In breast elastography, breast tissue usually undergoes large compression resulting in significant geometric and structural changes. This implies that breast elastography is associated with tissue nonlinear behavior. In this study, an elastography technique is presented and an inverse problem formulation is proposed to reconstruct parameters characterizing tissue hyperelasticity. Such parameter...
This paper presents a new 2D holographic microwave imaging array (HMIA) technique for medical imaging applications. The HMIA technique has been applied to early stage breast cancer detection and brain stroke detection. Computer models are developed to demonstrate the feasibility of detecting and localizing small brain strokes within a 2D numerical head model and breast tumours within a 3D numer...
As a breast-imaging technique, digital breast tomosynthesis has great potential to improve the diagnosis of early breast cancer over mammography. Ray-tracing-based reconstruction algorithms, such as ray-tracing back projection, maximum-likelihood expectation maximization (MLEM), ordered-subset MLEM (OS-MLEM), and simultaneous algebraic reconstruction technique (SART), have been developed as rec...
We have developed a novel scanner for breast cancer detection, integrating both thermoacoustic and photoacoustic techniques to achieve dual contrast (microwave and light absorption) imaging. This scanner is nonionizing, low cost, and can potentially provide high-resolution, dual modality three-dimensional images of the breast. The scanner uses front instead of side breast compression and dry in...
Purpose: The purpose of the current work was experimental investigations of the mean breast dose and volume dose distributions with and without adaptive filtration. Adaptive filtration of the x-ray beam is used in dedicated breast CT to reduce dynamic range requirements on the detector, and to improve image quality. The adaptive filter has a predetermined shape, it is placed after the x-ray sou...
The Sussex Mk4 Electrical Impedance Mammography (EIM) system is a novel instrument, designed for the detection of early breast cancer, based upon Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT). Many innovations in the field have been incorporated in the design improving both signal distribution and response. This paper investigates the behaviour of the contactless patient-electrode interface. The interf...
To increase the temperature contrast in thermal images, the characteristics of the electrical conductivity and thermal imaging modalities can be combined. In this experimental study, it is objected to observe whether the temperature contrast created by the tumor tissue can be improved just due to the current application within medical safety limits. Various thermal breast phantoms are developed...
The feasibility for speed of sound dispersion (SOSD) imaging was investigated here. A through transmission new method for measuring the SOSD was utilized. With this method a long pulse comprising of two frequencies one being the double of the other is transmitted through the object and detected on its other side. SOSD projection images were obtained by scanning objects immersed in water using a...
Mammogram registration can help avoid biopsies and help follow-up analysis. Mammogram registration is a challenge because of the compressibility of the breast tissue. We used the CIRS breast phantom image to study the registration methodology. The phantom images were acquired in Fused Full Field Digital Mammogram and Ultrasound (FFDMUS) framework. The acquired images were registered using our p...
