Wearable computing for patients with coronary diseases
Valter Rocha;Ricardo Seromenho;Joao Correia;Alessandro Mascioletti;Alfredo Picano;Gil Goncalves
Publication Year: 2008,Page(s):37 - 42
Cited by: Papers (5)
Cardiovascular diseases are killing more and more people around the world, striking rich and poor alike. The World Health Organization identifies these diseases as challenges to population health and well being and calls it a global epidemic. These diseases can seriously affect the life of both the patient and family. In tandem with a strategy to provide information and education to individuals at...Show More
Preliminary results on using an extension of gradient method for detection of red lesions on eye fundus photographs
Publication Year: 2008,Page(s):43 - 48
Cited by: Papers (2)
The paper presents an extension of the gradient method for detection of red lesions on images of eye fundus, like a step in an automated system for recognition of diabetic retinopathy. Images of high resolution were corrected for shading and noise and the method was applied by calculating on every pixel the “expanding gradient” of that pixel. This way, a map of the image was obtained and by thresh...Show More
MR compatible actuation for medical instrumentation
Publication Year: 2008,Page(s):49 - 52
Cited by: Papers (3)
Surgical robots and especially their subclass of image-guided systems require special design, construction and control compared to industrial types, due to the special requirements of the medical and imaging environments. Imager compatibility raises significant engineering challenges for the development of robotic manipulators with respect to imager access, safety, ergonomics, and above all the no...Show More
Postoperatory risk classification of prostate cancer patients using support vector machines
Publication Year: 2008,Page(s):53 - 56
Cited by: Papers (1)
This paper proposes a classification scheme of prostate cancer patients based on support vector machines (SVM) classifiers that allow including the diagnosed prostate cancer patients into risk classes, before performing radical prostatectomy, according to their medical parameters. Our objective is to assess the use of SVM in order to predict the individual result of radical prostatectomy performed...Show More
Heart rate variability assessment — physiological and pathological aspects

Publication Year: 2008,Page(s):57 - 59
Cited by: Patents (1)
A significant relationship between autonomic nervous system function and cardiovascular mortality, including sudden death, has been reported. Loss of heart rate variability (HRV) is a strong predictor of mortality in patients post-infarction or with heart failure, but also in diabetes mellitus (DM) patients. The evaluation of the cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy in diabetes mellitus is done wit...Show More
Method for the analysing of blood glucose dynamics in diabetes mellitus patients
Publication Year: 2008,Page(s):60 - 65
Cited by: Papers (21)
Blood glucose dynamics is a fundamental and indispensable concept in the management of the diabetes mellitus. The introduction in the medical practice of the blood glucose continuous monitoring systems has made possible the automated analyse of blood glucose dynamics. Along this paper the authors present the results of the combined time-frequency analysis for short-time periods applied to time ser...Show More
Epidemic propagation models have been applied on modeling the propagation of viruses. Some mathematical models and computer simulations deal with the spatial distribution of susceptible along a line, across a lattice or over a network to overcome the inaccuracies due to the assumption of random mixing of the population. The viral propagation is determined by intrinsic characteristics of the networ...Show More
Evaluation of groundwater contamination and protection measures in a rural area
Publication Year: 2008,Page(s):72 - 76
Clean drinking water plays a very important role in the health of a community. Providing safe drinking water to the people has been a major challenge for Romanian Government in order to achieve the goal of accession into the EU by 2007. The main purpose of this research was to investigate the chemical contamination of groundwater in a rural region from Cluj County, Romania. Samples of water from t...Show More
A hierarchical implementation of medical data transmission
Mihai Munteanu;Corneliu Rusu;Dan Rafiroiu;Gabriel Chindris;Radu A. Munteanu;Rozica Moga
Publication Year: 2008,Page(s):77 - 80
The paper presents different ways of transmitting biomedical signals, depending on the transmissionpsilas range. Thus, the new wireless technologies, combined with the data transmission within a local area network (LAN) or the internet, will contribute to a better health-care system developing.Show More
Information system for the management of the health services in Romania
Publication Year: 2008,Page(s):81 - 85
The paper is focused on presenting an integrated information system, Internet accessible, aimed to provide complete, real-time recording and management of data collected in the process of financing, delivering and distribution of the healthcare services.The implementation of the system is the main objective of the R&D project @quot;The optimization of the financing, production and distribution of ...Show More
Decisional system for treatment response monitoring on genital neoplasia patients
Publication Year: 2008,Page(s):86 - 89
Cancer is the second death cause in the majority of countries, including Romania. Nowadays the main cause of this very aggressive disease is still unclear, the study of cancer risk factors being the object of research. This article presents a framework for developing a decisional system for monitoring of treatment response at genital area cancer patients as well as the assessment of their life exp...Show More
Computed study of shoulder dynamics Kinematics and dynamic analysis of shoulder movement
Publication Year: 2008,Page(s):90 - 93
Cited by: Papers (3)
The coordinated and simultaneous movements of the scapula, clavicle and humerus are necessary for full elevation and normal function of the upper limb. The morphologic structure of the shoulder can be represented, at a first approximation, by a set of geometrical finite elements. Three representations of bone contours are used to model the shoulder mechanism. The development of this type of applic...Show More
