Evaluation of Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Prostate Radiotherapy for Improved Treatment Outcomes
Ruiz, Brian (East Carolina University, 2019-05-01)External beam radiation therapy is among the most common modalities of curative treatment for prostate cancer and has evolved substantially with the inclusion of multimodality imaging in treatment planning. It has been ... -
Feasibility Study of Dual Energy Radiographic Imaging for Target Localization in Radiotherapy for Lung Tumors
Huo, Jie; Zhu, Xianfeng; Dong, Yang; Yuan, Zhiyong; Wang, Ping; Wang, Xuemin; Wang, Gang; Hu, Xin-Hua; Feng, Yuanming (2014)Purpose Dual-energy (DE) radiographic imaging improves tissue discrimination by separating soft from hard tissues in the acquired images. This study was to establish a mathematic model of DE imaging based on intrinsic ... -
Label-free classification of cultured cells through diffraction imaging
Dong, Ke; Feng, Yuanming; Jacobs, Kenneth M.; Lu, Jun Q.; Brock, R. Scott; Yang, Li V.; Bertrand, Fred E.; Farwell, Mary A.; Hu, Xin-Hua (2011-05)Automated classification of biological cells according to their 3D morphology is highly desired in a flow cytometer setting. We have investigated this possibility experimentally and numerically using a diffraction imaging ... -
A new assessment model for tumor heterogeneity analysis with [18]F-FDG PET images
Wang, Ping; Xu, Wengui; Sun, Jian; Yang, Chengwen; Wang, Gang; Sa, Yu; Hu, Xin-Hua; Feng, Yuanming (2016-01)It has been shown that the intratumor heterogeneity can be characterized with quantitative analysis of the [18]F-FDG PET image data. The existing models employ multiple parameters for feature extraction which makes it ... -
PROFILING EFFUSION CELLS BY QUANTITATIVE ANALYSIS OF MORPHOLOGY AND DIFFRACTION IMAGING PATTERNS
Al-Qaysi, Safaa (East Carolina University, 2019-04-12)Profiling cells in human pleural and peritoneal effusion (PPE) samples is an essential task for cytological diagnosis of cancers and patient management. Conventional PPE cytology of a PPE sample is labor intensive and its ...
