Electron Microscope Tomography and Single-particle Reconstruction

Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) can be used to determine the 3D structure of biological samples with the help of techniques such as electron microscope tomography and single-particle reconstruction. While single-particle reconstruction can examine macromolecules and macromolecular complexes in vitro conditions only, tomography permits the study of cell components or small cells in vivo.

Computed Tomography

Tomography refers to imaging by sections. Computed tomography (CT) is a non-invasive imaging technique that uses computers to analyze several cross-sectional X-rays to reveal minute details about structures in the body.
The technique was invented in the 1970s and is based on the principle that as X-rays pass through the body, they are absorbed or reflected at different levels. In the technique, a patient lies on a motorized platform while a computerized axial tomography (CAT) scanner rotates...

Imaging Studies III: Computed Tomography

DefinitionComputed Tomography (CT) of the genitourinary (GU) tract is a non-invasive imaging modality that utilizes X-rays and computer processing to generate detailed cross-sectional images of the urinary system, encompassing the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and adjacent structures such as the adrenal glands.PurposeCT scans of the GU tract serve several diagnostic and therapeutic purposes, including:Diagnosis of Urinary Tract Diseases: Detects kidney stones, tumors, cysts, and congenital...

Area of Science:

  • Biomedical Optics
  • Medical Imaging
  • Computational Biology

Background:

  • Diffuse Optical Tomography (DOT) is a non-invasive imaging technique using near-infrared light for in-vivo tissue analysis.
  • DOT enables dynamic probing of biological interactions and real-time monitoring of diseases and treatment responses.
  • Current DOT applications include breast and infant brain imaging, but reconstruction time is a significant limitation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a significantly faster solution strategy for Diffuse Optical Tomography (DOT) imaging.
  • To overcome the limitations imposed by long reconstruction times in current DOT methods.
  • To enable real-time, continuous, and potentially bedside DOT imaging.

Main Methods:

  • Implemented advanced model-order reduction (MOR) techniques to simplify the DOT system complexity.
  • Preserved the essential input-output behavior of the forward problem during system reduction.
  • Compared the MOR-based imaging method against conventional DOT approaches.

Main Results:

  • The MOR-based imaging method demonstrated a significant reduction in imaging time, achieving speeds up to an order of magnitude faster than conventional methods.
  • The developed strategy maintained a relatively small error tolerance, ensuring imaging accuracy.
  • The results indicate the feasibility of developing faster DOT systems.

Conclusions:

  • Model-order reduction (MOR) offers a viable strategy to accelerate DOT imaging reconstruction.
  • Faster DOT imaging can facilitate the development of inexpensive, non-invasive systems for real-time patient monitoring at the bedside.
  • This advancement holds promise for improved diagnostic capabilities and continuous health monitoring.
