• Fully automatic real-time ejection fraction and MAPSE measurements in 2D echocardiography using deep neural networks 

      Smistad, Erik; Østvik, Andreas; Salte, Ivar Mjåland; Leclerc, Sarah; Bernard, Olivier; Løvstakken, Lasse (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      Cardiac ultrasound measurements such as left ventricular volume, ejection fraction (EF) and mitral annular plane systolic excursion (MAPSE) are time consuming and highly observer dependent. In this work, we investigate if ...
    • Perspectives of optical colourimetric sensors for anaerobic digestion 

      Lamb, Jacob Joseph; Bernard, Olivier; Sarker, Shiplu; Lien, Kristian Myklebust; Hjelme, Dag Roar (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      Although biogas is not a new approach to producing renewable fuel, it could further be developed to improve its potential as an alternative energy source. To achieve this, vast improvements in the efficiency and cost of ...
    • Perspectives of surface plasmon resonance sensors for optimized biogas methanation 

      Lamb, Jacob Joseph; Bernard, Olivier; Sarker, Shiplu; Lien, Kristian Myklebust; Hjelme, Dag Roar (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      Biogas production is becoming significantly viable as an energy source for replacing fossil‐based fuels. The further development of the biogas production process could lead to significant improvements in its potential. ...
    • Real-Time Automatic Ejection Fraction and Foreshortening Detection Using Deep Learning 

      Smistad, Erik; Salte, Ivar Mjåland; Østvik, Andreas; Melichova, Daniela; Nguyen, Thuy Mi; Haugaa, Kristina; Brunvand, Harald; Edvardsen, Thor; Leclerc, Sarah; Bernard, Olivier; Grenne, Bjørnar; Løvstakken, Lasse (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      Volume and ejection fraction (EF) measurements of the left ventricle (LV) in 2-D echocardiography are associated with a high uncertainty not only due to interobserver variability of the manual measurement, but also due to ...
    • The UltraSound ToolBox 

      Rodriguez-Molares, Alfonso; Rindal, Ole Marius Hoel; Bernard, Olivier; Nair, Arun; Bell, Muyinatu A. Lediju; Liebgott, Herve; Austeng, Andreas; Løvstakken, Lasse (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)
      We present the UltraSound ToolBox (USTB), a processing framework for ultrasound signals. USTB aims to facilitate the comparison of imaging techniques and the dissemination of research results. It fills the void of tools ...
