Meskers, Marthe (author)Myocardial perfusion, the blood flow to the heart muscle, can be evaluated by tracing the passage of a contrast agent using cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging. This technique, well-established for diagnosing coronary artery disease, is limited by the necessity for breath-holding, subjective assessment, and low myocardial coverage. In this...master thesis 2024

Vermeulen, Mark (author)Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is an important imaging modality, since it can create high-resolution cross-sectional images of the human body. In MRI scanners, the nuclear spin magnetization is excited using radio-frequency pulses. Images are created based on the time-evolution of this magnetization, which is characterized by relaxation times ...master thesis 2024

(author), Klein, Stefan (author), Thomeer, Maarten G. (author)Rationale and Objectives: Distinguishing malignant from benign liver lesions based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is an important but often challenging task, especially in noncirrhotic livers.

van der Kaaij, Daniek (author)Introduction: High cardiovascular mortality primarily limits survival following kidney transplantation (KTx). The increased risk is intrinsically connected to cardiac structural and functional abnormalities. LV volumetric imaging measurements are used to quantify this, such as left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and left ventricular end...master thesis 2023

Juffermans, Ricardo (author)Pompe disease is a progressive muscular disorder that will affect the respiratory muscles, in particular the diaphragm, thereby seriously limiting the respiratory function. Respiratory function is typically assessed using spirometry. However early stages of diaphragm impairment may not be detected by conventional spirometry measurements due to...master thesis 2023

Chen, Linda (author)Background: Histopathological examination in the diagnostic workflow of oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) is essential. We aimed to develop a machine learning pipeline to predict human papillomavirus (HPV) status in OPSCC patients based on clinical variables and multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). <br/>Methods: In a...master thesis 2023

Hoppener, Bruce (author)Focal laser ablation is a new, promising method to treat tumors. The current focal laser ablation approach is to insert an optical fiber into the patient using rigid needles. A side effect of this approach is that during the needle insertion, tissue damage occurs. The larger the diameter of the needle, the more tissue damage. If the diameter of...master thesis 2023

Kemper, Erik (author)Detection of lymph node involvement has a significant negative impact on the treatment outcome for patients with head and neck squamous-cell carcinomas (SCC). Metastatic lymph nodes can be detected with high sensitivity by 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) positron emission tomography (PET). However, 18F-FDG uptake is not only increased in...master thesis 2023

Yang, C. (author), Zhao, Y. (author), Huang, Lu (author), Xia, Liming (author), Tao, Q. (author)Quantitative MRI (qMRI) of the heart has become an important clinical tool for examining myocardial tissue properties. Because heart is a moving object, it is usually imaged with electrocardiogram and respiratory gating during acquisition, to “freeze” its motion. In reality, gating is more-often-than-not imperfect given the heart rate...conference paper 2022

Fuchs, P.S. (author), Remis, R.F. (author)In this article, we present full-wave signal models for magnetic and electric field measurements in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Our analysis is based on a scattering formalism in which the presence of an object or body is taken into account via an electric scattering source. We show that these signal models can be evaluated, provided...journal article 2022
