Precision in surgical removal of cancer is guided by pathological assessment of resected tissues, and there is a dire need to reduce the time and distance between the critical diagnostic events and the surgical procedure.
This invention is a system that allows labeling of radiological images based on anatomy, such that radiologists or other users can locate the images using anatomical names.
Researchers in Dr. Michael Lin's lab have developed a fluorescent voltage sensor for non-invasive optical monitoring of electrical events in living cells in vitro and in vivo.
Hydrogel-based tissue engineering scaffolds are widely used for culturing cells in three dimensions (3D) due to their tissue-like water content, tunable biochemical and physical properties, and ease of cell encapsulation and distribution in 3D.
A team of Stanford researchers have identified a novel small molecule that could be used in vivo or ex vivo to enrich for submandibular salivary gland (SMG) stem cell (SC).
Homodyne image reconstruction is combined with an iterative decomposition of water and fat from MR signals obtained from a partial k-space signal acquisition in order to maximize the resolution of calculated water and fat images.
Disclosed is x-ray cone beam scan data reconstruction of an imaged object with a reconstruction algorithm using shift invariant filtering and backprojection with the maximum tomographic capability of a circular scan larger than p plus cone angle, when CB data is not truncated
Researchers in Prof. Karl Deisseroth's laboratory have developed specific, inducible animal models for depression that use targeted optogenetic strategies to precisely dissect the neuronal circuits underlying the condition.
Researchers in Prof. Karl Deisseroth's laboratory have developed a system to enhance optogenetic pumps using one tool to address current limitations in both inhibition and excitation.
Researchers in Prof. Robert Malenka's laboratory have developed a light-activated animal system that could be used to identify compounds that treat certain psychiatric disorders.
Stanford researchers have discovered an algorithm that significantly increases the performance of poorly performing brain machine interfaces (BMIs). This novel algorithm has two major innovations.
This invention enables depth-of-interaction detection of Positron Emission Tomography (PET) without sacrificing other performance parameters or escalating the cost.
Stanford researchers have developed a system and method to increase sampling in x-ray and CT images by deflecting the focal spot of an x-ray tube. This invention achieves focal spot z-wobble by shaping the rotating anode.
Dr. Shreyas Vasanawala and collaborators have developed a nonrigid motion correction technique that will allow for motion-free Magnetic Resonance (MR) images to be obtained even during lengthy scans. Motion is a major source of image artifacts for MR studies.
