Abstract:
Registration of medical imaging is essential for aligning in time and space different modalities and hence consolidating their strengths for enhanced diagnosis and for the effective planning of treatment or therapeutic interventions. The primary objective of this study is to develop an integrated registration method that is effective for registering both brain and whole-body images. We seek in the proposed method to combine in one setting the excellent registration results that FMRIB Software Library (FSL) produces with brain images and the excellent results of Statistical Parametric Mapping (

Abstract:
Lung cancer is a disease affecting millions of people every year and poses a serious threat to global public health. Accurate lung cancer staging is crucial to choose an appropriate treatment protocol and to determine prognosis, this requires the acquisition of contrast-enhanced diagnostic CT (d-CT) that is usually followed by a PET/CT scan. Information from both d-CT and PET scan is used by the clinician in the staging process; however, these images are not intrinsically aligned because they are acquired on different days and on different scanners.

Abstract:
Perfusion CT imaging of the liver has potential to improve evaluation of tumour angiogenesis. Quantitative parameters can be obtained applying mathematical models to Time Attenuation Curve (TAC). However, there are still some difficulties for an accurate quantification of perfusion parameters due, for example, to algorithms employed, to mathematical model, to patient’s weight and cardiac output and to the acquisition system. In this thesis, new parameters and alternative methodologies about liver perfusion CT are presented in order to investigate the cause of variability of this technique.

Positron emission tomography (PET) is a powerful and highly specialised imaging modality that has the inherent ability to detect and quantify changes in the bio-distribution of an intravenously administered radio-labelled tracer, through dynamic image acquisition of the system under study.

Traditionally parameter estimation is done by first reconstructing a set of dynamic images independently, followed by kinetic modelling, leading to parameters of reduced accura

Time-of-flight technology (TOF) is at the leading edge of advancements in PET/CT imaging, and is made possible due to the availability of new scanner design, scintillating materials and fast computers. The location of annihilation is estimated according to the time difference between scintillation events produced by two 511KeV gamma photons travelling in opposite directions. The additional information is incorporated into image reconstruction to suppress noise propagation and increase signal-to-noise ratio. As shown in previous studies, these properties can be translated in to clinical usage

Abstract:
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the leading cause of dementia and is alone responsible for 60-70% of all cases of dementia. Though sharing clinical symptoms with other types of dementia, the hallmarks of AD are the abundance of extracellular depositions of β-amyloid (Aβ) plaques, intracellular neurofibrillary tangles of hyper phosphorylated tau proteins and synaptic depletion. The onset of the physiological hallmarks may precede clinical symptoms with a decade or more, and once clinical symptoms occur it may be difficult to separate AD from other types of dementia based on clinical symptoms alone.

Excessive imaging doses from repeated scans and poor image quality mainly due to scatter contamination are the two bottlenecks of cone-beam CT (CBCT) imaging. This study investigates a method that combines measurement-based scatter correction and a compressed sensing (CS)-based iterative reconstruction algorithm to generate scatter-free images from low-dose data. Scatter distribution is estimated by interpolating/extrapolating measured scatter samples inside blocked areas.

Abstract:
This thesis deals with CT data segmentation using convolutional neural nets and describes the problem of training with limited training sets. User interaction is suggested as means of improving segmentation quality for the models trained on small training sets and the possibility of using transfer learning is also considered. All of the chosen methods help improve the segmentation quality in comparison with the baseline method, which is the use of automatic data specific segmentation model. The segmentation has improved by tens of percents in Dice score when trained with very small datasets. T

Abstract:
The research in this thesis is intended to aid caregivers’ supervision of toddlers to prevent accidental injuries, especially injuries due to falls in the home environment. There have been very few attempts to develop an automatic system to tackle young children’s accidents despite the fact that they are particularly vulnerable to home accidents and a caregiver cannot give continuous supervision. Vision-based analysis methods have been developed to recognise toddlers’ fall risk factors related to changes in their behaviour or environment. First of all, suggestions to prevent fall events of you

Abstract:
Les maladies coronariennes constituent l'ensemble des troubles affectant les artères coronaires. Elles sont la première cause mondiale de mortalité. Par conséquent, la détection précoce de ces maladies en utilisant des techniques peu invasives fournit un meilleur résultat thérapeutique, et permet de réduire les coûts et les risques liés à une approche interventionniste. Des études récentes ont montré que la tomodensitométrie peut être utilisée comme une alternative non invasive et fiable pour localiser et quantifier ces lésions. Cependant, l'analyse de ces examens, basée sur l'inspection des s

Abstract:
The treatment plan for radiation therapy with protons is based on images from a computed tomography (CT) scanner. This is problematic since the photons in the x-ray beam from the CT scanner and the protons are affected differently by the tissue in the patient, which introduce an uncertainty in the track length of the protons. The hypothesis of this study is that a new generation of CT scanners (DECT), with the capacity to simultaneously scan the patient with two photon spectra of different mean energy, will improve the tissue characterisation and which in turn reduce the uncertainty in the tra

Abstract:
Rentgenová počítačová mikrotomografie (CT) je metoda pro trojrozměrné (3D) zobrazování vnitřní struktury objektů. Laboratoř rentgenové počítačové mikro a nanotomografie na CEITEC VUT (Středoevropský technologický institut, Vysoké učení technické v Brně) se zaměřuje zejména na nedestruktivní analýzu v průmyslovém odvětví. Ukázalo se ale, že tato metoda nachází široké uplatnění i v dalších vědeckých oblastech včetně vývojové biologie. Tato práce poskytuje propojení mezi materiálovými a živými vědami. Kompletní proces vedoucí k vytvoření 3D modelu různých anatomických struktur je detailně popsán.

Abstract:
Modern medical imaging techniques have revolutionized health care over the last decades, providing clinicians with high-resolution 3D images of the inside of the patient's body without the need for invasive procedures. Detailed images of the vascular anatomy can be captured by angiography, providing a valuable source of information when deciding whether a vascular intervention is needed, for planning treatment, and for analyzing the success of therapy. However, increasing level of detail in the images, together with a wide availability of imaging devices, lead to an urgent need for automated t

Abstract:
Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is a form of aggressive tumour that is almost always associated with prior exposure to asbestos. Currently responsible for over 47,000 deaths worldwide each year and rising, it poses a serious threat to global public health. Many clinical studies of MPM, including its diagnosis, prognostic planning, and the evaluation of a treatment, necessitate the accurate quantification of tumours based on medical image scans, primarily computed tomography (CT). Currently, clinical best practice requires application of the MPM-adapted Response Evaluation Criteria in Soli
