Coregistered photoacoustic-ultrasound imaging applied to brachytherapy.

Brachytherapy is a form of radiation therapy commonly used in the treatment of prostate cancer wherein sustained radiation doses can be precisely targeted to the tumor area by the implantation of small radioactive seeds around the treatment area. Ultrasound is a popular imaging mode for seed implantation, but the seeds are difficult to distinguish from the tissue structure. In this work, we dem...

Frequency Smoothed Robust Capon Beamformer Applied to Medical Ultrasound Imaging

Recently, adaptive array beamforming has been applied to medical ultrasound imaging and achieved promising performance improvement. However, the current robust Capon beamformer with spatial smoothing (RCB-SS) is implemented in the time domain, which does not fully utilise the large bandwidth of ultrasound signals and spatial smoothing reduces the effective aperture. In this dissertation, we pro...

Maximum-likelihood approach to strain imaging using ultrasound

A maximum-likelihood (ML) strategy for strain estimation is presented as a framework for designing and evaluating bioelasticity imaging systems. Concepts from continuum mechanics, signal analysis, and acoustic scattering are combined to develop a mathematical model of the ultrasonic waveforms used to form strain images. The model includes three-dimensional (3-D) object motion described by affin...

Geometric reconstruction using tracked ultrasound strain imaging

The accurate identification of tumor margins during neurosurgery is a primary concern for the surgeon in order to maximize resection of malignant tissue while preserving normal function. The use of preoperative imaging for guidance is standard of care, but tumor margins are not always clear even when contrast agents are used, and so margins are often determined intraoperatively by visual and ta...

Tissue characterisation by ultrasound strain imaging

Real-Time Elastography (RTE) is a new imaging modality that monitors tissue strain during applied stress. The aim of this thesis was to validate if RTE was a reliable modality to reflect pathologically induced differences in elasticity or tissue hardness and to interrogate if assessment of elastic changes by RTE could be used as a diagnostic tool in clinical practice. Particularly, we focused o...
