Assessment Using Peripheral Venous Pressure
… catheter can be analyzed to monitor patient volume status. This thesis details the development of an embedded system prototype that quickly and accurately assesses volume status using PVP analysis. The volume prediction algorithm classified 10 seconds of PVP data as “dehydrated” or …

Randomised cross-over trial assessing the impact of angle, area, distance, curvature, volume, spatial coordinates, and effect of eye exercises in surgical task performance: 2D vs 3D laparoscopic vision
… investigate the effect of angle, area, distance, volume, curvature and spatial coordinates in 3D versus conventional 2D imaging in laparoscopic surgery. Furthermore, the rate of visual symptoms seen in 3D laparoscopic surgery and any possible intervention to alleviate this problem need to be …
