Sonographic-guided percutaneous fiducial marker implantation of hepatic malignancies for Cyberknife radiation therapy: Evaluation of safety and technical efficacy

open access: yesJournal of Medical Sciences, 2015
Background: CyberKnife radiation therapy has a widely used system in the treatment of extracranial lesions. Implanting gold fiducial markers around a tumor is an important procedure for the planning and aiming of CyberKnife radiation therapy.

Analysis on Four Derivative Waveforms of Photoplethysmogram (PPG) for Fiducial Point Detection

open access: yesFrontiers in Public Health, 2022
Fiducial points of photoplethysmogram (PPG), first derivative PPG (VPG), and second derivative PPG (APG) are essential in extracting numerous parameters to diagnose cardiovascular disease.

Computed tomography based evaluation of prostatic fiducial marker migration between the periods of insertion and simulation

open access: yesUrology Research and Practice, 2019
Objective: The aim of this study was to determine whether significant fiducial marker migration occurs between the periods of prostatic marker insertion and computed tomography (CT) performed for radiotherapy planning and if a waiting period is necessary.

MechaTag: A Mechanical Fiducial Marker and the Detection Algorithm [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Intelligent & Robotic Systems, 2021
AbstractFiducial markers are fundamental components of many computer vision systems that help, through their unique features (e.g., shape, color), a fast localization of spatial objects in unstructured scenarios. They find applications in many scientific and industrial fields, such as augmented reality, human-robot interaction, and robot navigation. In

Optimization of a newly defined target volume in fiducial marker-based dynamic tumor-tracking radiotherapy

open access: yesPhysics and Imaging in Radiation Oncology, 2017
Background and purpose: To optimize the selection of fiducial markers used to determine the “internal target volume for tracking” (ITVtracking) for fiducial marker-based dynamic tumor-tracking (DTT) radiotherapy for lung tumors, with four-dimensional 320-

A Skin-Conformal, Stretchable, and Breathable Fiducial Marker Patch for Surgical Navigation Systems

open access: yesMicromachines, 2020
Augmented reality (AR) surgical navigation systems have attracted considerable attention as they assist medical professionals in visualizing the location of ailments within the human body that are not readily seen with the naked eye.

Application of Ghost-DeblurGAN to Fiducial Marker Detection

open access: yes2022 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems (IROS), 2022
Feature extraction or localization based on the fiducial marker could fail due to motion blur in real-world robotic applications. To solve this problem, a lightweight generative adversarial network, named Ghost-DeblurGAN, for real-time motion deblurring is developed in this paper.

Prostate fiducial marker detection with the use of multi-parametric magnetic resonance imaging

open access: yesPhysics and Imaging in Radiation Oncology, 2017
Background and purpose: The introduction of a magnetic resonance (MR)-only workflow in radiotherapy requires that fiducial markers, used for position verification, can be detected on MR images.

Structural studies and functional engineering of NanX: an anhydro‐sialic acid transporter from Escherichia coli

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Biophysical characterisation shows that NanX, a membrane transport protein from the major facilitator superfamily (MFS), forms both monomers and dimers after purification. AlphaFold modelling and substrate docking provide information on residues likely involved in substrate recognition for NanX and another MFS member, NanT.

Tracking fiducial markers with discriminative correlation filters

open access: yesImage and Vision Computing, 2021
In the last few years, squared fiducial markers have become a popular and efficient tool to solve monocular localization and tracking problems at a very low cost. Nevertheless, marker detection is affected by noise and blur: small camera movements may cause image blurriness that prevents marker detection.
