A new signal interrogation concept, based on Synthetic Structural Imaging (SSI) physics, has been developed to guide therapies. The SSI method was previously successful in radar and sonar imaging; here it is demonstrated for acoustic scattering from penetrable biological targets. Operating at ultrasonic frequencies of several hundred kilohertz, SSI trades the higher resolution of typical B-mode ultrasound...
This paper introduces volume springs that provide the volume effect to a surface model when it is deformed. The estimation of the properties of the model takes the real material properties into consideration, where each spring stiffness is derived based on the elasticity, rigidity and compressibility modulus. The proposed model can be adopted to simulate soft objects such as a deformable human breast,...
Cryoablation is a minimally invasive ablation technique for primary and metastatic hepatic tumors. Inadequate freezing around large blood vessels due to the warm blood flow can lead to local recurrence, and thus, necessitates close application of a cryoprobe to the large blood vessels. In this study, we constructed a perfusion model with an exvivo bovine liver and ablated the tissue around a large...
