A Numerical Alternative to MR Thermometry for Safety Validation of Multi‐Channel RF Transmit Coils

open access: yesMagnetic Resonance in Medicine, Volume 96, Issue 1, Page 469-484, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Purpose This study proposes a numerical technique to estimate peak local specific absorption rate (SAR) uncertainty of multi‐channel RF coils during the process of safety validation as an alternative to experimental temperature and electric‐field measurements, and demonstrates its use to enable human studies at 10.5 T.

Enhanced ICMR amplifier for high CMRR biopotential recordings

open access: yes2019 41st Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society (EMBC), 2019
This paper presents an integrated biopotential preamplifier architecture targeting applications that simultaneously require high common-mode rejection ratio (CMRR), low noise, high input common-mode range (ICMR), and current-efficiency (low Noise Efficiency Factor or NEF).

Timing Is Everything: How Subtle Timing Changes in MRI Echo Planar Imaging Can Significantly Alter Mechanical Vibrations and Sound Level

open access: yesMagnetic Resonance in Medicine, Volume 95, Issue 6, Page 3116-3130, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Purpose Echo‐Planar Imaging (EPI) is central to fMRI, diffusion MRI, and many dynamic clinical applications, yet rapid gradient switching induces strong mechanical vibrations, generates acoustic noise, and contributes to ghosting artifacts—effects that intensify at ultra‐high fields.

Comparison of ultrasensitive and mass spectrometry quantification of blood-based amyloid biomarkers for Alzheimer’s disease diagnosis in a memory clinic cohort

open access: yesAlzheimer’s Research & Therapy, 2023
Background Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a complex neurodegenerative disorder with β-amyloid pathology as a key underlying process. The relevance of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and brain imaging biomarkers is validated in clinical practice for early ...

Stabilization of a Fabry-Perot interferometer using a suspension-point interferometer

open access: yes, 2004
A suspension-point interferometer (SPI) is an auxiliary interferometer for active vibration isolation, implemented at the suspension points of the mirrors of an interferometric gravitational wave detector.

Current-Efficient Preamplifier Architecture for CMRR Sensitive Neural Recording Applications

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Biomedical Circuits and Systems, 2018
There are neural recording applications in which the amplitude of common-mode interfering signals is several orders of magnitude higher than the amplitude of the signals of interest. This challenging situation for neural amplifiers occurs, among other applications, in neural recordings of weakly electric fish or nerve activity recordings made with cuff

A Tree-Based Architecture for High-Performance Ultra-Low-Voltage Amplifiers

open access: yesJournal of Low Power Electronics and Applications, 2022
In this paper, we introduce a novel tree-based architecture which allows the implementation of Ultra-Low-Voltage (ULV) amplifiers. The architecture exploits a body-driven input stage to guarantee a rail-to-rail input common mode range and body-diode ...

Investigating Emotional Reactivity in Experienced Users of Psychedelics: A Cross‐Sectional fMRI Study

open access: yesHuman Brain Mapping, Volume 47, Issue 5, 1 April 2026.
This cross‐sectional fMRI study compared experienced psychedelic users and matched nonusers on behavioral and neural responses to emotional facial expressions. Findings reveal neurofunctional differences between groups in emotional reactivity, highlighting both similarities and important distinctions in the long‐term effects of naturalistic versus ...

An Investigative Redesign of the ECG and EMG Signal Conditioning Circuits for Two-fault Tolerance and Circuit Improvement [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
An investigation was undertaken to make the elctrocardiography (ECG) and the electromyography (EMG) signal conditioning circuits two-fault tolerant and to update the circuitry.
