Automatic Patient-Specific Microwave Ablation Planning Accelerated by a Physics-Guided Deep Learning Model

arXiv:2608. 03086v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Microwave ablation (MWA) is a promising minimally invasive treatment for liver tumors, but its therapeutic outcome strongly depends on patient-specific planning of antenna insertion trajectory, power, and treatment duration.

Shadow Reduction in Ultrasound Imaging Using Differentiable Simulation and Radiance Field Decomposition

RFlash is a physics‑informed post‑processing technique that removes acoustic shadows in ultrasound by decomposing beamformed images into attenuation and scatter‑intensity maps using a differentiable radiance‑field model. It re‑renders images to eliminate depth‑dependent signal loss, effectively simulating a virtual transducer advance. Across thousands of fetal brain, abdominal, and liver scans, RFlash outperforms traditional attenuation correction, reduces prediction error by 40% in fetal brain imaging, and provides shadow‑confidence maps that enhance bone‑shadow segmentation.
