Abstract:
Coronary artery disease is one of the most pernicious diseases around the world and early identification of vascular disease can help to reduce morbidity and mortality. Assessment of the degree of vascular obstruction, or stenosis, is critical for classifying the risks of the future vascular events. Automatic detection and quantification of stenosis are important in assessing coronary artery disease from medical imagery, especially for disease progression. Important factors affecting the reproducability and robustness of accuarate quantification arise from the partial volume effect and other n

Abstract:
The integration of 3D computed tomography (CT) and ultrasound (US) is of considerable interest because it can potentially improve many minimally invasive procedures such as robot-assisted laparoscopic partial nephrectomy. Partial nephrectomy patients often receive preoperative CT angiography for diagnosis. The 3D CT image is of high quality and has a large field of view. Intraoperatively, dynamic real-time images are acquired using ultrasound. While US is real-time and safe for frequent imaging, the images captured are noisy and only provide a limited perspective.

Complex branching 3D structures, such as root systems, renal vasculature and pulmonary airways and vasculature, are prevalent throughout nature.

Asthma is a prevalent chronic airway disease that is not yet fully understood. Murine models of lung diseases are used with increasing frequency.

O contínuo controle de qualidade dos meios de produção é a chave mestra para garantir a qualidade e a competitividade dos produtos. O Centro de Tecnologia das Radiações (CTR)

Abstract:
La résolution spatiale des images acquises par tomographie volumique à faisceau conique (CBCT) est limitée par la géométrie des capteurs, leur sensibilité, les mouvements du patient, les techniques de reconstruction d'images et la limitation de la dose de rayonnement. Le modèle de dégradation d'image considéré dans cette thèse consiste en un opérateur de ou avec la fonction d'étalement du système d'imagerie (PSF), un opérateur de décimation, et du bruit, qui relient les volumes CBCT à une image 3D super-résolue à estimer.

Le syndrome de détresse respiratoire aiguë (SDRA) présente un taux de mortalité élevé, près de 40%, dans des unités de soins intensifs. Il est défini comme un ensemble de manifestations cliniques, radiologiques et physiologiques qui traduisent une intense inflammation pulmonaire et une hyperperméabilité pulmonaire, correspondant aux différentes agressions aiguës du poumon. Le prise en charge des patients atteints du SDRA nécessite une ventilation assistée qui, en cas de mauvaise adaptation des paramètres de ventilation, notamment, pression et volume, peut aggraver l'état du patient.

Abstract:
A presença da Medicina Nuclear como modalidade de obtenção de imagens médicas é um dos principais procedimentos utilizados hoje nos centros de saúde, tendo como grande vantagem a capacidade de analisar o comportamento metabólico do paciente, traduzindo-se em diagnósticos precoces. Entretanto, sabe-se que a quantificação em Medicina Nuclear é dificultada por diversos fatores, entre os quais estão a correção de atenuação, espalhamento, algoritmos de reconstrução e modelos assumidos. Neste contexto, o principal objetivo deste projeto foi melhorar a acurácia e a precisão na análise de imagens de P

Abstract:
The use of machine learning algorithms to enhance and facilitate medical diagnosis and analysis is a promising and an important area, which could improve the workload of clinicians’ substantially. In order for machine learning algorithms to learn a certain task, large amount of data needs to be available. Data sets for medical image analysis are rarely public due to restrictions concerning the sharing of patient data. The production of synthetic images could act as an anonymization tool to enable the distribution of medical images and facilitate the training of machine learning algorithms, whi

Abstract:
A Tomografia Computadorizada de Energia Dupla (DECT em inglês) é um dos campos das imagens tomográficas que mais evoluiu nos últimos anos. O DECT usa dois espectros para irradiar pacientes e é capaz de diferenciar tecidos com base na sua composição elementar. Apesar de serem semelhantes aos dispositivos padrão de tomografia, para essa modalidade é necessário o desenvolvimento de ferramentas específicas que permitam o estudo de suas propriedades de imagem. O objetivo deste trabalho era construir um sistema simulado de Tomografia Computadorizada (TC) com a capacidade de produzir imagens semelhan

Abstract:
Les médecins radiologues utilisent des séries d’images issues de la tomodensitométrie (TDM) abdominale pour examiner le foie et diagnostiquer les éventuelles pathologies. Cependant, ce processus est souvent long, complexe et sujet à des risques d’erreurs humaines. Les études des récentes années démontrent que l’intelligence artificielle (IA) a ouvert de nouvelles perspectives en imagerie médicale, permettant de détecter plus tôt les cancers du foie et d’optimiser l’ensemble du processus diagnostique.

Abstract:
Statistical iterative reconstruction (SIR) algorithms for x-ray computed tomography (CT) have the potential to reconstruct images with less noise and systematic error than the conventional filtered backprojection (FBP) algorithm. More accurate reconstruction algorithms are important for reducing imaging dose and for a wide range of quantitative CT applications. The work presented herein investigates some potential advantages of one such statistically motivated algorithm called Alternating Minimization (AM). A simulation study is used to compare the tradeoff between noise and resolution in i
