Photoacoustic tomography (PAT) is a rapidly-evolving medical imaging modality that combines optical absorption contrast with ultrasound imaging depth. One challenge in PAT is image reconstruction with inadequate acoustic signals due to limited sensor coverage or due to the density of the transducer array. Such cases call for solving an ill-posed inverse reconstruction problem. In this work, we use score-based diffusion models to solve the inverse problem of reconstructing an image from limited PAT measurements.

Large Vision Model (LVM) has recently demonstrated great potential for medical imaging tasks, potentially enabling image enhancement for sparse-view Cone-Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT), despite requiring a substantial amount of data for training. Meanwhile, Deep Image Prior (DIP) effectively guides an untrained neural network to generate high-quality CBCT images without any training data. How- ever, the original DIP method relies on a well-defined forward model and a large-capacity backbone network, which is no- toriously difficult to converge.

Accurate scatter estimation is important in quantitative SPECT for improving image contrast and accuracy. With a large number of photon histories, Monte-Carlo (MC) simulation can yield accurate scatter estimation, but is computationally expensive. Recent deep learning-based approaches can yield accurate scatter estimates quickly, yet full MC simulation is still required to generate scatter estimates as ground truth labels for all training data.

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a lifelong neurodevelopmental disorder with very high prevalence around the world. Research progress in the field of ASD facial analysis in pediatric patients has been hindered due to a lack of well-established baselines. In this paper, we propose the use of the Vision Transformer (ViT) for the computational analysis of pediatric ASD. The presented model, known as ViTASD, distills knowledge from large facial expression datasets and offers model structure transferability.

A common approach for enabling remote radiologists to view medical images is to provide them with secure access to a cloud instance using a web-based application. Such solutions must transcode input images or videos to low latency, lossless bit streams and make them available to remote users. The heart of the solution is the highly efficient, low-latency, and hardware-agnostic compression scheme. This poster surveys potential codecs for the low-latency, lossless compression of 16-bit RAW monochrome medical images and compares the compression ratio and encode time for each.

Accurate disease diagnosis requires objective assessment of clinical image quality. Automated image quality assessment (IQA) could enhance screening and diagnosis workflows. However, development of generalizable quality assessment tools requires large labeled clinical image datasets from different sites. Obtaining these datasets is often infeasible; and quality indicators may vary with acquisition settings due to domain shift. We introduce a minimally-supervised

- Log in to post comments
In ophthalmology and vision science applications, the process of registering a pair of fundus images, captured at different scales and viewing angles, is of paramount importance to support the diagnosis of diseases and routine eye examinations. Aiming at addressing the retina registration problem from the Deep Learning perspective, in this paper we introduce an end-to-end framework capable of learning the registration task in a fully unsupervised way.

- Log in to post comments
Accurately tracking large tissue motion over a sequence of ultrasound images is critically important to several clinical applications including, but not limited to, elastography, flow imaging, and ultrasound-guided motion compensation. However, tracking in vivo large tissue deformation in 3D is a challenging problem and requires further developments. In this study, we explore a novel tracking strategy that combines Bayesian inference with local polynomial fitting.

Existing physical model-based imaging methods for ultrasound elasticity reconstruction utilize fixed variational regularizers that may not be appropriate for the application of interest or may not capture complex spatial prior information about the underlying tissues. On the other hand, end-to-end learning-based methods count solely on the training data, not taking advantage of the governing physical laws of the imaging system.
