Ultrasound Imaging and Elastography

This study uses anisotropic MR elastography to show age-related declines in white matter mechanical properties, providing complementary information to diffusion tensor imaging.

This study examines the relationship between tibial nerve stiffness and maximum ankle dorsiflexion angle, finding that tibial nerve stiffness at specific angles significantly correlates with the maximum angle.

This paper introduces a new ultrasound beamforming algorithm that improves image contrast and resolution while maintaining computational efficiency.

The paper validates a 3D ultrasound strain measurement method for biaxial testing of excised myocardium, showing good agreement with optical camera measurements.

This paper tests the feasibility of using magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) to measure stiffness in thoracic aorta and aortic dissection phantoms to distinguish high-risk from stable dissections.

This paper develops HMINet, a transformer-based neural network for automated tumor and FUS lesion quantification using multi-frequency HMI and B-mode imaging, achieving high segmentation accuracy across multiple datasets.

This paper develops a novel MRE-based muscle force estimator that separates shear wave speed into active and passive components, improving offset parameter estimation without affecting slope parameter accuracy.

The paper validates an in situ titanium bead as a calibration reference for improving backscatter coefficient estimation in quantitative ultrasound by reducing bias from tissue attenuation and transmission loss.
