Digital image plays a vital role in the early detection of cancers, such as prostate cancer, breast cancer, lungs cancer, cervical cancer. Ultrasound imaging method is also suitable for early detection of the abnormality of fetus. The…

Coherent multi-transducer ultrasound (CoMTUS) creates an extended effective aperture through the coherent combination of multiple arrays, which results in images with enhanced resolution, extended field-of-view, and higher sensitivity. The…

While laparoscopic liver resection is less prone to complications and maintains patient outcomes compared to traditional open surgery, its complexity hinders widespread adoption due to challenges in representing the liver's internal…

Many minimally invasive procedures, such as core needle biopsy of focal liver lesions, nerve blocks, and fetal and vascular interventions, are typically performed under ultrasound guidance, which provides real-time, high-resolution…

Diagnostic imaging plays a critical role in healthcare, serving as a fundamental asset for timely diagnosis, disease staging and management as well as for treatment choice, planning, guidance, and follow-up. Among the diagnostic imaging…

Ultrasound is well-established as an imaging modality for diagnostic and interventional purposes. However, the image quality varies with operator skills as acquiring and interpreting ultrasound images requires extensive training due to the…

Urinary Incontinence (UI) is a widespread medical condition that affects one person from every three or four Americans. Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) is a non-invasive under-study method for bladder filling sensation that can enhance…

Ultrasound technology enables safe, non-invasive imaging of dynamic tissue behavior, making it a valuable tool in medicine, biomechanics, and sports science. However, accurately tracking tissue motion in B-mode ultrasound remains…

Abdominal ultrasound imaging has been widely used to assist in the diagnosis and treatment of various abdominal organs. In order to shorten the examination time and reduce the cognitive burden on the sonographers, we present a…

Previous work has shown the potential of deep learning to predict renal obstruction using kidney ultrasound images. However, these image-based classifiers have been trained with the goal of single-visit inference in mind. We compare methods…

Over the past decades, the incidence of thyroid cancer has been increasing globally. Accurate and early diagnosis allows timely treatment and helps to avoid over-diagnosis. Clinically, a nodule is commonly evaluated from both transverse and…

Ultrasound images are one of the most widely used techniques in clinical settings to analyze and detect different organs for study or diagnoses of diseases. The dependence on subjective opinions of experts such as radiologists calls for an…

An alternative approach to ultrasound computed tomography (USCT) for medical imaging is proposed, with the intent to (i) shorten acquisition time for devices with a large number of emitters, (ii) eliminate the calibration step, and (iii)…

Transrectal biopsies under 2D ultrasound (US) control are the current clinical standard for prostate cancer diagnosis. The isoechogenic nature of prostate carcinoma makes it necessary to sample the gland systematically, resulting in a low…

Recently, a growing interest has been seen in deep learning-based semantic segmentation. UNet, which is one of deep learning networks with an encoder-decoder architecture, is widely used in medical image segmentation. Combining multi-scale…

Accurate segmentation of anatomical structures in ultrasound (US) images, particularly small ones, is challenging due to noise and variability in imaging conditions (e.g., probe position, patient anatomy, tissue characteristics and…

Currently, diagnostic medicine uses a multitude of tools ranging from ionising radiation to histology analysis. With advances in piezoelectric crystal technology, high-frequency ultrasound imaging has developed to achieve comparatively high…

We introduce SonicSense, a holistic design of hardware and software to enable rich robot object perception through in-hand acoustic vibration sensing. While previous studies have shown promising results with acoustic sensing for object…

Perfusion by the microcirculation is key to the development, maintenance and pathology of tissue. Its measurement with high spatiotemporal resolution is consequently valuable but remains a challenge in deep tissue. Ultrasound Localization…

Transcranial ultrasound imaging is limited by high skull absorption, limiting vascular imaging to only the largest vessels. Traditional clutter filters struggle with low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) ultrasound datasets, where blood and…
