I present the theory of interferometric imaging (II). Interferometric imaging is any algorithm that images crosscorrelated data for the reflectivity or source distribution. As examples, I show that II can image arbitrary reflectivity distributions by migrating ghost reflections in passive seismic data, generalize the receiver-function imaging method used by seismologists, and migrate free-surfa...

The combination of intravascular ultrasound and intravascular photoacoustic imaging has been proposed for improving the diagnosis of arterial diseases. We describe a novel scan-head design for implementing such multimodality imaging. The proposed device has the potential to achieve a sufficiently small size for clinical intravascular applications. The design aims for efficient image data acquis...

Background: Mechanical occlusion of the Left atrial appendage (LAA) using a purpose-built device has emerged as an effective prophylactic treatment in patients with atrial fibrillation at risk of stroke and a contraindication for anticoagulation. A crucial step in procedural planning is the choice of the device size. This is currently based on the manual analysis of the “Device Landing Zone” fr...

R ecently there’s been a push among some of our clients to start bringing 3d imaging systems in-house. In the majority of cases the client wants my company to provide some form of training to help them get off on the right foot. Although we are in the consulting business, training is a different animal. We’ve worked for years, continuously refining our processes and tools, investing in R&D and ...

Lensless ghost imaging (LGI) with thermal light requires an equal length between the test and reference arms. When this condition is not met, the image becomes blurred. Here we propose an experimental scheme of LGI where the lengths of the two arms are not equal. Our experiment shows that when a glass rod is inserted into a longer arm, the clear image can be formed in the intensity correlation ...

A new technique for high fidelity three-dimensional imaging of atomic structure with gamma-ray holography is demonstrated. A complex hologram was constructed from holograms recorded for different values of the nuclear scattering amplitude on both sides of the (57)Fe Mössbauer resonance. The holographic reconstruction was applied to this complex hologram resulting in a twin-image-free image of t...

conclusion osem3d may provide better image quality and higher contrast than other methods for small animal imaging with the new myocardial imaging agent, [18f] fptp. results the location and size of myocardial infarction on pet images correlated closely with that observed with ttc staining. among the four reconstruction methods, osem3d provided the best assessment of infarct size (r2 = 0.994, p...

Advancements in computers, prototyping, and imaging, especially over the last 10 years, have permitted the adoption of three-dimensional imaging protocols in the health care field. In this article, the authors present an integrated simulation system for craniofacial surgical planning and treatment. Image fusion technology, which involves combining different imaging modalities, was utilized to c...

Today’s ultrasound imaging systems produce better images and display more information than it was possible to display 30 years ago. Similarly, performance criteria for ultrasound imaging systems and the tools used to make these measurements have evolved, and have become more complex. This presentation will informally discuss a few examples of the evolution of ultrasound imaging systems and perf...
