In this paper, we present a novel method for line artefacts quantification in lung ultrasound (LUS) images of COVID-19 patients. We formulate this as a non-convex regularisation problem involving a sparsity-enforcing, Cauchy-based penalty function, and the inverse Radon transform. We employ a simple local maxima detection technique in the Radon transform domain, associated with known clinical definitions of line artefacts. Despite being non-convex, the proposed method has guaranteed convergence via a proximal splitting algorithm and accurately identifies both horizontal and vertical line artefacts in LUS images. In order to reduce the number of false and missed detection, our method includes a two-stage validation mechanism, which is performed in both Radon and image domains. We evaluate the performance of the proposed method in comparison to the current state-of-the-art B-line identification method and show a considerable performance gain with 87% correctly detected B-lines in LUS images of nine COVID-19 patients. In addition, owing to its fast convergence, which takes around 12 seconds for a given frame, our proposed method is readily applicable for processing LUS image sequences.

Did you know that the state licenses Gale databases for free access by citizens of Florida? The next time you get a query from an alum or non UF person who wants to use our databases remotely, try showing them the Florida Electronic Library (FEL). The url is: http://www.flelibrary.org/

The FEL includes electronic magazines, newspapers, almanacs, encyclopedias, and books, providing information on topics such as current events, education, business, technology, and health issues. Academic OneFile, General OneFile, US History eCollection, LitFinder and the General Reference Center Gold are a few of the databases included. You can see a list of the databases at: http://www.flelibrary.org/resources/licensed.cfm.

What's the catch? Users need a local library card to access the Florida Electronic Library.
