窪田直人, 中川 徹, 小泉憲裕, 佐久間一郎, 門脇 孝, "超音波を用いた内臓脂肪面積計測の開発," MEDIX, Vol.65, pp.11-13, 2016.
内臓脂肪の蓄積は2型糖尿病をはじめとするさまざまな生活習慣病の基盤病態であることが広く認知されている。内臓脂肪は臍位置でのCT断面像で計測された内臓脂肪面積（Visceral Fat Area：以下、VFA）の計測で評価されるが、短期間で繰り返し計測が可能である簡便な測定法が望まれてきた。
そこでわれわれは、超音波診断装置を用いてComputed Tomography（以下、CT）で計測されたVFAと高い相関を持つ推定VFA測定技術の開発を行った。また、健診データからVFAと年齢、BMIの関係について解析を行い、VFA計測の必要性を確認した。ここでは、超音波を用いたVFA計測の開発背景や計測技術の概要、健診データ解析結果について報告する。

Joonho Seo, Norihiro Koizumi, Mamoru Mitsuishi, and Naohiko Sugita, "Ultrasound image based visual servoing for moving target ablation by high intensity focused ultrasound," International Journal of Medical Robotics and Computer Assisted Surgery (IJMRCAS), e1793, DOI: 10.1002/rcs.1793, 2016.
Abstract
Background:
Although high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) is a promising technology for tumor treatment, a moving abdominal target is still a challenge in current HIFU systems. In particular, respiratory-induced organ motion can reduce the treatment efficiency and negatively influence the treatment result. In this research, we present: (1) a methodology for integration of ultrasound (US) image based visual servoing in a HIFU system; and (2) the experimental results obtained using the developed system.
Materials and methods:
In the visual servoing system, target motion is monitored by biplane US imaging and tracked in real time (40 Hz) by registration with a preoperative 3D model. The distance between the target and the current HIFU focal position is calculated in every US frame and a three-axis robot physically compensates for differences. Because simultaneous HIFU irradiation disturbs US target imaging, a sophisticated interlacing strategy was constructed.
Results:
In the experiments, respiratory-induced organ motion was simulated in a water tank with a linear actuator and kidney-shaped phantom model. Motion compensation with HIFU irradiation was applied to the moving phantom model. Based on the experimental results, visual servoing exhibited a motion compensation accuracy of 1.7 mm (RMS) on average. Moreover, the integrated system could make a spherical HIFU-ablated lesion in the desired position of the respiratory-moving phantom model.
Conclusions:
We have demonstrated the feasibility of our US image based visual servoing technique in a HIFU system for moving target treatment.
