Notes on the two main routes of period doubling and 1/2 order subharmonic oscillations in a bubble oscillator [PDF]
Period doubling route to chaos is one of the well-known characteristics of nonlinear oscillators. A bubble is a highly nonlinear oscillator that exists in various phenomena and applications ranging from material science and underwater acoustics to medical ultrasound.

Update on Intravascular Ultrasound
Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) has moved from being predominately a research tool at tertiary interventional centers to a clinical instrument used routinely to assess interventional success and resolve diagnostic challenges. Advances in instrumentation technology, along with emerging clinical data, have contributed to the wider application of IVUS ...

Geo-UNet: A Geometrically Constrained Neural Framework for Clinical-Grade Lumen Segmentation in Intravascular Ultrasound [PDF]
Precisely estimating lumen boundaries in intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) is needed for sizing interventional stents to treat deep vein thrombosis (DVT). Unfortunately, current segmentation networks like the UNet lack the precision needed for clinical adoption in IVUS workflows.

Classifier-guided registration of coronary CT angiography and intravascular ultrasound [PDF]
Coronary CT angiography (CCTA) and intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) provide complementary information for coronary artery disease assessment, making their registration valuable for comprehensive analysis. However, existing registration methods require manual interaction or extensive segmentations, limiting their practical application.

Bifurcation Identification for Ultrasound-driven Robotic Cannulation [PDF]
In trauma and critical care settings, rapid and precise intravascular access is key to patients' survival. Our research aims at ensuring this access, even when skilled medical personnel are not readily available. Vessel bifurcations are anatomical landmarks that can guide the safe placement of catheters or needles during medical procedures.

Magnetic Continuum Robot for Intelligent Manipulation in Medical Applications
ABSTRACT Magnetic continuum robots (MCRs) have garnered substantial attention as a new class of flexible robotic systems capable of navigating complex and confined spaces with remarkable dexterity. By combining continuous, deformable structures with remotely applied magnetic fields, MCRs achieve contactless, remote manipulation, making them well‐suited
