2. 1. Signal Processing for Spectroscopic Applications

   Author : Erik Gudmundson; Peter Stoica; Peter Händel; Stoica Stoica; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; spectral estimation; spectroscopic techniques; MRI; NMR; NQR; signal detection; parameter estimation; missing data; non-uniform sampling; damped sinusoids; detection of explosives; T1-mapping; relaxometry; brain imaging; skin imaging; blood velocity estimation; medical ultrasound; Signal processing; Signalbehandling; Elektroteknik med inriktning mot reglerteknik; Electrical Engineering with specialization in Automatic Control;

   Abstract : Spectroscopic techniques allow for studies of materials and organisms on the atomic and molecular level. Examples of such techniques are nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy—one of the principal techniques to obtain physical, chemical, electronic and structural information about molecules—and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)—an important medical imaging technique for, e.

4. 2. Assessment of skeletal structure by MR relaxometry

   Author : Torkel B Brismar; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : magnetic resonance imaging; bone and bones; osteoporosis;

   Abstract : Introduction: More than 40 per cent of all women older than 50 years will suffer from a hip, wrist or vertebral fracture. Most of these fractures are related to bone fragility, osteoporosis. If the disease is diagnosed and treated at an early stage the risk of fracture can be decreased. READ MORE

5. 3. Properties of stabilizers in colloidal dispersions

   Author : Catherine Boissier; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; surfactants; conformation; polymers; NMR relaxometry; exchange dynamics; residence times; adsorption; polymer-surfactant interaction; NMR diffusometry;

   Abstract : Surfactants and polymers are frequently used as stabilizers in colloidal dispersions. Depending on their solubility and the interactions in their local environment, their tendency to remain adsorbed on a surface will differ. READ MORE

6. 4. Validation of Phase Contrast Flow Quantification and Relaxometry for Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance Imaging

   Author : Sebastian Bidhult; Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik; []
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Quantitative imaging, where every pixel of an image represents a physical quantity (e.g. timeor velocity) is being increasingly used in the field of diagnostic radiology and has potential toenhance medical diagnosis. READ MORE

7. 5. Contributions to Signal Processing for MRI

   Author : Marcus Björk; Peter Stoica; Andreas Jakobsson; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Parameter estimation; efficient estimation algorithms; non-convex optimization; multicomponent T2 relaxometry; artifact reduction; T2 mapping; denoising; phase estimation; RF design; MR thermometry; in-vivo brain; Elektroteknik med inriktning mot signalbehandling; Electrical Engineering with specialization in Signal Processing;

   Abstract : Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is an important diagnostic tool for imaging soft tissue without the use of ionizing radiation. Moreover, through advanced signal processing, MRI can provide more than just anatomical information, such as estimates of tissue-specific physical properties. READ MORE
