Minimally invasive medical procedures, such as endovascular catheterization, have considerably reduced procedure time and associated complications. However, many regions inside the body, such as in the brain vasculature, still remain inaccessible due...
PURPOSE: In order to improve the reconstruction accuracy of magnetic induction tomography (MIT) and achieve fast imaging especially in the detection of cerebral hemorrhage, artificial intelligence algorithms are proposed to improve the accuracy of MI...
The potential huge advantage of spectral computed tomography (CT) is that it can provide accurate material identification and quantitative tissue information by material decomposition. However, material decomposition is a typical inverse problem, whe...

Sparse-view computed tomography (CT) is a recent approach to reducing the radiation dose in patients and speeding up the data acquisition. Consequently, sparse-view CT has been of particular interest among researchers within the CT community. Advance...
Biomedical imaging is unequivocally dependent on the ability to reconstruct interpretable and high-quality images from acquired sensor data. This reconstruction process is pivotal across many applications, spanning from magnetic resonance imaging to ...
Delay-and-sum (DAS) beamforming is unable to identify individual scatterers when their density is so high that their point spread functions overlap. This paper proposes a convolutional neural network (CNN)-based method to detect and localize high-den...
Image reconstruction of ultrasound computed tomography based on the wave equation is able to show much more structural details than simpler ray-based image reconstruction methods. However, to invert the wave-based forward model is computationally dem...
We developed a fluence map prediction method that directly generates fluence maps for a given desired dose distribution without optimization for volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) planning. The prediction consists of two steps. First, projection...
