Absolute temperature monitoring using RF radiometry in the MRI scanner
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2006)Temperature detection using microwave radiometry has proven value for noninvasively measuring the absolute temperature of tissues inside the body. However, current clinical radiometers operate in the gigahertz range, which ... -
Accelerated phase-cycled SSFP imaging with compressed sensing
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2015)Balanced steady-state free precession (SSFP) imaging suffers from irrecoverable signal losses, known as banding artifacts, in regions of large B0 field inhomogeneity. A common solution is to acquire multiple phase-cycled ... -
Efficient parameter mapping for magnetic resonance imaging
(Bilkent University, 2019-08)Balanced steady-state free precession (bSSFP) is a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) sequence that enables high signal-to-noise ratios in short scan times. However, it has elevated sensitivity to main eld inhomogeneity, ... -
Implantable SUB-cm wireless resonators For MRI: from circuit theory to medical imaging
(Bilkent University, 2018-01)Making implantable wireless resonators having small footprints is fundamentally challenging when using conventional designs that are subject to the inherent tradeo between their size and the achievable range of ... -
Innovative hybrid composite nanomaterials
(Bilkent University, 2016-10)Digital lighting and bio-imaging are two emerging crucial research fields. Nanotechnology stands in the center of these applications by providing nano-scale particles possessing large surface-to-volume ratios, high effciency, ... -
Modeling of electrodes and implantable pulse generator cases for the analysis of implant tip heating under MR imaging
(Wiley-Blackwell Publishing, Inc., 2015)Purpose: The authors purpose is to model the case of an implantable pulse generator (IPG) and the electrode of an active implantable medical device using lumped circuit elements in order to analyze their effect on radio ... -
Novel implantable distributively loaded flexible resonators for MRI
(Bilkent University, 2011)Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is an enabling technology platform for imaging applications. In MRI, the imaging frequency falls within the radio frequency (RF) range where the tissue absorption of electromagnetic power ... -
Optimization and machine learning in MRI: applications in rapid MR image reconstruction and encoding models of cortical representations
(Bilkent University, 2020-03)Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a non-invasive medical imaging modality that is widely used by clinicians and researchers to picture body anatomy and neuronal function. However, long scan time remains a major problem. ... -
Reconfigurable MRI technology for low-SAR imaging of deep brain stimulation at 3T: application in bilateral leads, fully-implanted systems, and surgically modified lead trajectories
(Elsevier, 2019)Patients with deep brain stimulation devices highly benefit from postoperative MRI exams, however MRI is not readily accessible to these patients due to safety risks associated with RF heating of the implants. Recently we ... -
A simple analytical expression for the gradient induced potential on active implants during MRI
(2012)During magnetic resonance imaging, there is an interaction between the time-varying magnetic fields and the active implantable medical devices (AIMD). In this study, in order to express the nature of this interaction, ...
