Classifying publications from the clinical and translational science award pr...
Abstract Background Translational research is a key area of focus of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), as demonstrated by the substantial investment in the Clinical and... -
Twenty-five years of optical coherence tomography: the paradigm shift in sens...
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) has become one of the most successful optical technologies implemented in medicine and clinical practice mostly due to the possibility of... -
A novel system for introducing precisely-controlled, unanticipated gait pertu...
Abstract Background The experimental study of stumble recovery is essential to better understanding the reflexive mechanisms that help prevent falls as well as the deficiencies... -
Risk analysis for confined space entries: critical analysis of four tools app...
Investigation reports of fatal confined space accidents nearly always point to a problem of identifying or underestimating risks. This paper compares 4 different risk analysis... -
Three dimensional polarization sensitive OCT of human skin in vivo
We present three dimensional images of backscattered intensity, and to the best of our knowledge, the first 3D-images of retardation and fast axis orientation of human skin in... -
Estimating the nationwide transmission risk of measles in US schools and impa...
Abstract Background The spread of airborne infectious diseases such as measles is a critical public health concern. The U.S. was certified measles-free in 2000, but the number... -
Real-time crustal monitoring system of Japanese Islands based on spatio-tempo...
Abstract To continuously monitor crustal behavior associated with earthquakes, magmatic activities and other environmental effects (e.g., tides and rain precipitation), we have... -
Development of a benchmark tool for cancer centers; results from a pilot exer...
Abstract Background Differences in cancer survival exist between countries in Europe. Benchmarking of good practices can assist cancer centers to improve their services aiming... -
Multimodal adaptive optics retinal imager: design and performance
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) and scanning laser ophthalmoscopy (SLO) are complementary imaging modalities, the combination of which can provide clinicians with a wealth of... -
Toward real-time quantum imaging with a single pixel camera
We present a workbench for the study of real-time quantum imaging by measuring the frame-by-frame quantum noise reduction of multi-spatial-mode twin beams generated by four wave... -
A radiomics-based model on non-contrast CT for predicting cirrhosis: make the...
Abstract Background To establish and validate a radiomics-based model for predicting liver cirrhosis in patients with hepatitis B virus (HBV) by using non-contrast computed... -
Direct measurement of the skew angle of the Poynting vector in a helically ph...
We measure the local skew angle of the Poynting vector within a helically-phased, exp(ilφ), beam using a Shack Hartmann wavefront sensor. It is the skew angle of the Poynting... -
Ambiguity of non-systematic chemical identifiers within and between small-mol...
Abstract Background A wide range of chemical compound databases are currently available for pharmaceutical research. To retrieve compound information, including structures,... -
Vision-based technique for circle detection and measurement using lookup tabl...
In this paper, we proposed a fast algorithm for circle detection and measurement, which uses a lookup table and bitwise center accumulator (LUT-BCA). The LUT-BCA is a two-stage... -
Design and assessment of a wide FOV and high-resolution optical tiled head-mo...
It has always been a challenge to break the resolution/field-of-view (FOV) invariant to design a large FOV and high-resolution optical system, especially for a head-mounted... -
Novel three-dimensional bone ‘mapping’ software can help assess progression o...
Abstract Imaging of bone metastasis response to therapy is a research priority. Stradwin is a new software-tool, with demonstrated sub-voxel accuracy in assessing cortical bone... -
HORN-6 special-purpose clustered computing system for electroholography
We developed the HORN-6 special-purpose computer for holography. We designed and constructed the HORN-6 board to handle an object image composed of one million points and... -
Novel wearable and contactless monitoring devices to identify deteriorating p...
Abstract Background With technological advances, there has been increasing interest in developing contactless and/or non-invasive wearable technologies that continuously monitor... -
InstantScope: a low-cost whole slide imaging system with instant focal plane ...
We report the development of a high-throughput whole slide imaging (WSI) system by adapting a cost-effective optomechanical add-on kit to existing microscopes. Inspired by the... -
Combination of snapshot hyperspectral retinal imaging and optical coherence t...
Abstract Introduction The eye offers potential for the diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) with retinal imaging techniques being explored to quantify amyloid accumulation and...
