Ultrasound (US) imaging for medical purposes has been increasing in popularity over the
years. The US technology has some valuable strengths, such as it is harmless, very cheap …

Purpose Compensation for respiratory motion is important during abdominal cancer
treatments. In this work we report the results of the 2015 MICCAI Challenge on Liver …

Objective A new computer tool is proposed to distinguish between focal nodular hyperplasia
(FNH) and an inflammatory hepatocellular adenoma (I-HCA) using contrast-enhanced …

Purpose Effectiveness of image-guided radiation therapy with precise dose delivery
depends highly on accurate target localization, which may involve motion during treatment …

Radiation force–based elasticity imaging is currently being investigated as a possible
diagnostic modality for a number of clinical tasks, including liver fibrosis staging and the …

Background Radiotherapy to tumors in the abdomen is challenging because of the
significant organ movement and tissue deformation caused by respiration. Purpose A motion …

Speckle tracking is the most prominent technique used to estimate the regional movement of
the heart based on echocardiograms. In this study, we propose an optimised-based block …

Contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) is a non-invasive imaging technique extensively
used for blood perfusion imaging of various organs. This modality is based on the acoustic …

Purpose Physiological motion and partial volume effect (PVE) significantly degrade the
quality of cardiac positron emission tomography (PET) images in the fast-beating hearts of …

A method is proposed that provides estimates of the spatial variation of elastic moduli using
local displacements of the elastic body. A central issue of elastography imaging has been …
