BACKGROUND: Material characterization of brain white matter (BWM) is difficult due to the anisotropy inherent to the three-dimensional microstructure and the various interactions between heterogeneous brain-tissue (axon, myelin, and glia). Developing...
Our brain undergoes significant micro- and macroscopic changes throughout its life cycle. It is therefore crucial to understand the effect of aging on the mechanical properties of the brain in order to develop accurate personalized simulations and di...
While advances in single-particle cryo-EM have enabled the structural determination of macromolecular complexes at atomic resolution, particle orientation bias (the 'preferred' orientation problem) remains a complication for most specimens. Existing ...
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to develop DiffDL, a generative diffusion probabilistic model designed to produce high-quality diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) and diffusion kurtosis imaging (DKI) metrics from a reduced set of diffusion-weighted...
Spiking neural networks seek to emulate biological computation through interconnected artificial neuron and synapse devices. Spintronic neurons can leverage magnetization physics to mimic biological neuron functions, such as integration tied to magne...
Estimating seismic anisotropy parameters, such as Thomson's parameters, is crucial for investigating fractured and finely layered geological media. However, many inversion methods rely on complex physical models with initial assumptions, leading to n...
BACKGROUND: The identification and measurement of aortic aneurysms is an important clinical problem. While specialized high-resolution 3D CMR sequences allow detailed aortic assessment, they are time-consuming which limits their use in screening rout...
Diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (diffusion MRI) is widely employed to probe the diffusive motion of water molecules within the tissue. Numerous diseases and processes affecting the central nervous system can be detected and monitored via diffusi...

Accurate modeling of cardiovascular tissues is crucial for understanding and predicting their behavior in various physiological and pathological conditions. In this study, we specifically focus on the pulmonary artery in the context of the Ross proce...
Imaging technologies based on vector optical fields hold significant potential in the biomedical field, particularly for non-invasive scattering imaging of anisotropic biological tissues. However, the dynamic and anisotropic nature of biological tiss...
