Tracer kinetic modelling, based on dynamic F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) is used to quantify glucose metabolism in humans and animals. Knowledge of the arterial input-function (AIF) is required for such measurements. O...
Eating behavior can have an important effect on, and be correlated with, obesity and eating disorders. Eating behavior is usually estimated through self-reporting measures, despite their limitations in reliability, based on ease of collection and ana...
BACKGROUND: Distinguishing ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) from invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC) regions in clinical biopsies constitutes a diagnostic challenge. Spatial transcriptomics (ST) is an in situ capturing method, which allows quantification ...

BACKGROUND: Advances in image reconstruction are necessary to decrease radiation exposure from coronary CT angiography (CCTA) further, but iterative reconstruction has been shown to degrade image quality at high levels. Deep-learning image reconstruc...
The deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) is the most commonly used free flap in mastectomy reconstruction. Preoperative imaging techniques are routinely used to detect location, diameter and course of perforators, with direct intervention from ...
In recent years, there are several cost-effective intelligent sensing systems such as ultrasound imaging systems for visualizing the internal body structures of the body. Further, such intelligent sensing systems such as ultrasound systems have been ...
Small and manipulable objects (tools) preferentially evoke a network of brain regions relative to other objects, including the lateral occipitotemporal cortex (LOTC), which is assumed to process tool shape information. Given the correlation between v...
