Advanced Machine Learning Techniques for Analysis of 4D Brain Images in Ischemic Stroke Diagnosis and Assessment
DownloadFall 2023
Acute Ischemic Stroke (AIS), a devastating cerebrovascular disorder, is one of the leading causes of disability and mortality worldwide. It occurs when the blood supply to a part of the brain is interrupted, resulting in the deprivation of oxygen and nutrients, leading to neuronal damage and...

Anisotropic Geodesic Filter for Speckle Noise Reduction and Edge Preservation in 2D and 3D Echocardiography
DownloadFall 2018
It is a challenge today for medical practitioners and manufacturers to improve ultrasound image quality as the technology has reached its physical limits. Ultrasound images are a great help for non-invasive diagnostics but suffer from a wide variety of artifacts such as shadowing, limited field...

Sound waves can be generated by shining a pulsed laser on an object of interest. The resulting sound waves can be observed with an ultrasound transducer, and then reconstructed to form an image of the object. The entire process is called "photoacoustic imaging". Medical photoacoustic imaging aims...

Predicting Uterine Deformation Due to Applicator Insertion in Pre-Brachytherapy MRI Using Deep Learning
DownloadSpring 2023
In locally advanced cervical cancer (LACC), brachytherapy (BT) remains the gold standard for boosting to curative doses in radiotherapy. Progress towards balancing target and routine tissue dosimetry for better clinical outcomes has been made possible by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-guided...
