Dynamic contact-free continuous-wave diffuse optical tomography system for the detection of vascular dynamics within the foot
We present a dynamic contact-free continuous-wave diffuse optical tomography system for the detection and monitoring of peripheral arterial disease (PAD) in the foot. Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD) is the narrowing of the functional area of the artery generally due to atherosclerosis. It affects between 8-12 million people in the United States and if untreated this can lead to ulceration, ga...
متن کاملImaging of vascular dynamics within the foot using dynamic diffuse optical tomography to diagnose peripheral arterial disease
Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD) is the narrowing of the functional area of the artery generally due to atherosclerosis. It affects between 8-12 million people in the United States and if untreated this can lead to ulceration, gangrene and ultimately amputation. The current diagnostic method for PAD is the ankle-brachial index (ABI). The ABI is a ratio of the patient’s systolic blood pressure ...

متن کاملAn Efficient Method for Model Reduction in Diffuse Optical Tomography
We present an efficient method for the reduction of model equations in the linearized diffuse optical tomography (DOT) problem. We first implement the maximum a posteriori (MAP) estimator and Tikhonov regularization, which are based on applying preconditioners to linear perturbation equations. For model reduction, the precondition is split into two parts: the principal components are consid...
متن کاملMulti-modality compressed breast imaging
ABSTRACT Measurement of breast tissue response to external stimulation has the potential to unveil additional dynamic biomarkers of disease states. Recently tumor contrast generated by breathing-gas induced vascular changes has been demonstrated using both BOLD imaging [1] and MRIguided near infrared diffuse optical tomography [2]. At the same time, in the biomedical optics community, temporall...
