Investigation of an apodized imaged Hartmann wavefront sensor
Abstract:
Quantitative wavefront measurements are demonstrated using a Hartmann mask re-imaged onto a camera. The wavefront is reconstructed using standard algorithms applied to the difference of beamlet centroids determined from fluence distributions obtained for two different longitudinal locations of the mask. The wavefront of the optical wave in the object plane is measured independently of imaging-system collimation. Apodization obtained with spatially dithered distributions of small transparent or opaque pixels improves the measurement accuracy by reducing the spatial-frequency content of the mask holes. Simulations and experiments demonstrate the excellent accuracy of this diagnostic over a wide range of parameters, making it suitable, for example, to characterize laser systems.

Radiological Investigation II: MRI and Ventilation Perfusion Scan
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Ventilation Perfusion Scans are two radiological investigations that offer detailed diagnostic images of the body, particularly lung structures.
MRI
MRI uses magnetic fields and radiofrequency signals to distinguish between normal and abnormal tissues. This technology provides a more detailed diagnostic image than CT scans, enabling it to characterize pulmonary nodules, stage bronchogenic carcinoma, and evaluate inflammatory activity in...

Pulmonary Angiogram
A Pulmonary Angiogram is an invasive procedure involving injecting a contrast medium through a catheter threaded into the pulmonary artery or the right side of the heart to visualize the pulmonary vasculature. Computed Tomography (CT) scans have mainly replaced this...
