3D, High Resolution, Whole Body Cryo-Imaging of Single GFP-Labeled Cancer Cells in the Mouse

Grant Steyer, Meredith Stone, Debashish Roy

The Case cryo-imaging system enables high resolution, 3D mapping of fluorescently-labeled stem and cancer cells throughout the mouse. The system consists of a mouse-sized cryomicrotome; microscope; low light camera; three axis robotic positioning system; and automation, visualization, and analysis software... more

Characterization of Obese Mice using MR Imaging and Advanced Image Analysis

Dave Johnson

Obesity is one of the most important health problems in this country, and there is an obvious hereditary component. My research focuses upon characterizing mouse models of obesity using Magnetic Resonance (MR) imaging and advanced image analysis techniques... more

Computer Aided Diagnosis of Vascular MR Images and Vulnerable Plaques

Olivier Salvado

Our research focuses on the non-invasive diagnosis and staging of atherosclerosis using high resolution, magnetic resonance (MR) images... more

Quantitative Image Quality in X-ray and MR Images

Yuhao Jiang and Donglai Huo

X-RAY: Our research is focusing on optimizing acquisition and processing of interventional x-ray fluoroscopy using quantitative image quality techniques... more

Three-dimensional Image Registration and Its Clinical and Biological Application

Baowei Fei

We use an interventional magnetic resonance imaging (iMRI) system to guide minimally invasive treatments, including the radiofrequency (RF) thermal ablation of abdominal cancers... more
