A New Device to Markedly Reduce Personnel Radiation Exposure in the Cardiac Cath Lab
Background Radiation exposure that physicians and hospital staff receive while treating patients has recently been associated with a marked increase in cancer, cataracts, and skin lesions. Staff in cardiac catheterization and interventional radiology laboratories have the highest radiation exposure of any profession, despite the use of standard x-ray ...

Vision-based 3D surface motion capture for the DIET breast cancer screening system
Breast cancer is one of the most prevalent forms of cancer in the world today. The search for effective treatment and screening methods is a highly active area of research. The Digital Image-based Elasto-Tomography (DIET) project is a new breast cancer screening system under development, where surface motion from the mechanically actuated breast is measured in 3D, and used as input to an inverse ...

Molecular imaging with targeted quantum dot bioconjugates: the need for contrast optimisation studies
Quantum dots have the potential to be used as contrast agents for molecular imaging in vivo, but there are many challenges in optimising such procedures, both in pre-clinical animal models and in the potential clinical applications. In particular, it is critical to obtain the optimal target-to-background contrast to achieve maximum diagnostic accuracy. However, available data are insufficient to ...
