Abstract:

Stratified medicine has tremendous potential to deliver more effective therapeutic intervention to improve public health. For practical implementation, reliable prediction models and clinically meaningful categorization of some comprehensible summary measures of individual treatment effect are vital elements to aid the decision-making process and bring stratified medicine to fruitful realization. We tackle the quantitative issues involved from three fronts : 1) prediction model building and selection; 2) reproducibility assessment; and 3) stratification. First, we propose a systematic model d

Abstract:

Optimal operation is important to improve productivity to be more competitive, and therefore, increase profitability. Optimal operation can be viewed to constitute the control layer (supervisory layer plus regulatory layer) and optimization layer in the hierarchical decomposition of plantwide control. The task of control layer is to keep controlled variables at given set points and the task of optimization layer is to provide optimal set points. For simple implementation, we want to update the set points less frequently while obtaining an acceptable loss in the presence of disturbances. This c

In this thesis methods for the assessment of cerebral haemodynamics using 7 T Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) are described. The measurement of haemodynamic parameters, such as cerebral blood flow (CBF), is an important clinical tool. Arterial Spin Labelling (ASL) is a non-invasive technique for CBF measurement using MRI. ASL methodology for ultra high field (7 T) MRI was developed, including investigation of the optimal readout strategy.

Ultrasound imaging of blood flow in the heart and blood vessels has become an essential part of diagnosing diseases related to the circulatory system.

Pulsed wave (PW) Doppler is a technique for measuring blood velocities, providing the full velocity spectrum in a specific region of interest.

Scars and scarring are fundamental issues for every surgical, burns and trauma patient. As such it is a phenomenon that we should be able to deal with in a simple and systematic fashion.

This is important as there is a need for an accurate, objective and quantitative technique for scar assessment which will be able to assist in the diagnosis, monitoring and evaluation of the various scar management regimes available,

Photoacoustic tomography (PAT) is showing its potential as a non-invasive biomedical imaging modality, and interest in the field is growing rapidly.

Cardiovascular diseases are the leading causes of death worldwide and improved diagnostic methods are needed for early intervention and to select the most suitable treatment for patients. Currently, carotid artery plaque vulnerability is typically determined by visually assessing ultrasound B-mode images, which is influenced by user-subjectivity. Since plaque vulnerability is correlated to the mechanical properties of the plaque, quantitative techniques are needed to estimate plaque stiffness as a surrogate for plaque vulnerability, which would reduce subjectivity during plaque assessment.

Abstract:

Quantitative photoacoustic tomography (QPAT) is a hybrid biomedical imaging technique that derives its specificity from the wavelength-dependent absorption of near-infrared/visible laser light, and its sensitivity from ultrasonic waves. This promising technique has the potential to reveal more than just structural information, it can also probe tissue function. Specifically, QPAT has the capability to estimate concentrations of endogenous chromophores, such as the concentrations of oxygenated and deoxygenated haemoglobin (from which blood oxygenation can be calculated), as well as the concentr

Joint evaluation of drugs’ beneficial and adverse effects is required in many situations, in particular to inform decisions on initial or sustained marketing of drugs, or to guide the treatment of individual patients. This synthesis, known as benefit-risk assessment, is without doubt important: timely decisions supported by transparent and sound assessments can reduce mortality and morbidity in potentially large groups of patients. At the same time, it can be hugely complex: drug effects are generally disparate in nature and likelihood, and the information that needs to be processed is diverse

Protein-protein interactions (PPIs) are vital for the function of a cell and the evolution of these interactions produce much of the evolution of phenotype of an organism. However, as the evolutionary process cannot be observed, methods are required to infer evolution from existing data.

These initiatives, and the work that supports them, primarily concern themselves with the curricula, attitudes, and output of students and academics within Higher Education.

Due to sampling processes volumetric data is inherently discrete and most often knowledge of the underlying continuous model is not available. Surface rendering techniques attempt to reconstruct the continuous model, using isosurfaces, from the discrete data. Therefore, it natural to ask how accurate the reconstructed isosurfaces are with respect to the underlying continuous model. A reconstructed isosurface may look impressive when rendered ("photorealism"), but how well does it reflect reality ("physical realism")?;The users of volume visualization packages must be aware of the short-comings
