A thorough understanding of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) function and the effects of surgical interventions on knee biomechanics requires robust technologies and simulation paradigms that align with clinical insight. In vitro orthopedic biomechan...
Dental caries is the most prevalent chronic condition worldwide. Early detection can significantly improve treatment outcomes and reduce the need for invasive procedures. Recently, near-infrared transillumination (TI) imaging has been shown to be eff...

Percutaneous needle puncture operation is widely used in the image-guided interventions, including biopsy and ablation. MRI guidance has the advantages of high-resolution soft tissue imaging and thermal monitoring during energy-based ablation. This p...
Big data problems are becoming more prevalent for laboratory scientists who look to make clinical impact. A large part of this is due to increased computing power, in parallel with new technologies for high quality data generation. Both new and old t...
Caveolae are plasma membrane invaginations whose formation requires caveolin-1 (Cav1), the adaptor protein polymerase I, and the transcript release factor (PTRF or CAVIN1). Caveolae have an important role in cell functioning, signaling, and disease. ...
In recent years, physiological features have gained more attention in developing models of personal thermal comfort for improved and accurate adaptive operation of Human-In-The-Loop (HITL) Heating, Ventilation, and Air-Conditioning (HVAC) systems. Pu...

In this paper, a new approach is proposed for localization and segmentation of the optic disc in human retina images. This new approach can find the boundary of the optic disc by an initial fuzzy clustering means algorithm. The proposed approach uses...
This paper introduces an unsupervised adversarial similarity network for image registration. Unlike existing deep learning registration methods, our approach can train a deformable registration network without the need of ground-truth deformations an...
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is the most common demyelinating disease. In MS, demyelination occurs in the white matter of the brain and in the spinal cord. It is thus essential to measure the tissue myelin content to understand the physiopathology of MS, ...
Schizophrenia has a 1% incidence rate world-wide and those diagnosed present with positive (e.g. hallucinations, delusions), negative (e.g. apathy, asociality), and cognitive symptoms. However, both symptom burden and associated brain alterations are...
