High-contrast imaging provided by a coronagraph is critical for the direction imaging of the Earth-like planet orbiting its bright parent star. A major limitation for such direct imaging is the speckle noise that is induced from the…
Contact-free vital sign monitoring, which uses wireless signals for recognizing human vital signs (i.e, breath and heartbeat), is an attractive solution to health and security. However, the subject's body movement and the change in actual…
The analysis of electrical impulse phenomena in cardiac muscle tissue is important for the diagnosis of heart rhythm disorders and other cardiac pathophysiology. Cardiac mapping techniques acquire local temporal measurements and combine…
Multi-channel photoplethysmography (PPG) sensors have found widespread adoption in wearable devices for monitoring cardiac health. Channels thereby serve different functions -- whereas green is commonly used for metrics such as heart rate…
Cardiomagnetometry is a growing field of noninvasive medical diagnostics that has triggered a need for affordable high-sensitivity magnetometers. Optical pumping magnetometers are promising candidates satisfying that need since it was…
Today's diagnostics include devices such as pulse oximeters, blood pressure monitors, and temperature measurements. These devices provide vital information to medical personnel when making treatment decisions. Drawing inspiration from the…
This work addresses the inverse problem of electrocardiography from a new perspective, by combining electrical and mechanical measurements. Our strategy relies on the defini-tion of a model of the electromechanical contraction which is…
We present a novel approach for imaging the beating embryonic heart, based on combining two independent imaging channels to capture the full spatio-temporal information of the moving 3D structure. High-resolution, optically-sectioned image…
Intraoperative fluorescent cardiac imaging enables quality control following coronary bypass grafting surgery. We can estimate local quantitative indicators, such as cardiac perfusion, by tracking local feature points. However, heart motion…
In nature, excitable reaction-diffusion systems found in diverse settings (e.g. chemical reactions, metal rust, yeast, amoeba, heart, brain) generate geometrically similar macroscopic waves(1,2). For the heart and brain, the spatiotemporal…
Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) is the gold standard for assessing cardiac function, but individual cardiac cycles complicate automatic temporal comparison or sub-phase analysis. Accurate cardiac keyframe detection can eliminate…
Photoplethysmography (PPG) is a method of detecting variation in blood volume commonly through contact with the skin and involving the usage of one or multiple sensors. PPG is typically used in health-related fields and one of its most…
Goal: A new method for heart rate monitoring using photoplethysmography (PPG) during physical activities is proposed. Methods: It jointly estimates spectra of PPG signals and simultaneous acceleration signals, utilizing the multiple…
Video-based heart and respiratory rate measurements using facial videos are more useful and user-friendly than traditional contact-based sensors. However, most of the current deep learning approaches require ground-truth pulse and…
A high contrast imaging technique based on an optical vortex coronagraph (OVC) is used to measure the spatial phase profile induced by an air plasma generated by a femtosecond laser pulse. The sensitivity of the OVC method significantly…
The ability to map left ventricle (LV) myocardial motion using computed tomography angiography (CTA) is essential to diagnosing cardiovascular conditions and guiding interventional procedures. Due to their inherent locality, conventional…
Recovering the 3D motion of the heart from cine cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging enables the assessment of regional myocardial function and is important for understanding and analyzing cardiovascular disease. However, 3D cardiac…
Objective- Heart rate monitoring using wrist type Photoplethysmographic (PPG) signals is getting popularity because of construction simplicity and low cost of wearable devices. The task becomes very difficult due to the presence of various…
Cardiac parametric mapping is useful for evaluating cardiac fibrosis and edema. Parametric mapping relies on single-shot heartbeat-by-heartbeat imaging, which is susceptible to intra-shot motion during the imaging window. However, reducing…
Continuous ambulatory monitoring of peripheral vascular perfusion could enable earlier detection of vascular dysfunction in individuals with diabetes mellitus and more timely management of cardiovascular disease. Clinical imaging modalities…
