By extending the algorithm, through PMCMC methodology, we are able to estimate hidden physiological parameters as well, like intrinsic conductances or reversal potentials.
For many modeling and simulation applications, rough estimates of physiological parameters may suffice; therefore, the use of such data is justified.
Quantitative analysis of dynamic contrast-enhanced MR images using pharmacokinetic models can provide estimates of physiological parameters such as the transfer constant Ktrans (formally called permeability-surface area product per unit volume of tissue), the volume of extravascular extracellular space (EES) per unit volume of tissue (V e ) and the rate constant (kep also called K21).
As the position of vocal fold varies in each person, the proportion of the vocal fold size as presented in the vocal fold image is different, making it impossible to directly estimate relevant glottis physiological parameters, such as the length, area, perimeter, and opening angle of the glottis.
Optical measurements of biological media (e.g. whole blood or tissue) can be used to estimate physiological or morphological parameters of the sampled medium.
Various physiological parameters estimated at the time of presentation were analyzed to find predictors of mortality.
Following the earlier field studies, a series of chamber studies have provided estimates of several important physiological parameters.
Using the estimated changes in maternal physiological parameters, exposure during pregnancy could be compared with that in non-pregnant adults.
and the statistical significance of changes in physiological parameters was estimated by the Student's t-test [ 6, 7].
This procedure does not cause significant changes in adrenal gland weights [31] and plasma corticosterone levels [32], two physiological parameters used to estimate the stress level in animals.
