Multiwavelength Implantable Oximeter for Wireless Monitoring of Tissue Oxygenation in the Presence of Blood Volume Changes

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents an implantable, wireless, battery‐free oximeter that can continuously monitor physiologically consistent regional tissue oxygenation under dynamic changes of blood volume. This is achieved through multiwavelength photoplethysmography and validated both via Monte Carlo simulations and in vivo rat studies. Different stress events were

A method of speckle noise reduction for SAR data

open access: yesInternational Journal of Remote Sensing, 1995
Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) is a high resolution active microwave sensor, but its processed data have nuisance noise called speckle noise which degrades image quality. This noise is conspicuous when the data are processed in small number of looks. In this paper, a new method for speckle reduction, the CST filter, is proposed.

Photovoltaic Stimulation of Mouse and Pig Retina With Pyrolytic Carbon Microelectrodes Integrated on High‐Density Silicon Solar Cell Arrays

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
In this study, we fabricate photovoltaic retinal implants with pyrolytic carbon electrodes and test their ability to stimulate mouse and pig retinas when illuminated with near‐infrared light. We find increased spiking activity in both animal models compared to spontaneous activity and TTX controls and analyze the spike amplitude, latency and frequency.

Suppression of Speckle Noise by Speckle Pinning in Adaptive Optics

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2002
Optical astronomy is increasingly concerned with the detection of faint companions, which may eventually include planetary systems, close to much brighter primary stars. Detection limits are generally set by "speckle noise," random variations in focal plane intensity that result when atmospheric turbulence redistributes the undesirably copious flux of ...

Noise in laser speckle correlation and imaging techniques

open access: yesOptics Express, 2010
We study the noise of the intensity variance and of the intensity correlation and structure functions measured in light scattering from a random medium in the case when these quantities are obtained by averaging over a finite number N of pixels of a digital camera.

Hydrophilic Polymers Enable Gastrointestinal Transit Monitoring by Fluorine‐19 Magnetic Resonance Imaging

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Hydrophilic fluorinated copolymers dissolve in chyme and give a strong, single 19F signal, unlike phase‐separating perfluorocarbons. Combined 1H‐19F MRI tracks their whole‐gut transit non‐invasively and without ionizing radiation. In rats, the tracers move through the gastrointestinal tract, resist resorption, and are well tolerated, a proof‐of‐concept

Speckle Noise Reduction and Image Segmentation Based on a Modified Mean Filter

open access: yesComputer Assisted Methods in Engineering and Science, 2020
Image segmentation is an essential process in many fields involving digital images. In general, segmentation is the process of dividing the image into objects and background image. Image segmentation is an important step in the object detection process.
