Stroke is a common disabling neurological condition that affects about one-quarter of the adult population over age 25; more than half of patients still have poor outcomes, such as permanent functional dependence or even death, after the…

The purpose of this work is to demonstrate a robust and clinically validated method for correcting sound speed aberrations in medical ultrasound. We propose a correction method that calculates focusing delays directly from the observed…

Diffusion MRI is the modality of choice to study alterations of white matter. In past years, various works have used diffusion MRI for automatic classification of AD. However, classification performance obtained with different approaches is…

Congenital uterine anomalies (CUAs) can lead to infertility, miscarriage, preterm birth, and an increased risk of pregnancy complications. Compared to traditional 2D ultrasound (US), 3D US can reconstruct the coronal plane, providing a…

Accelerated Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) permits high quality images from fewer samples that can be collected with a faster scan. Two established methods for accelerating MRI include parallel imaging and compressed sensing. Two types of…

Multi-echo Gradient Echo (mGRE) sequences provide valuable quantitative parametric maps, such as Quantitative Susceptibility Mapping (QSM) and transverse relaxation rate (R2*), sensitive to tissue iron and myelin. However, structural…

An extended aperture has the potential to greatly improve ultrasound imaging performance. This work extends the effective aperture size by coherently compounding the received radio frequency data from multiple transducers. A framework is…

In 2020 we first described placental contractions, and we have now undertaken a study to characterise them and seek features that might automatically separate them from uterine contractions. We recruited 36 healthy pregnant women to undergo…

Purpose: To propose a self-supervised deep learning-based compressed sensing MRI (DL-based CS-MRI) method named "Adaptive Self-Supervised Consistency Guided Diffusion Model (ASSCGD)" to accelerate data acquisition without requiring fully…

Medical image synthesis is an important topic for both clinical and research applications. Recently, diffusion models have become a leading approach in this area. Despite their strengths, many existing methods struggle with (1) limited…

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is an invaluable tool for clinical and research applications. Yet, variations in scanners and acquisition parameters cause inconsistencies in image contrast, hindering data comparability and reproducibility…

Diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (dMRI) is an emerging medical technique used for describing water diffusion in an organic tissue. Typically, rank-2 tensors quantify this diffusion. From this quantification, it is possible to calculate…

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a powerful, non-invasive diagnostic tool; however, its clinical applicability is constrained by prolonged acquisition times. Whilst present deep learning-based approaches have demonstrated potential in…

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is one of the most lethal cancers among the population. Screening for PDACs in dynamic contrast-enhanced CT is beneficial for early diagnosis. In this paper, we investigate the problem of automated…

Objective: Gadolinium-based contrast agents (GBCAs) are commonly employed with T1w MRI to enhance lesion visualization but are restricted in patients at risk of nephrogenic systemic fibrosis and variations in GBCA administration can…

Contrast agents in dynamic contrast enhanced magnetic resonance imaging allow to localize tumors and observe their contrast kinetics, which is essential for cancer characterization and respective treatment decision-making. However, contrast…

The classic metaphyseal lesion (CML) is a distinct injury that is highly specific for infant abuse. It commonly occurs in the distal tibia. To aid radiologists detect these subtle fractures, we need to develop a model that can flag abnormal…

Segmentation of brain structures from MRI is crucial for evaluating brain morphology, yet existing CNN and transformer-based methods struggle to delineate complex structures accurately. While current diffusion models have shown promise in…

Modelling the diffusion-relaxation magnetic resonance (MR) signal obtained from multi-parametric sequences has recently gained immense interest in the community due to new techniques significantly reducing data acquisition time. A preferred…

We propose an image synthesis mechanism for multi-sequence prostate MR images conditioned on text, to control lesion presence and sequence, as well as to generate paired bi-parametric images conditioned on images e.g. for generating…
