Segmentation of Brain MRI in Young Children

Rationale and Objectives This article deals with an automatic tissue segmentation of brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in young children. Materials and Methods We examine the suitability of...

Resident as a Teacher

The adage “To teach is to learn twice” (Joseph Joubert, 1754–1824) is an often-quoted phrase that captures the essence of why teaching is considered a powerful method of learning. Although resident...

Registering Histologic and MR Images of Prostate for Image-based Cancer Detection

Rationale and Objectives Needle biopsy is currently the only way to confirm prostate cancer. To increase prostate cancer diagnostic rate, needles are expected to be deployed at suspicious cancer l...

Real-Time Tracking and Shape Analysis of Atrial Septal Defects in 3D Echocardiography

Rationale and Objectives Real-time cardiac ultrasound (US) allows monitoring the heart motion during intracardiac beating heart procedures. Our application assists pediatric atrial septal defect (...

Planning and Intraoperative Visualization of Liver Catheterizations

Rationale and Objectives Two-dimensional and three-dimensional (2D-3D) registration for angiographic liver interventions is an unsolved problem mainly because of two reasons. First, a suitable pro...

Physiome-Model–Based State-Space Framework for Cardiac Deformation Recovery

Rationale and Objectives To more reliably recover cardiac information from noise-corrupted, patient-specific measurements, it is essential to employ meaningful constraining models and adopt approp...

Multiscale Optimization of the Probe Placement for Radiofrequency Ablation

Rationale and Objectives We present a model for the optimal placement of mono- and bipolar probes in radiofrequency (RF) ablation. The model is based on a system of partial differential equations ...

Katie at seven

Katie is 7 and a stellar graduate of the first grade. Her teacher said she was above average. Like Lake Wobegon, maybe all of the children are above average. To Diana and me, her doting grandparent...

Dynamic MR Perfusion Measurements Before and After TIPS in Cirrhotic Patients With Refractory Ascites

Rationale and Objectives We sought to assess changes in liver perfusion parameters induced by transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) creation in cirrhotic patients with refractory as...

An Analysis of Early Studies Released by the Lung Imaging Database Consortium (LIDC)

Rationale and Objectives To analyze radiologist lung nodule segmentations in the Lung Imaging Database Consortium (LIDC) database and to apply statistical tools to generate estimates of ground tru...
