Noninvasive Free Flap Monitoring Using Eulerian Video Magnification.

ABSTRACT: Eulerian Video Magnification (EVM) can enhance subtle changes in videos to reveal what was once invisible to the naked eye. In this proof of concept study, we investigated using EVM as a novel form of free flap monitoring. Free flaps with skin paddles were filmed in the operating room with manipulation of their pedicles. In a representative 77-year-old female who received a latissimus dorsi-serratus-rib composite free flap, EVM was able to detect blockage of arterial or venous supply instantaneously, providing a visible representation through degree of color change in videos. EVM has the potential to serve as a powerful free flap monitoring tool with the benefit of being noninvasive, sensitive, easy-to-use, and nearly cost-free.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Videographic material of animals can contain inapparent signals, such as color changes or motion that hold information about physiological functions, such as heart and respiration rate, pulse wave velocity, and vocalization. Eulerian video magnification allows the enhancement of such signals to enable their detection. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate how signals relevant to experimental physiology can be extracted from non-contact videographic material of animals. RESULTS:We applied Eulerian video magnification to detect physiological signals in a range of experimental models and in captive and free ranging wildlife. Neotenic Mexican axolotls were studied to demonstrate the extraction of heart rate signal of non-embryonic animals from dedicated videographic material. Heart rate could be acquired both in single and multiple animal setups of leucistic and normally colored animals under different physiological conditions (resting, exercised, or anesthetized) using a wide range of video qualities. Pulse wave velocity could also be measured in the low blood pressure system of the axolotl as well as in the high-pressure system of the human being. Heart rate extraction was also possible from videos of conscious, unconstrained zebrafish and from non-dedicated videographic material of sand lizard and giraffe. This technique also allowed for heart rate detection in embryonic chickens in ovo through the eggshell and in embryonic mice in utero and could be used as a gating signal to acquire two-phase volumetric micro-CT data of the beating embryonic chicken heart. Additionally, Eulerian video magnification was used to demonstrate how vocalization-induced vibrations can be detected in infrasound-producing Asian elephants. CONCLUSIONS:Eulerian video magnification provides a technique to extract inapparent temporal signals from videographic material of animals. This can be applied in experimental and comparative physiology where contact-based recordings (e.g., heart rate) cannot be acquired.

Project description:Rotating machinery condition monitoring and fault diagnosis are important bases for maintenance decisions, as the vibrations generated during operation are usually imperceptible to the naked eye. Eulerian video motion magnification (EVMM) can reveal subtle changes and has been widely used in various fields such as medicine, structural analysis, and fault diagnosis, etc. However, the method has a bound relationship among three parameters: spatial wavelength, amplification factor, and displacement function, so it is necessary to adjust the parameters manually in practical applications. In this paper, on the basis of the original method, an automatic solution of spatial cutoff wavelength based on brightness is proposed. First, an input video is decomposed into image sequences, their RGB color spaces are transformed into HSV color spaces, and the Value channel image representing brightness is selected to automatically calculate the spatial cutoff frequency, and then the spatial cutoff wavelength is determined, and the motion magnification video in the specified frequency band is obtained by substituting it into the original method. Then, a publicly available video is taken as an example for simulation analysis. By comparing the time-brightness curves of the three videos (original video, motion magnification video obtained by the original method and the improved method), it is apparent that the proposed method exhibits the most significant brightness variation. Finally, taking an overhung rotor-bearing test device as the object, five conditions are set, respectively: normal, rotor unbalance, loosened anchor bolt of the bearing seat, compound fault, rotor misalignment. The proposed method is adopted to magnify the motion of the characteristic frequency bands including 1X frequency and 2X frequency. The results show that no obvious displacement is found in normal working conditions, and that the rotor unbalance fault has an overall axial shaking, the bearing seat at the loose place has an obvious vertical displacement, while the compound fault combines the both fault characteristics, and the rotor misalignment fault has an obvious axial displacement of the free-end bearing seat. The method proposed in this paper can automatically obtain the space cutoff wavelength, which solves the problem of defects arising from manually adjusting the parameters in the original method, and provides a new method for rotating machinery fault diagnosis and other fields of application.
