Novel 3D Ultrasound Imaging Techniques Using Top-Orthogonal-to-Bottom-Electrode (TOBE) Arrays
DownloadFall 2019
Ultrasound imaging is a safe, affordable and reliable diagnostic tool widely used in medical professions. While 2D ultrasound imaging is used extensively in clinical environments, 3D ultrasound imaging has not yet seen wide clinical acceptance. This is partly due to the practical limitations on...

Reliability and Effect of Arm Positions Used During Imaging on Spinal Alignment Parameters in Healthy and Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis Populations
DownloadSpring 2024
Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is a 3D spine disorder with lateral curvature, vertebral rotation, and sagittal changes. AIS affects 2-3% of the adolescent population. Adolescents with progressive idiopathic scoliosis receive numerous x-rays throughout their treatment, exposing them to...

Reliability of Three-dimensional Ultrasound Parameters and Their Correlation with the Progression of Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis
DownloadFall 2016
Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is a three-dimensional (3D) spinal deformity with unknown causes and with prevalence of 1.5 - 3% of adolescents. If AIS is left untreated, it may progress, leading to back pain, cardiopulmonary problems, and psychosocial concerns, and eventually resulting in...
