Objective quantification of the vocal fold vascular pattern: comparison of narrow band imaging and white light endoscopy
No clinical standard procedure has yet been defined to quantify the vascular pattern of vocal folds. Subjective classification trials have shown a lot of promise. Narrow band imaging (NBI) as an endoscopic ima...

Evaluation of Time-Dependent Wall Shear Stress Visualizations for Cerebral Aneurysms
For the rupture risk assessment of cerebral aneurysms, the blood flow is approximated using computational fluid dynamics (CFD). Unsteady CFD inflow conditions yield time-dependent vector fields, from which the...
