Optical signatures of radiofrequency ablation in biological tissues

Scientific Reports, 2021
Accurate monitoring of treatment is crucial in minimally-invasive radiofrequency ablation in oncology and cardiovascular disease. We investigated alterations in optical properties of ex-vivo bovine tissues of the liver, heart, muscle, and brain ...

Matrix 3D ultrasound-assisted thyroid nodule volume estimation and radiofrequency ablation: a phantom study

European Radiology Experimental, 2021
Background Two-dimensional (2D) ultrasound is well established for thyroid nodule assessment and treatment guidance. However, it is hampered by a limited field of view and observer variability that may lead to inaccurate nodule classification and ...

The influence of electrocardiogram-gated computed tomography reconstruction into 8 or 10 cardiac phases on cardiac-pulsatility-induced motion quantification of stent grafts in the aorta

JVS - Vascular Science, 2023
Objective: The goal of this study was to determine to what extent aortic stent graft motion quantification is comparable between electrocardiogram (ECG)-gated computed tomography (CT) scans with reconstructions into 8 and 10 cardiac phases on CT scanners

Annular Fiber Probe for Interstitial Illumination in Photoacoustic Guidance of Radiofrequency Ablation

Sensors, 2021
Unresectable liver tumors are commonly treated with percutaneous radiofrequency ablation (RFA). However, this technique is associated with high recurrence rates due to incomplete tumor ablation. Accurate image guidance of the RFA procedure contributes to

Pendant breast immobilization and positioning in photoacoustic tomographic imaging

Photoacoustics, 2021
This work describes the design, development and added value of breast-supporting cups to immobilize and position the pendant breast in photoacoustic tomographic imaging. We explain the considerations behind the choice of the material, the shape and sizes

Differences in Cardiac-Pulsatility-Induced Displacement and Geometry Changes between the Cook ZBIS and Gore IBE: Postoperative Comparison Using ECG-Gated CTA Scans

Diagnostics, 2023
To what extent the stentgraft design of iliac branch devices (IBDs) relates to dynamic deformation is currently unknown. Therefore, this study aimed to quantify and compare displacement and geometry changes during the cardiac cycle of two common IBDs ...

Spatially compounded plane wave imaging using a laser-induced ultrasound source

Photoacoustics, 2020
This work presents spatially compounded plane wave imaging using a laser-induced ultrasound source. The plane wave source consisted of a 30 μm thick film of carbon black-doped PDMS cured on a 100 μm thick polyester substrate and presented a rectangular ...
