3D freehand ultrasound imaging is becoming a widespread technique in medical examinations. This imaging technique produces a set of irregularly spaced B-scans. Reconstructing a regular grid from these B-scans is a challenging problem that enables the visualization and further analysis of the acquired data. This paper focuses on extending an...
Magnetic resonance imaging MRI has been used as a research tool in evaluation of the female pelvic floor for over a decade. Early studies were limited because of poor resolution and long scan times, which prohibited evaluation of pelvic floor descent. During the past few years, the advent of surface...
Schizophrenia is a severe mental disorder that affects nearly 1% of the general population and has long been a challenge for both clinicians and researchers in terms of treatment and etiology. More recently, evidence has amassed that suggests that schizophrenia is a brain disorder, and that some aspects of this...
Magnetic resonance diffusion tensor imaging DTI is a new technique that can be used to visualize and measure the diffusion of water in brain tissue; it is particularly useful for evaluating white matter abnormalities. In this paper, they review research studies that have applied DTI for the purpose of understanding...
The purpose of this paper was to obtain detailed white matter fiber tract anatomy of the whole brain with a diffusion tensor imaging technique that yields minimal distortion artifacts near large bone structures and air cavities as well as unprecedented high spatial resolution. To attain this goal, they employed line...
Powerful computer systems are about to revolutionize several areas of modern medicine. The most famous example is probably neurosurgery, where sophisticated computer algorithms are combined with modern imaging modalities and interventional scanners to enable very reliable surgery in delicate anatomical positions. So far, these high-tech setups are reserved to a...
