Overview

Medical imaging has been transformed over the past 30 years by the advent of computerized tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and various advances in x-ray and ultrasonic techniques. An enabling force behind this progress has been the exponentially increasing power of computers, which has made it practical to explore fundamentally new approaches. Alternative Breast Imaging - Four Model-Based Approaches explores our research on four modalities, particularly with regard to imaging of the breast - (1) MR elastography (MRE), (2) electrical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), (3) microwave imaging spectroscopy (MIS), and (4) near infrared spectroscopic imaging (NIS).
