| Abstract |
Read more…Speckle noise is a characteristic artifact in breast ultrasound images since it hinders substantive information which assists the physician in diagnosing breast cancer accurately. Removing speckle noise while retaining finer details of the image is a prerequisite for breast ultrasound Computer Aided Diagnosis (CAD) systems. A modified Non Local Means (NLM) model using FCM clustering based pre classification and RIBM for removing speckle noise from breast ultrasound images is proposed in this article. The computationally intensive NLM filters have never been suitable candidates for real time image processing due to their sulky performance. Considering the NLM’s robustness against noise, it can be an appropriate filter for speckle degraded breast ultrasound images, if processing speed is improved. In this work, we have integrated FCM clustering based pre classification for reducing the processing time of NLM and Rotationally Invariant Block Matching (RIBM) for improved noise removal performance. The performances of the proposed framework is tested on synthetic images with artificially introduced speckle and evaluated using statistical parameters such as MSE, PSNR and SSIM. We have also utilized a Breast Ultra Sound (BUS) image database of 32 images including 17 benign cysts and 15 malignant tumors for the quantitative evaluation of the method. The experiment results are numerically evaluated using EPI and ENL as parameters and a comparative study is also performed with another state of the art method. The results produced an EPI of 0.2184 and ENL of 6.122 on the BUS image database which evidenced the superior performance of proposed method in preserving the finer details of the tumor while removing speckle noise. |

| Title | OPTIMIZATION OF A HIGH RESOLUTION MELTING METHOD FOR THE DETECTION OF ALPHA THALASSAEMIA BASED ON A POINT MUTATION (HbCS). |
| Paper ID | KIR6r |
| Keywords | HbCS mutation; High resolution melting; Different shaped curves |
| Abstract |
Read more…Background and aim. The Haemoglobin Constant Spring (HbCS) mutation is one of the most common non-deletion variants causing Alpha-Thalassaemia disease. High Resolution Melting analysis was developed to detect HbCS mutation on HbA2 gene effectively to decrease the alpha-thalassaemia hereditary for offsprings. Materials and Methods. Two healthy non-pregnant DNA samples and seven HbCS positive DNA samples was collected and detected by a real-time PCR SYRBGreen assay. The Realtime PCR assay was optimized based on the concentration of PCR reagents like DNA template, DMSO, Mg2+. The DNA fragment containing alleles of the mutation is amplified from the assay and will be analyzed by melting curve. Results. According to the normalized melting curve and the temperature shifted different plot, the difference in melting curve shapes present and the genotype of each individual which is related to the disease will be indicated clearly. The HRM method was optimized and developed successfully. The condition with 5% of DMSO and 2.5mM of MgCl2 is the best PCR condition and gave out the best separated melting curve shape in discriminating three various genotypes. Conclusion. This study showed that the HRM analysis is a reliable, simple tool and effective cost method for identifying HbCS variant in alpha globin genes and could be applied in clinical diagnostics. |
