Motion-Corrected Reconstruction in Cone-Beam Computed Tomography for Knees under Weight-Bearing Condition
Abstract
Medical imaging plays an important role in diagnosis and grading of knee conditions such as osteoarthritis. In current clinical practice, 2-D radiography is regularly applied u...
Evaluation Methods for Stereopsis Performance
Abstract
Stereopsis is one mechanism of visual depth perception, which gains 3D information from the displaced images of both eyes. Depth is encoded by disparity, the offset between the corresponding projections of one point in both retinas. Play...
Hybrid RGB/Time-of-Flight Sensors in Minimally Invasive Surgery
Abstract
Nowadays, minimally invasive surgery is an essential part of medical interventions. In a typical clinical workflow, procedures are planned preoperatively with 3-dimensional (3-D) computed tomography (CT) data and guid...
Region-of-Interest Imaging with C-arm Computed Tomography
Abstract
C-arm based flat-detector computed tomography (FDCT) is a promising approach for neurovascular diagnosis and intervention since it facilitates proper analysis of surgical implants and intra-procedural guidance. In the majority...
Design Considerations and Application Examples for Embedded Classification Systems
Abstract
Wearable athlete support systems are a popular technology for performance enhancement in sports. The complex signal and data analysis on these systems is often tackled with pattern recognition techniqu...
Analysis of speech of people with Parkinson's disease
Abstract
The analysis of speech of people with Parkinson's disease is an interesting and highly relevant topic that has been addressed in the research community during several years.There are important contributions of this topic consideri...
Reconstruction Techniques for Dynamic Radial MRI
Abstract
Today, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is an essential clinical imaging modality and routinely used for orthopedic, neurological, cardiovascular, and oncological diagnosis. The relatively long scan times lead to two limitations in onc...
Motion Corrected Quantitative Imaging in Multimodal Emission Tomography
Abstract
Nuclear medicine has been using single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) for several decades in order to diagnose and enable the treatment of patients for various clinical applications. Traditionally, r...
Dynamic Interventional Perfusion Imaging: Reconstruction Algorithms and Clinical Evaluation
Abstract
Acute ischaemic stroke is a major cause for death and disabilities with increasing prevalence in aging societies. Novel interventional stroke treatment procedures have the potential to improve...
High Performance Iterative X-Ray CT with Application in 3-D Mammography and Interventional C-arm Imaging Systems
Abstract
Medical image reconstruction is a key component for a broad range of medical imaging technologies. For classical Computed Tomography systems the amount of measured signals...
