Tissue deformation in ultrasound (US) imaging leads to geometrical errors when measuring tissues due to the pressure exerted by probes. Such deformation has an even larger effect on 3D US volumes as the correct compounding is limited by the…
We tackle here the problem of multimodal image non-rigid registration, which is of prime importance in remote sensing and medical imaging. The difficulties encountered by classical registration approaches include feature design and slow…
Cardiac and lung ultrasound are technically demanding because operators must identify patient-specific intercostal acoustic windows and then navigate between standard views by adjusting probe position, rotation, and force across different…
Objective: Deformable image registration is a fundamental problem in medical image analysis, with applications such as longitudinal studies, population modeling, and atlas based image segmentation. Registration is often phrased as an…
This paper presents a deep-learning model for deformable registration of ultrasound images at online rates, which we call U-RAFT. As its name suggests, U-RAFT is based on RAFT, a convolutional neural network for estimating optical flow.…
Computer-assisted prostate biopsies became a very active research area during the last years. Prostate tracking makes it possi- ble to overcome several drawbacks of the current standard transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) biopsy procedure, namely…
This work proposed a novel deep registration pipeline for 3D CT and 2D U/S kidney scans of free breathing, which consists of a feature network, and a 3D-2D CNN-based registration network. The feature network has handcraft texture feature…
With the substantial diversity in population demographics, such as differences in age and body composition, the volumetric morphology of pancreas varies greatly, resulting in distinctive variations in shape and appearance. Such variations…
This paper presents a method to register a preoperative CT volume to a sparse set of intraoperative US slices. In the context of percutaneous renal puncture, the aim is to transfer a planning information to an intraoperative coordinate…
Objective: The objective of this work is an attempt towards non-contact freehand 3D ultrasound imaging with minimal complexity added to the existing point of care ultrasound (POCUS) systems. Methods: This study proposes a novel approach of…
Femoral artery access is essential for numerous clinical procedures, including diagnostic angiography, therapeutic catheterization, and emergency interventions. Despite its critical role, successful vascular access remains challenging due…
The MitraClip is the most widely percutaneous treatment for mitral regurgitation, typically performed under the real-time guidance of 3D transesophagel echocardiography (TEE). However, artifacts and low image contrast in echocardiography…
We present USLR, a computational framework for longitudinal registration of brain MRI scans to estimate nonlinear image trajectories that are smooth across time, unbiased to any timepoint, and robust to imaging artefacts. It operates on the…
Point-cloud data acquired using a terrestrial laser scanner (TLS) play an important role in digital forestry research. Multiple scans are generally used to overcome occlusion effects and obtain complete tree structural information. However,…
In lung radiotherapy, the primary objective is to optimize treatment outcomes by minimizing exposure to healthy tissues while delivering the prescribed dose to the target volume. The challenge lies in accounting for lung tissue motion due…
This paper presents a fully automatic and end-to-end optimised airway segmentation method for thoracic computed tomography, based on the U-Net architecture. We use a simple and low-memory 3D U-Net as backbone, which allows the method to…
In this work, we propose computational models and algorithms for point cloud registration with non-rigid transformation. First, point clouds sampled from manifolds originally embedded in some Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^D$ are transformed…
Registration of longitudinal optical coherence tomography (OCT) images assists disease monitoring and is essential in image fusion applications. Mouse retinal OCT images are often collected for longitudinal study of eye disease models such…
Measuring cross-sectional areas in ultrasound images is a standard tool to evaluate disease progress or treatment response. Often addressed today with supervised deep-learning segmentation approaches, existing solutions highly depend upon…
In adaptive radiotherapy, deformable image registration is often conducted between the planning CT and treatment CT (or cone beam CT) to generate a deformation vector field (DVF) for dose accumulation and contour propagation. The auto…
