scholarly journals Probabilistic Neural Network and Genetic Algorithm for Abdominal Aorta Aneurysm Identification

An abdominal aorta aneurysm (AAA) can cause severe threat if it burst. Doctors can detect the presence of AAA by using abdominal ultrasound. As the treatment depends on the location and size, accuracy plays a significant role. To prevent devastating clinical outcome in this proposed work, new approaches and algorithms were used for generating the infallible result. After processing the AAA image by using notch filter, exudate based segmentation is performed and the selected features gets classified by using probabilistic neural network classifier. By using PNN classifier, accuracy and sensitivity gets enhanced in this work. The achieved accuracy is 98% and sensitivity 97.5%. While analogizing the proposed work with other existing work. It’s very facile to perform and expected target gets achieved

Retroperitoneal fibrosis is a rare fibrosing reactive process that may be confused with mesenteric fibromatosis. Abdominal aorta aneurysm is rare too and mostly develops secondary to Behcet’s disease, trauma, and infection or connective tissue diseases. Incidence of aneurysms occurring as a result of atherosclerotic changes increases in postmenopausal period. Diagnosis can be established with arteriography, tomography, or magnetic resonance imaging associated with clinical findings. Tumors and cysts should be considered in differential diagnosis. Abdominal ultrasound and contrast-enhanced computerized tomography revealed an infrarenal abdominal aorta aneurysm in a 41-year-old woman, but, on surgery, retroperitoneal fibrosis surrounding the aorta was detected. We present this interesting case because retroperitoneal fibrosis encircling the abdominal aorta can mimic abdominal aorta aneurysm radiologically.
