Stanford researchers have invented a decoder for multiplexed readouts of imaging arrays that optimizes the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the decoded detector pixel signals.
Stanford researchers have developed methods of extracting photon depth of interaction (DOI) information to develop less complex, cost effective DOI detector technologies for high resolution positron emission tomography (PET).
Stanford researchers have developed a patented method for precisely controlling the force exerted by a permanent magnet for use in medical systems. This system is ideally suited for applications such as robotic catheter placement and endoscopy capsule manipulation.
Stage of research
Researchers designed electro-optical gratings for fluorescence microscopy - a drop in to existing systems with no new lenses. Researchers demonstrate a 9x improvement on FOV using Olympus 10x/0.6NA WI immersion objective at 3.3 Hz.
A volumetric computed tomography method includes translating a discrete element x-ray source and detector relative to the patient or object in a z-direction parallel to the axis of rotation.
Researchers in Prof. Lambertus Hesselink's laboratory have developed a compact, sensitive X-ray differential phase contrast (DPC) imaging system that improves field of view, increases fringe visibility and shortens imaging times.
Researchers in the Molecular Imaging Instrumentation Laboratory at Stanford University have developed methods to improve the image quality of tomographic image reconstruction, including positron emission tomography (PET).
Researchers at Stanford have developed a dual modality imaging probe to provide improved atherosclerosis detection and evaluation. Atherosclerosis is a disease in which plaque builds up inside arteries.
Researchers at Stanford have developed a ferumoxytol-based dual-modality imaging probe that allows for long-term stem cell tracking through MRI and early diagnosis of cell apoptosis through simultaneous fluorescence imaging.
Researchers at Stanford University have developed a system for improved scatter correction in CT scans by simultaneously collecting image projection data and scatter data in a single scan.
Researchers in the Molecular Imaging Program at Stanford have developed several novel small molecule agents designed to enhance photoacoustic imaging in living subjects.
Stanford researchers have proposed a new concept for direct measurement of specific absorption ratio (SAR), to be used as a safety assessment / monitoring tool for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
