arXiv:2607. 22351v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The speed of sound in tissue is a prerequisite for well-focused imaging and has diagnostic value, but recovering it from raw pulse-echo channel data is fundamentally a nonlinear inverse problem.
arXiv:2608.29820v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Ultrasound B-mode imaging commonly suffers from speckle noise and artifacts, requiring a delicate balance between contrast, resolution, and preservatio...
arXiv:2607. 29182v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Transcranial focused ultrasound (tFUS) is a non-invasive technique that delivers focused acoustic energy through the skull for neuromodulation and therapeutic applications.
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.
arXiv:2607. 20136v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Slice-to-volume reconstruction (SVR) is the standard method for obtaining high-resolution (HR) 3D fetal brain volumes from motion-corrupted 2D MRI slice stacks acquired in multiple orientations.
arXiv:2505. 23594v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Multilook coherent imaging is a widely used technique in applications such as digital holography, ultrasound imaging, and synthetic aperture radar.
arXiv:2607. 25576v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Photoacoustic tomography (PAT) combines the optical absorption contrast of biological tissue with the spatial resolution of ultrasound, yet recovering the initial pressure distribution from sparse-view sensor measurements remains an ill-posed inverse problem.
Sparse-view computed tomography (CT) reduces radiation dose and acquisition time but remains severely ill-posed because incomplete projections poorly constrain null-space information. Existing learnin...
The paper introduces Segment Anything Small (SAS), a data‑augmentation method that improves deep‑learning segmentation of small anatomical structures in ultrasound images. SAS uses two transformations: resizing and embedding organ thumbnails into a black background to vary organ scale, and adding noise to regions of interest to mimic tissue texture variability. Experiments on one internal and five external datasets show Dice score gains up to 0.35, with an average improvement of 0.16, and demonstrate that SAS enhances model robustness and generalizability without adding hallucinations or artifacts.
