Faculty of Veterinary Science3D freehand Ultrasound reconstruction is one of many choices to assemble 3D ultrasound volume from 2D ultrasound images with benefit in low-cost operations, conveniency and ease of usage which can be applied to intraoperative imaging. Ultrasound calibration is the procedure used to find the position and orientation of each acquired 2D ultrasound image in 3D space, hence is needed to be performed before freely moving the ultrasound probe to collect images and reconstruct 3D ultrasound volume. In this paper, we propose our ultrasound calibration system, programmed to be an automated calibration tool—the most convenient and suitable for regular ultrasound calibration performance. The system provides user interface for collecting data from calibration performance, automated ultrasound image segmentation and calibration in an orderly manner. The users are not required to manually select the proper image set or extract images’ feature as an input for the system as opposed to other regular procedures. An option to switch to semiautomatic mode is also added to overcome the problem of segmenting the input images which are low in quality. Hopkins’ phantom and N-wired phantom are supported by the prototype system for the sake of further development.Publication Open Access Distinguishing Renal Cell Carcinoma From Other Focal Renal Lesions on Multidetector Computed Tomography(2020) Pornphan Wibulpolprasert; Chompoonuch Thongthong; Bussanee Wibulpolprasert; พรพรรณ วิบุลผลประเสริฐ; ชมพูนุช ธงทอง; บุษณี วิบุลผลประเสริฐ; Mahidol University. Faculty of Medicine Ramathibodi Hospital. Department of Diagnostic and Therapeutic RadiologyBackground: The increased use of imaging modalities has led to a greater incidence in depicting solid renal mass. These lesions comprise a wide spectrum of malignant such as renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and benign histologies. Objective: To determine the multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) features that discriminate RCC from other focal renal lesions. Methods: A retrospective review was performed on 148 patients who underwent renal CT scan followed by renal surgery or biopsy during January 2008 to July 2014. Specific predictive MDCT features of RCC were determined by logistic regression analysis. Interobserver agreement (kappa [K] values) was also calculated for each CT feature. Results: In 148 pathologic proved focal renal lesions, 91 (61.5%) were RCCs and 57 (38.5%) were non-RCCs. RCCs were more likely to be in male patients (OR, 5.39; 95% CI, 2.25 - 12.90), no internal fat component (OR, 46.50; 95% CI, 5.25 - 411.90), locate at peripheral (OR, 7.41; 95% CI, 1.63 - 33.73), and mixed central-peripheral locations (OR, 26.22; 95% CI, 4.23 - 162.58) of the kidney. There was moderate-to-excellent agreement among the readers over all these features (K = 0.43 - 0.91). Conclusions: Focal renal lesion with no internal fat component in MDCT is the most useful characteristic in differentiating RCCs from others.Item Open Access Annual Report 2012 กองบริหารงานวิจัย มหาวิทยาลัยมหิดล(2013) มหาวิทยาลัยมหิดล. สำนักงานอธิการบดี. กองบริหารงานวิจัยPublication Open Access Improved R2* liver iron concentration assessment using a novel fuzzy c-mean clustering scheme(2015) Pairash Saiviroonporn; Vip Viprakasit; Rungroj Krittayaphong; Mahidol University. Faculty of Medicine Siriraj Hospital. Division of Diagnostic RadiologyBackground: In thalassemia patients, R2* liver iron concentration (LIC) measurement is a common clinical tool for assessing iron overload and for determining necessary chelator dose and evaluating its efficacy. Despite the importance of accurate LIC measurement, existing methods suffer from LIC variability, especially at the severe iron overload range due to inclusion of vessel parts in LIC calculation. In this study, we build upon previous Fuzzy C-Mean (FCM) clustering work to formulate a scheme with superior performance in segmenting vessel pixels from the parenchyma. Our method (MIX-FCM) combines our novel 2D-FCM with the existing 1D-FCM algorithm. This study further assessed possible optimal clustering parameters (OP scheme) and proposed a semi-automatic (SA) scheme for routine clinical application. Methods: Segmentation of liver parenchyma and vessels was performed on T2* images and their LIC maps in 196 studies from 147 thalassemia major patients. We used manual segmentation as the reference. 1D-FCM clustering was performed on the acquired image alone and 2D-FCM used both the acquired image and its LIC data. To execute the MIX-FCM method, the best outcome (OP-MIX-FCM) was selected from the aforementioned methods and was compared to the SA-MIX-FCM scheme. We used the percent value of the normalized interquartile range (nIQR) to its median to evaluate the variability of all methods. Results: 2D-FCM clustering is more effective than 1D-FCM clustering at the severe overload range only, but inferior for other ranges (where 1D-FCM provides suitable results). This complementary performance between the two methods allows MIX-FCM to improve results for all ranges. OP-MIX-FCM clustering error was 2.1 ± 2.3 %, compared with 10.3 ± 9.9 % and 7.0 ± 11.9 % from 1D- and 2D-FCM clustering, respectively. SA-MIX-FCM result was comparable to OP-MIX-FCM result, with both schemes showing ability to decrease overall nIQR by approximately 30 %. Conclusion: Our proposed 2D-FCM algorithm is not as superior to 1D-FCM as hypothesized. In contrast, our MIX-FCM method benefits from the best of both methods to obtain the highest segmentation accuracy at all ranges. Moreover, segmentation accuracy of the practical scheme (SA-MIX-FCM) is comparable to segmentation accuracy of the reference scheme (OP-MIX-FCM). Finally, we confirmed that segmentation is crucial to improving LIC assessments, especially at the severe iron overload range.Publication Open Access Proliferative Myositis: A Comprehensive Review of 33 Case Reports(2019) Pannawat Trerattanavong; Chinnawut Suriyonplengsaeng; Jariya Waisayarat; ปัณณวัฒน์ ตรีรัตนวงศ์; ชินวุฒิ สุริยนเปล่งแสง; จริยา ไวศยารัทธ์; Mahidol University.

Faculty of Medicine Siriraj Hospital. Department of Orthopaedic SurgeryIntroduction: Intrathecal transplantation is a minimally invasive method for the delivery of stem cells, however, whether the cells migrate from the lumbar to the injured cervical spinal cord has not been proved in humans. We describe an attempt to track bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells in a patient with a chronic cervical spinal cord injury. Case presentation: A 33-year-old Thai man who sustained an incomplete spinal cord injury from the atlanto-axial subluxation was enrolled into a pilot study aiming to track bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells, labeled with superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles, from intrathecal transplantation in chronic cervical spinal cord injury. He had been dependent on respiratory support since 2005. There had been no improvement in his neurological function for the past 54 months. Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells were retrieved from his iliac crest and repopulated to the target number. One half of the total cells were labeled with superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles before transplantation to the intrathecal space between L4 and L5. Magnetic resonance imaging studies were performed immediately after the transplantation and at 48 hours, two weeks, one month and seven months after the transplantation. His magnetic resonance imaging scan performed immediately after the transplantation showed hyposignal intensity of paramagnetic substance tagged stem cells in the subarachnoid space at the lumbar spine area. This phenomenon was observed at the surface around his cervical spinal cord at 48 hours. A focal hyposignal intensity of tagged bone marrow-derived stem cells was detected at his cervical spinal cord with magnetic resonance imaging at 48 hours, which faded after two weeks, and then disappeared after one month. No clinical improvement of the neurological function had occurred at the end of this study. However, at 48 hours after the transplantation, he presented with a fever, headache, myalgia and worsening of his motor function (by one grade of all key muscles by the American Spinal Injury Association impairment scale), which lasted for 48 hours. Conclusion: Intrathecal injection of bone marrow-derived stem cells at the lumbar spine level could deliver the cells to the injured cervical spinal cord. Transient complications should be observed closely in the first 48 hours after transplantation. Further study should be carried out to evaluate the result of the treatment.
