Measuring blood pressure using a photoplethysmography approach
(Springer-Verlag, 2008-06)
Blood pressure is often measured using a device called a sphygmomanometer, a stethoscope, and a blood pressure cuff. All the existing manual or automatic measuring techniques of blood pressure are based on this principle, ...
Development of web-based medical history compiler
(Springer-Verlag, 2007)
The medical industry is moving towards ‘personalized medicine’ in all aspects of healthcare services, due to the realisation that each human body is different and ideally requires particular combination of drugs and ...
Prolonging glucose sensor's performance in In Vivo environment
(Faculty of Computer Science & Information Technology, University of Malaya, 2006)
In this paper, a sol gel based needle type biosensor using 3-glycidoxypropyl dimethylethoxy silane, as silane agent was developed to improve the immobilization efficiency of glucose oxidase (GOD). The glucose sensor was ...
Measuring of systolic blood pressure based on heart rate
(Springer-Verlag, 2008-06)
In this paper, we describe the method of noninvasive blood pressure (BP) measurement using electrocardiography (ECG) signal to measure arterial blood pressure. Here, we propose a continuous blood pressure monitoring method ...
A quantitative study of post-biopsy radiofrequency cauterization
(Springer-Verlag, 2007)
Percutaneous image-guided needle biopsy is typically performed in highly vascular organs or in tumors with rich macroscopic and microscopic blood supply. The main risks related to this procedure are bleeding and implantation ...
Temperature modeling of therapeutic ultrasound: a preliminary finding
(Springer-Verlag, 2007)
The temperature model of therapeutic ultrasound for human tissue is important in order to design an accurate instrumental assessment and calibration of therapeutic ultrasound device. The focus of this study is to verify ...
A low cost solution for post-biopsy complications using available RFA generator and coaxial core biopsy needle
(Australia College of Physical Scientists and Engineers in Medicine (ACPSEM), 2007)
Percutaneous image-guided needle biopsy is typically performed in highly vascular organs or in tumours with rich macroscopic and microscopic blood supply. The main risks related to this procedure are haemorrhage and ...
Improvement of Glucose Oxidase Immobilization using Sol-Gel technique
(Universiti Malaysia Perlis, 2007)
A sol gel based needle type biosensor using 3-glycidoxypropyl dimethylethoxy silane, as silane agent was developed to improve the immobilisation efficiency of glucose oxidase (GOD). The glucose sensor was coated with ...
Application of thresholding technique in determining ratio of blood cells for Leukemia detection
(Universiti Malaysia Perlis, 2009-10-11)
Fast and cost-effective production of blood cell count reports are of paramount importance in the healthcare industry.
The traditional method of manual counting under a microscope yields inaccurate results and put an ...
Psychological Stress Sensor
(Kementerian Pengajian Tinggi Malaysia (KPTM), 2005-09-30)
Stress could be roughly described as the opposite of relaxation. This state is referred as the reaction of a human to external stimulus by a famous endocrinologist, Hans Selye in 1936. Stress signifies different things for ...
