Rapid MR image acquisition in the presence of background gradients
- Trang 725-728
D.C. Noll
Image acquisition in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is based on the application of external gradients to traverse the 2D Fourier domain of the object, known as k-space. This model holds up very well provided the underlying magnetic field is highly homogeneous, however, this is often not the case, particularly for higher field MRI. The constant component of magnetic field inhomogeneity can lead t...... hiện toàn bộ

An accurate segmentation method for white blood cell images
- Trang 245-248
Qingmin Liao, Yingying Deng
A part of our research work on an Automated Cell Count project is described. A major requirement for this project is an efficient method to segment cell images. This work presents an accurate segmentation method for an automatic count of white blood cells. First a simple thresholding approach is applied to give initial labels to pixels in the blood cell images. The algorithm is based on priori inf...... hiện toàn bộ

Harmonic multiresolution estimators for denoising and regularization of SPECT-PET data
- Trang 697-700
E.D. Angelini, J. Kalifa, A.F. Laine
This paper presents a study on the development of new multiresolution directional analysis tools for texture denoising of medical images. Multiresolution. texture analysis is performed with wavelet packets and brushlet expansions to exploit spatio-temporal coherence and identify persistent anatomical structures while removing uncorrelated noise components. Denoising is performed via thresholding e...... hiện toàn bộ

Scanning mirror for optical coherence tomography using an electrostatic MEMS actuator
- Trang 297-300
J.M. Zara, J.A. Izatt, K. Divakara Rao, S. Yazdanfar, S.W. Smith
Describes the development of a new type of optical coherence tomography (OCT) probe using an electrostatic micromachine (MEMS) actuator. These devices consist of millimeter scale mirrors resting on micron scale polyimide hinges that are tilted using a linear MEMS actuator, the integrated force array (IFA). The IFA is a parallel network of deformable capacitor cells that electrostatically contract ...... hiện toàn bộ

In vivo imaging of blood-spinal cord barrier permeability with dynamic contrast enhanced MRI of spinal cord injury
- Trang 153-156
M. Bilgen, B. Dogan, P.A. Narayana
Serial in vivo dynamic contrast enhanced MRI studies were performed on spinal cord injured rats on post-injury days 0, 10, 20 and 30 to determine the distribution of gadopentetate-dimeglumine (Gd) concentration in injured cord tissue. A two-compartment pharmacokinetic model was fitted to describe the time course of the concentration data at the epicenter of injury for each post-injury day. From th...... hiện toàn bộ

Fluorescence imaging in optical diffusion tomography
- Trang 58-61
A.B. Milstein, Q. Zhang, S. Oh, K.J. Webb, C.A. Bouman, R.R. Millane, D.A. Boas
A Bayesian optimization scheme is presented for reconstructing fluorescent yield and lifetime, the absorption coefficient, and the scattering coefficient in turbid media, such as biological tissue. The proposed method utilizes measurements at both the excitation and emission wavelengths for reconstructing all unknown parameters. A tissue phantom experiment uses the inversion strategy to reconstruc...... hiện toàn bộ

Robust rotations between anatomical curves
- Trang 337-340
B. Avants, J. Gee
We give a method for estimating the optimal rotation between anatomical curves corrupted by segmentation noise. We formulate the energy function probabilistically and use an annealing algorithm with explicit outlier rejection to stabilize our solution. We also provide methods for a nearly symmetric estimation of the rigid transformation between three-dimensional curve pairs. We evaluate the perfor...... hiện toàn bộ

Movement correction of fMRI time-series using intrinsic statistical properties of images: an independent component analysis approach
- Trang 765-768
R. Liao, J. Krolik, M.J. McKeown
A 3D image registration method for alignment of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) time-series, based on independent component analysis (ICA), is described. Movement during acquisition of an fMRI time-series corrupts the statistics of the acquired data, resulting in an increase in the joint entropy of the data and a decrease in the entropy of a nonlinear function of the independent compo...... hiện toàn bộ

Reconstruction of temperature distributions in a passive acoustic thermotomography
- Trang 1011-1014
V.I. Passechnik, K.M. Bograchev
Passive acoustic thermotomography is a method for measuring 2-D and 3-D temperature distributions deep inside biological objects using measurements of the objects own thermal acoustic radiation. Acoustic radiation, coming from deep within a body, is measured at 20 points on the surface and for every point the acoustic radiation is measured at a different angle to the surface. The key step in the m...... hiện toàn bộ

Supertemporal resolution of functional MRI timecourse data
- Trang 911-914
Sea Chen, C.A. Bouman, M.J. Lowe
High temporal resolution is critical in understanding the faster evolving processes in the blood oxygenation level dependent (BOLD) response used in functional magnetic resonance imaging. However, sampling rates faster than the T1 relaxation rate may introduce distortions of the measured BOLD signal due to spin saturation and blood inflow effects. We have developed a technique called the supertemp...... hiện toàn bộ
