Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging is commonly used in the clinical setting to non-invasively monitor the body. There exists a large variability in MR imaging due to differences in scanner hardware, software, and protocol design. Ideally, a…

We propose a novel approach to denoising diffusion magnetic resonance images (dMRI) using convolutional neural networks, that exploits the benefits of data acquired at multiple b-values to offset the need for many redundant observations.…

In this paper, we consider the intensity-based inversion method (IIM) for quantitative material parameter estimation in quasi-static elastography. In particular, we consider the problem of estimating the material parameters of a given…

Super-resolution ultrasound (SRUS) imaging through localising and tracking sparse microbubbles has been shown to reveal microvascular structure and flow beyond the wave diffraction limit. Most SRUS studies use standard delay and sum (DAS)…

We present a study of the numerical solution of the two dimensional electrical impedance tomography problem, with noisy measurements of the Dirichlet to Neumann map. The inversion uses parametrizations of the conductivity on optimal grids.…

Intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) secondary to Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) represents a critical diagnostic challenge, with approximately 64,000 TBI-related deaths annually in the United States. Current diagnostic modalities including Computed…

Besides reducing undesired sources (interfering sources and background noise), another important objective of a binaural beamforming algorithm is to preserve the spatial impression of the acoustic scene, which can be achieved by preserving…

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a versatile imaging technique that allows different contrasts depending on the acquisition parameters. Many clinical imaging studies acquire MRI data for more than one of these contrasts---such as for…

Metasurfaces represent a new paradigm in artificial subwavelength structures due to their potential to overcome many challenges typically associated with bulk metamaterials. The ability making very thin structures and change their…

Imaging methods based on array signal processing often require a fixed propagation speed of the medium, or speed of sound (SoS) for methods based on acoustic signals. The resolution of the images formed using these methods is strongly…

Ultrasound (US) imaging is based on the time-reversal principle, in which individual channel RF measurements are back-propagated and accumulated to form an image after applying specific delays. While this time reversal is usually…

For quantitative seismic imaging, iterative least-squares reverse time migration is the recommended approach. The existence of an inverse of the forward modelling operator would considerably reduce the number of required iterations. In the…

Photoacoustic image (PAI) quality improvement using a low frequency piezoelectric micromachined ultrasound transducer (PMUT) having the fundamental resonant frequency 1 MHz is being reported. Specifically, three different methods are…

Delay-and-sum (DAS) algorithms are widely used for beamforming in linear array photoacoustic imaging systems and are characterized by fast execution. However, these algorithms suffer from various drawbacks like low resolution, low contrast,…

Respiratory sound classification is hindered by the limited size, high noise levels, and severe class imbalance of benchmark datasets like ICBHI 2017. While Transformer-based models offer powerful feature extraction capabilities, they are…

A shift of paradigm is currently underway in biomedical ultrasound thanks to plane and diverging waves for ultrafast imaging. One remaining challenge consists in the correction of phase and amplitude aberrations induced during propagation…

Several applications of medical ultrasound can benefit from a larger field of view (FOV). This study is aimed at increasing the FOV of linear array probes by increasing the element width. Coupled elements were used to imitate a larger…

Traditional hyperspectral unmixing methods neglect the underlying variability of spectral signatures often observed in typical hyperspectral images (HI), propagating these missmodeling errors throughout the whole unmixing process. Attempts…

Perturbations to the effective refractive index from nanometer-scale fabrication variations in waveguide geometry plague high index-contrast photonic platforms including the ubiquitous sub-micron silicon-on-insulator (SOI) process. Such…

Diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (dMRI) plays a vital role in both clinical diagnostics and neuroscience research. However, its inherently low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), especially under high diffusion weighting, significantly…
