Quantification of motor activity in biomedicine | A computer-assisted analysis of motor activity was carried out using ultrasound waves, that are not invasive and free from any kind of interference, because of their specific characteristics. We worked out the Doppler's effect which determines a frequency variation on the reflected wave from any body in motion. That variation is linked to the velocity of the moving body and the superimposition of the emitted wave with those reflected, results in beats, which have a frequency proportional to the motor activity velocity. Our research group planned and carried out an electronic quantification apparatus that can be interfaced with a personal computer system by means of an Analog to Digital acquisition card. The performed test on the apparatus confirmed that the theory that the number of antinodes detected was proportional to the space covered by the moving body.

[Use of laser Doppler flowmetry in dentistry]. | An early determination of pulpal vitality is crucial with respect to a correct differential diagnosis of revascularisation or necrosis and its treatment. The use of sensibility tests (cold, heat, electrical pulp test) in combination with X-ray are commonly promoted. However these tests are arbitrary, based on sensations and therefore not always reliable. In such situation the registration of 'real' pulpal blood flow and hence pulp vitality will be more than an added value. The most studied and well documented method is laser Doppler flowmetry (LDF) as it is non invasive, direct and objective. In this article we describe blood flow, LDF and its characteristics, advantages and disadvantages of this method and the newest developments regarding LDF.

We present a non-invasive technique named gyrocardiography (GCG) that comprises a sensor of angular motion, gyroscope, configured to obtain three-dimensional angular velocity signals. A tri-axial micro electromechanical (MEMS) gyroscope sensor was attached to the surface of the chest to obtain gyrocardiogram.

By placing a region of interest longitudinally around the myocardium in DTI allowed us to investigate whether GCG can provide information indicative of the tissue velocity and relative strain rate of the myocardium. Experimental observations by simultaneously recorded GCG and color DTI suggests that a gyroscope sensor attached to the chest is indeed capable to monitor the myocardial deformation during the cardiac cycle and therefore can provide a gateway to clinically relevant information. | eng_Latn | 3,219 |

EEG measures voltage fluctuations resulting from ionic current within the neurons of the brain. In clinical contexts, EEG refers to the recording of the brain's spontaneous electrical activity over a period of time, as recorded from multiple electrodes placed on the scalp. | eng_Latn | 3,259 |
Device for carrying out the non-invasive determination of the concentration of constituents in the blood | The invention relates to a device and method for carrying out the non-invasive in-vivo detection of interactions between a living body and a part of the sensor block of the inventive device, for carrying out the parallel or sequential determination of the concentration of one or more different constituents in a living body or in the tissue and blood thereof, in particular but not exclusively, glucose, and for establishing additional medically relevant quantities (e.g. pulse, blood circulation, oxygen saturation of the blood, pH value, temperature, etc.) at individual suitable points on the body. All measurement data is recorded in a temporal process, digitized, and is mathematically converted in an appropriate manner. The results are associated with the concentration values of the blood constituents to be analyzed by using an empirical calibration function. In addition, the device contains means for wirelessly transmitting the measurement data and/or the evaluation results to a medical central station. | In view of the complex process of information integration and untimely data sharing during data acquisition of small sluices, it is necessary to establish a real-time data security monitoring platform, which involves solving the data transmission problem of different types of sensors and multi-measurement points. Taking a small sluice as an example, a data acquisition scheme for multi-type communication interface and the solution of real-time data monitoring for multi-measurement points are introduced. The working principle of the sensor in the monitoring system is discussed. The software function of the monitoring system is discussed. The real-time data acquisition, monitoring and management in the operation of the sluice are realized.
