Integrative Technique for Improved Signal-to-Noise Ratio in Medical Imaging Executive SummaryResearchers led by the University of Virginia’s William F. Walker, Ph.D., have developed an angular imaging system that improves the quality and diagnostic potential of medical imaging techniques. This novel technology uses translating apertures to acquire medical images with an improved signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and, unlike...

A Novel Spline-Based Algorithm for Multidimensional Displacement and Strain Estimation Researchers at the University of Virginia have developed a novel motion estimation algorithm based on a continuous representation of discrete-sample images, with accuracy better than one 100th of a sample. A novel strategy is employed to reduce computational cost and minimize memory requirements. In addition to rigid body motion, local stretching/compression...
