Due to the complexity of the human body and its neuromuscular stabilization, it has been challenging to efficiently and accurately predict human motion and capture posture while being driven. Existing simple models of the seated human body…
The need for affordable and appropriate medical technologies for developing countries continue to rise as challenges such as inadequate energy supply, limited technical expertise and poor infrastructure persists. Low-field MRI is a…
Recent advances in imaging techniques have enabled us to visualize lung tumors or nodules in early-stage cancer. However, the positions of nodules can change because of intraoperative lung deflation, and the modeling of…
Echocardiography (echo) plays an indispensable role in the clinical practice of heart diseases. However, ultrasound imaging typically provides only two-dimensional (2D) cross-sectional images from a few specific views, making it challenging…
Determining the brain perfusion is an important task for the diagnosis and treatment of vascular diseases such as occlusions and intracerebral haemorrhage. Even after successful diagnosis and treatment, there is a high risk of restenosis or…
The Pulmonary Function Test (PFT) is an widely utilized and rigorous classification test for lung function evaluation, serving as a comprehensive tool for lung diagnosis. Meanwhile, Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT) is a rapidly…
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a powerful imaging modality that revolutionizes medicine and biology. The imaging speed of high-dimensional MRI is often limited, which constrains its practical utility. Recently, low-rank tensor models…
Portable ultra-low field MRI (ULF-MRI) systems operated in unshielded environments are susceptible to electromagnetic interference (EMI). Subject presence in the imaging region will lead to substantial noise increases, yet the dominant…
Video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) is a minimally invasive surgical technique for the diagnosis and treatment of early-stage lung cancer. During VATS, large lung deformation occurs as a result of a change of patient position and a…
High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) can be used to achieve a local temperature increase deep inside the human body in a non-invasive way. MRI guidance of the procedure allows in situ target definition. In addition, MRI can be used to…
Electromagnetic navigation systems (eMNS) are increasingly used in minimally invasive procedures such as endovascular interventions and targeted drug delivery due to their ability to generate fast and precise magnetic fields. In this paper,…
Robotic ultrasound (US) imaging has been seen as a promising solution to overcome the limitations of free-hand US examinations, i.e., inter-operator variability. However, the fact that robotic US systems cannot react to subject movements…
Lung ultrasound imaging is reaching growing interest from the scientific community. On one side, thanks to its harmlessness and high descriptive power, this kind of diagnostic imaging has been largely adopted in sensitive applications, like…
We implemented the inverse design method to build a thin near-field lens that could produce a desired subwavelength focus by manipulating the near fields of a magnetic dipole source. The flat near-field lens represented by an artificial…
Ultrasonography is a vital component of modern clinical care, with handheld probes routinely used for diagnostic imaging and procedural guidance. However, handheld ultrasound imaging is limited by factors such as the partial-cross-sectional…
Recent progress in nanofabrication and additive manufacturing have facilitated the building of nanometer-scale three-dimensional structures, that promise to lead to an emergence of new functionalities within a number of fields, compared to…
Light-field microscopy represents a promising solution for microscopic volumetric imaging, thanks to its capability to encode information on multiple planes in a single acquisition. This is achieved through its peculiar simultaneous capture…
High-resolution imaging of supermassive black holes is now possible, with new applications to testing general relativity and horizon-scale accretion and relativistic jet formation processes. Over the coming decade, the EHT will propose to…
This study focuses on the application of a specific subfield of artificial intelligence referred to as computer vision in the analysis of 2-dimensional lung x-ray images for the assisted medical diagnosis of ordinary pneumonia. A…
Three-dimensional (3D) ultrasound imaging can overcome the limitations of conventional two dimensional (2D) ultrasound imaging in structural observation and measurement. However, conducting volumetric ultrasound imaging for large-sized…
