Ultrasound images show a characteristic type of noise called &#8220;speckles&#8221;, due to random interference patterns and natural acoustic reflections. This kind of noise show a certain type of stability through consecutive frames. Identification and tracking of groups of stable speckle allow to quantify displacement of soft tissues.<br \/>\nThis approach is widely used in ecocardiography in order to estimate atrial or ventricular deformations. We applied this kind of analysis to estimate intima media\/adventitia longitudinal displacement in healthy and in subject with stent implanted.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/n_6iHpHz8Eg\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><img data-attachment-id=\"126\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.imagenglab.com\/newsite\/research\/speckle-tracking-in-ultrasounds-images\/bianco04__1\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/www.imagenglab.com\/newsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/bianco04__1.png?fit=2400%2C1600&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"2400,1600\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"bianco04__1\" data-image-description=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/www.imagenglab.com\/newsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/bianco04__1.png?fit=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/www.imagenglab.com\/newsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/bianco04__1.png?fit=640%2C427&amp;ssl=1\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/www.imagenglab.com\/newsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/bianco04__1-1024x683.png?resize=640%2C427\" alt=\"bianco04__1\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-126\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/www.imagenglab.com\/newsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/bianco04__1.png?resize=1024%2C683&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/www.imagenglab.com\/newsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/bianco04__1.png?resize=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/www.imagenglab.com\/newsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/bianco04__1.png?resize=768%2C512&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/www.imagenglab.com\/newsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/bianco04__1.png?resize=750%2C500&amp;ssl=1 750w, https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/www.imagenglab.com\/newsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/bianco04__1.png?w=1280&amp;ssl=1 1280w, https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/www.imagenglab.com\/newsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/bianco04__1.png?w=1920&amp;ssl=1 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In collaboration with Internal Medicine Unit of Mater Domini General Hospital (Catanzaro) Motion of soft tissues is often quantified through wide used ultrasound images, this modality is non-invasive, non-ionizing and have good time resolution.
