Assessment of Collaborative Robot (Cobot)-Assisted Histotripsy for Venous Clot Ablation.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
OBJECTIVE: The application of bubble-based ablation with the focus ultrasound therapy histotripsy is gaining traction for the treatment of venous thrombosis, among other pathologies. For extensive clot burden, the histotripsy source must be translate...

Calibrated uncertainty estimation for interpretable proton computed tomography image correction using Bayesian deep learning.

Physics in medicine and biology
Integrated-type proton computed tomography (pCT) measures proton stopping power ratio (SPR) images for proton therapy treatment planning, but its image quality is degraded due to noise and scatter. Although several correction methods have been propos...

Addressing signal alterations induced in CT images by deep learning processing: A preliminary phantom study.

Physica medica : PM : an international journal devoted to the applications of physics to medicine and biology : official journal of the Italian Association of Biomedical Physics (AIFB)
PURPOSE: We investigate, by an extensive quality evaluation approach, performances and potential side effects introduced in Computed Tomography (CT) images by Deep Learning (DL) processing.

CycleGAN for interpretable online EMT compensation.

International journal of computer assisted radiology and surgery
PURPOSE: Electromagnetic tracking (EMT) can partially replace X-ray guidance in minimally invasive procedures, reducing radiation in the OR. However, in this hybrid setting, EMT is disturbed by metallic distortion caused by the X-ray device. We plan ...

Modeling complex particles phase space with GAN for Monte Carlo SPECT simulations: a proof of concept.

Physics in medicine and biology
A method is proposed to model by a generative adversarial network the distribution of particles exiting a patient during Monte Carlo simulation of emission tomography imaging devices. The resulting compact neural network is then able to generate part...

A Direct Drive Parallel Plane Piezoelectric Needle Positioning Robot for MRI Guided Intraspinal Injection.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
UNLABELLED: Recent developments in the field of cellular therapeutics have indicated the potential of stem cell injections directly to the spinal cord. Injections require either open surgery or a Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) guided injection. Nee...

Reconstruction of Organ Boundaries With Deep Learning in the D-Bar Method for Electrical Impedance Tomography.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
OBJECTIVE: Medical electrical impedance tomography is a non-ionizing imaging modality in which low-amplitude, low-frequency currents are applied on electrodes on the body, the resulting voltages are measured, and an inverse problem is solved to deter...

Accelerated white matter lesion analysis based on simultaneous and quantification using magnetic resonance fingerprinting and deep learning.

Magnetic resonance in medicine
PURPOSE: To develop an accelerated postprocessing pipeline for reproducible and efficient assessment of white matter lesions using quantitative magnetic resonance fingerprinting (MRF) and deep learning.

DeepMC: a deep learning method for efficient Monte Carlo beamlet dose calculation by predictive denoising in magnetic resonance-guided radiotherapy.

Physics in medicine and biology
Emerging magnetic resonance (MR) guided radiotherapy affords significantly improved anatomy visualization and, subsequently, more effective personalized treatment. The new therapy paradigm imposes significant demands on radiation dose calculation qua...

Machine learning and registration for automatic seed localization in 3D US images for prostate brachytherapy.

Medical physics
PURPOSE: New radiation therapy protocols, in particular adaptive, focal or boost brachytherapy treatments, require determining precisely the position and orientation of the implanted radioactive seeds from real-time ultrasound (US) images. This is ne...
