Security Architecture Design Process for Health Information Exchanges (HIEs)

September 30, 2010
Author(s)
Matthew A. Scholl, Kevin M. Stine, Kenneth Lin, Daniel Steinberg
The purpose of this publication is to provide a systematic approach to designing a technical security architecture for the exchange of health information that leverages common government and commercial practices and that demonstrates how these practices

Simulation Model for the IEEE 802.15.3/3b WPAN Standard

September 15, 2010
Author(s)
Kamran Sayrafian
The1IEEE 802.15.3 is an emerging technology for high data rate wireless multimedia applications in Wireless Personal Area Networks (WPAN). In this paper, a discrete event simulation model has been implemented using OPNET2 Modeler to simulate the essential

Statistical Modeling of Harvestable Kinetic Energy for Wearable Medical Sensors

June 15, 2010
Author(s)
Nathalie Yarkony, Kamran Sayrafian, Antonio Possolo
Energy Harvesting (EH) refers to the process of capturing and storing energy from external sources or ambient environment. Kinetic energy harvested from the human body motion seems to be one of the most convenient and attractive solution for wearable

CT Assessment of Response to Therapy: Tumor Volume Change Measurement, Truth Data & Error

December 9, 2009
Author(s)
Charles D. Fenimore, Michael McNitt-Gray, Luc Bidaut, Samuel G. Armato, Charles R. Meyer, Marios A. Gavrielides, Geoffrey McLennan, Nicholas Petrick, Binsheng Zhao, Anthony P. Reeves, Reinhard R. Beichel, Grace Kim
Rationale and Objectives: This manuscript describes issues and methods that are specific to the measurement of change in tumor volume as measured from CT images and how these would relate to the establishment of CT tumor volumetrics as a biomarker of

Quantitative Imaging to Assess Tumor Response to Therapy: Common Themes of Measurement, Truth Data & Error Sources

December 1, 2009
Author(s)
Charles D. Fenimore, Charles R. Meyer, Samuel G. Armato, Geoffrey McLennan, Luc Bidaut, Daniel P. Barboriak, Marios A. Gavrielides, Nicholas Petrick, Edward F. Jackson, Michael McNitt-Gray, Paul E. Kinahan, Binsheng Zhao
Rationale and Objectives Early detection of tumor response to therapy is a key goal. Finding measurement algorithms capable of early detection of tumor response could individualize therapy treatment as well as reduce the cost of bringing new drugs to

A Statistical Path Loss Model for Medical Implant Communication Channels

September 16, 2009
Author(s)
Kamran Sayrafian, Wen-Bin Yang, John G. Hagedorn, Judith E. Terrill, Kamya Yazdandoost
Knowledge of the propagation media is a key step toward a successful transceiver design. Such information is typically gathered by conducting physical experiments, measuring and processing the corresponding data to obtain channel characteristics. In case
