Modality independent elastography (MIE): a new approach to elasticity imaging

IEEE Transactions on Medical Imaging
Chad W Washington, Michael I Miga

Abstract

The correlation between tissue stiffness and health is an accepted form of organ disease assessment. As a result, there has been a significant amount of interest in developing methods to image elasticity parameters (i.e., elastography). The modality independent elastography (MIE) method combines a nonlinear optimization framework, computer models of soft-tissue deformation, and standard measures of image similarity to reconstruct elastic property distributions within soft tissue. In this paper, simulation results demonstrate successful elasticity image reconstructions in breast cross-sectional images acquired from magnetic resonance (MR) imaging. Results from phantom experiments illustrate its modality independence by reconstructing elasticity images of the same phantom in both MR and computed tomographic imaging units. Additional results regarding the performance of a new multigrid strategy to MIE and the implementation of a parallel architecture are also presented.

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule.
