Stanford Researchers have patented a method and apparatus for detecting ionizing radiation, that, if successful, would achieve a coincidence time resolution 100x better than current positron emission tomography (PET) detectors.
Stanford researchers developed an ultrasound method to estimate the local speed of sound of tissue, regardless of the tissue overlying the target location.
Stanford researchers patented a capacitive micromachined ultrasonic transducer (CMUT) with a pressurized cavity for use in environments with extreme pressure variations.
Stanford researchers have designed a system to provide accelerated magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the presence of metallic implants, which induce variations in the static magnetic field that normally require long scan times.
Stanford researchers have patented a new method for Compressed Sensing (CS) which reconstructs signals and images from significantly fewer measurements than current standards while maintaining high reconstruction accuracy.
Stanford researchers at the Rao Lab have developed apoptosis imaging probes with an improved new molecular structure enabling high sensitivity and stability with better performance in vivo.
An interdisciplinary team of Stanford researchers is developing a dual axis confocal (“DAC”) microscope system for in vivo imaging of tissues at the cellular scale.
Stanford researchers have developed a portable particle accelerator – the SLAC Piezoelectric Accelerator Neutron Source (SPAN). When combined with an ion source and a deuterated target, this piezoelectric, high-voltage generator makes a compact neutron generator system.
Stanford researchers have designed a method to perform an off-resonance corrected MRI reconstruction by modeling the off-resonance terms as part of the image encoding process.
MR-guidance for biopsy procedures features high intrinsic soft-tissue contrast. However, artifacts induced by the metallic needle such as signal void and distortions can reduce the localization of the needle and thus prevent the targeting of smaller lesions.
Stanford researchers at the Airan Lab have developed a new method for robust and spatiotemporally precise non-invasive neuromodulation that could transform both basic and clinical neuroscience.
Transgenic mice carrying reporter genes are extremely useful tools in modern biomedical science to unravel various underlying molecular mechanisms crucial for normal development, as well as, disease progression.
Researchers at the Solgaard Lab have demonstrated that light sheet fluorescence microscopy (LSFM) with structured and pivoting illumination enables fast image acquisition and improved image quality.
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).
