In this paper, we review novel techniques in the emerging field of spatiotemporal 4D PET imaging. We will discuss existing limitations in conventional dynamic PET imaging which involves independent reconstruction of dynamic PET datasets. Various approaches that seek to attempt some or all of these limitations are reviewed in this work, including techniques that utilize iterative temporal smooth...

Reconstruction the spectral data of color samples using conventional color devices such as a digital camera or scanner is always of interest. Nowadays, multispectral imaging has introduced a feasible method to estimate the spectral reflectance of the images utilizing more than three-channel imaging. The goal of this study is to spectrally characterize a color scanner using a set of conventional...

Myelitis and optic neuritis are prototypic clinical presentations of both multiple sclerosis and neuromyelitis optica. Once considered a subtype of multiple sclerosis, neuromyelitis optica, is now known to have a discrete pathogenesis in which antibodies to the water channel, aquaporin 4, play a critical role. Timely differentiation of neuromyelitis optica from MS is imperative, determining bot...

This presentation discusses the optimum magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) sequence for lung cancer assessment in a clinical setting, and the sensitivity and specificity of MRI (alone and in combination with diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI)-MR) compared with those of computed tomography (CT) and fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography (PET) for lung cancer staging. The role of perfusion s...

in this regards first of all cross sectional anatomy of salivary glands and different diagnostic modalities such as ultrasound, cat scan, conventional mri and nuclear studies will be discussed. advanced mri modality such as dce (dynamic susceptibility enhanced) imaging will be introduced. then various pathologies of salivary glands including infectious, benign and malignant neoplastic processes...

This thesis investigates the calibration of cameras that do not conform to the standard pinhole-plus-distortion camera model. The ability to calibrate such camera systems is essential for the development of new, non-conventional, camera types. The major contributions of the thesis are the development of calibration algorithms for both central catadioptric cameras and non-central flexible mirror...

purpose: suitable magnetic resonance imaging (mri) techniques from conventional to new devices can help physicians in diagnosis and follow up of multiple sclerosis (ms) patients. the aim of present research was to compare effectiveness of fluid attenuation inversion recovery (flair) sequence of conventional mri and diffuse weighted imaging (dwi) sequence as a new technique in detection of brain...

Introduction: Accurate staging plays an important role in management of patients with prostate cancer especially in high-risk group. Today, [68Ga]Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT should be considered as the preferred imaging tool for treatment planning and initial staging of the disease. Methods: A total number of 628 patients with prostate cancer referred to...
