Ultrasound computed tomography (USCT) is a fast-emerging imaging modality that is expected to help detect and characterize breast tumors by quantifying the distribution of the speed of sound (SOS) and acoustic attenuation in breast tissue. High-quali...
Near-infrared diffuse optical tomography (DOT) is a promising functional modality for breast cancer imaging; however, the clinical translation of DOT is hampered by technical limitations. Specifically, conventional finite element method (FEM)-based o...
BACKGROUND: Respiratory motion induces artifacts in reconstructed cardiac perfusion SPECT images. Correction for respiratory motion often relies on a respiratory signal describing the heart displacements during breathing. However, using external trac...
Patient dose estimation in x-ray-guided interventions is essential to prevent radiation-induced biological side effects. Current dose monitoring systems estimate the skin dose based in dose metrics such as the reference air kerma. However, these appr...
. Arterial wall stiffness can provide valuable information on the proper function of the cardiovascular system. Ultrasound elasticity imaging techniques have shown great promise as a low-cost and non-invasive tool to enable localized maps of arterial...
PURPOSE: To predict subject-specific local specific absorption rate (SAR) distributions of the human head for parallel transmission (pTx) systems at 7 T.
BACKGROUND: Although low-dose computed tomography (CT) imaging has been more widely adopted in clinical practice to reduce radiation exposure to patients, the reconstructed CT images tend to have more noise, which impedes accurate diagnosis. Recently...
BACKGROUND: Digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) has gained popularity as breast imaging modality due to its pseudo-3D reconstruction and improved accuracy compared to digital mammography. However, DBT faces challenges in image quality and quantitative...
