As a novel scheme, Fourier single-pixel imaging(FSI) has been proven capable of reconstructing high-quality images. Due to the fact that the Fourier basis patterns(also known as grayscale sinusoidal patterns)cannot be well displayed on the digital micromirror device(DMD), a fast FSI system is proposed to solve this problem by binarizing Fourier pattern through a dithering algorithm. However, the traditional dithering algorithm leads to low quality as the extra noise is inevitably induced in the reconstructed images. In this paper, we report a better dithering algorithm to binarize Fourier pattern, which utilizes the Sierra–Lite kernel function by a serpentine scanning method. Numerical simulation and experiment demonstrate that the proposed algorithm is able to achieve higher quality under different sampling ratios.展开更多

In this Letter, we propose a method to improve the noise-robustness of two-step FSPI without additional illumination patterns or measurements. In the proposed method, the measurements from base patterns are replaced by the average values of the measurement from two sets of phase-shift patterns. Thus, the imaging degradation caused by the noise in the measurements from base patterns can be avoided, and more reliable Fourier spectral coefficients are obtained. The imaging quality of the proposed robust two-step FSPI is similar to those of three-step FSPI and four-step FSPI. Simulations and experimental results validate the effectiveness of the proposed method.展开更多

Blood flow velocity serves as a critical biomarker for evaluating perfusion status. Quantitative detection of full-field blood flow variations in lesion areas holds significant scientific and clinical value for pathological studies,diagnosis, and intraoperative monitoring of related diseases. While laser speckle contrast imaging(LSCI) enables full-field blood flow visualization, its reliance on frame-based sensors necessitates handling massive data volumes, leading to inherent trade-offs among spatiotemporal resolution, real-time performance, and quantitative capabilities. Leveraging the asynchronous dynamic sensing, high temporal sampling rate, and low data redundancy of event cameras, this study proposes a quantitative blood flow imaging method termed laser speckle event imaging(LSEI). Experiments using off-the-shelf event cameras demonstrate that LSEI achieves real-time blood flow imaging with minimal computational overhead compared to frame-based LSCI. Furthermore,we investigate the relationship between event data streams and flow velocity through spatial-temporal autocorrelation analysis,enabling quantitative measurements without compromising temporal or spatial resolution. In in vivo imaging experiments of mouse ear blood flow, LSEI exhibits superior imaging details and real-time performance over conventional methods. The proposed approach holds promise as an efficient tool for diagnosis, therapeutic evaluation, and research on vascular-related diseases.展开更多

In this paper, we report a better dithering algorithm to binarize Fourier pattern, which utilizes the Sierra–Lite kernel function by a serpentine scanning method. Numerical simulation and experiment demonstrate that the proposed algorithm is able to achieve higher quality under different sampling ratios.
文摘A two-stage training method is proposed to enhance imaging quality and reduce reconstruction time in datadriven single-pixel imaging(SPI)under undersampling conditions.This approach leverages a deep learning algorithm to simulate single-pixel detection and image reconstruction.During the initial training stage,an L2 regularization constraint is imposed on convolution modulation patterns to determine the optimal initial network weights.In the subsequent stage,a coupled deep learning method integrating coded-aperture design and SPI is adopted,which utilizes backpropagation of the loss function to iteratively optimize both the binarized modulation patterns and imaging network parameters.By reducing the binarization errors introduced by the dithering algorithm,this approach improves the quality of data-driven SPI.Compared with traditional deep-learning SPI methods,the proposed method significantly reduces computational complexity,resulting in accelerated image reconstruction.Experimental and simulation results demonstrate the advantages of the method,including high imaging quality,short image reconstruction time,and simplified training.For an image size of 64×64 pixels and 10%sampling rate,the proposed method achieves a peak signal-to-noise ratio of 23.22 dB,structural similarity index of 0.76,and image reconstruction time of approximately 2.57×10^(−4) seconds.

文摘Photon-level single-pixel imaging overcomes the reliance of traditional imaging techniques on large-scale array detectors,offering the advantages such as high sensitivity,high resolution,and efficient photon utilization.In this paper,we propose a photon-level dynamic feature single-pixel imaging method,leveraging the frequency domain sparsity of the object's dynamic features to construct a compressed measurement system through discrete random photon detection.In the experiments,we successfully captured 167 and 200 Hz featured frequencies and achieved high-quality image reconstruction with a data compression ratio of 20%.Our approach introduces a new detection dimension,significantly expanding the applications of photon-level single-pixel imaging in practical scenarios.

文摘Existing two-step Fourier single-pixel imaging (FSPI) suffers from low noise-robustness, and three-step FSPI and four-step FSPI improve the noise-robustness but at the cost of more measurements. In this Letter, we propose a method to improve the noise-robustness of two-step FSPI without additional illumination patterns or measurements. In the proposed method, the measurements from base patterns are replaced by the average values of the measurement from two sets of phase-shift patterns. Thus, the imaging degradation caused by the noise in the measurements from base patterns can be avoided, and more reliable Fourier spectral coefficients are obtained. The imaging quality of the proposed robust two-step FSPI is similar to those of three-step FSPI and four-step FSPI. Simulations and experimental results validate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

文摘Neutron-induced gamma-ray imaging is a spectroscopic technique that uses characteristic gamma rays to infer the elemental distribution of an object.Currently,this technique requires the use of large facilities to supply a high neutron flux and a time-consuming detection procedure involving direct collimating measurements.In this study,a new method based on low neutron flux was proposed.A single-pixel gamma-ray detector combined with random pattern gamma-ray masks was used to measure the characteristic gamma rays emitted from the sample.Images of the elemental distribution in the sample,comprising 30×30 pixels,were reconstructed using the maximum-likelihood expectation-maximization algorithm.The results demonstrate that the elemental imaging of the sample can be accurately determined using this method.The proposed approach,which eliminates the need for high neutron flux and scanning measurements,can be used for in-field imaging applications.
文摘Background:Sarcomatoid carcinoma of the ureter(SCU)is a highly aggressive and relatively uncommon malignant tumor of the urinary tract.Its frequency is quite low,and its prognosis is very bad when compared to other cancers of the urinary system.SCU clinical reports are still hard to come by.MRI and PEI/CT imaging of ureteral sarcomatoid cancer is presented in this case to promote diagnostic awareness and comprehension of the imaging characteristics of this uncommon illness.Method:The patient had ureteral sarcomatoid cancer,which was verified by pathological investigation after ureteroscopic biopsy.The patient’s clinical information,imaging results,surgical outcomes,and pathological findings were gathered.A retrospective study was carried out in combinationwith pertinent national and international literature.Results:An 84-year-old female patient was admitted for“left flank discomfort lasting over one month.”MRI revealed an irregular soft tissue mass in the middle-lower segment of the left ureter.T2-weighted imaging showed an unevenly slightly hyperintense signal.Diffusion-weighted imaging demonstrated restricted diffusion.Contrastenhanced imaging exhibited heterogeneous enhancement.PET/CT demonstrated significantly increased fluorodeoxyglucose metabolism in the mass with secondary left upper urinary tract obstruction.Concurrent findings included a solitary metastatic lesion in hepatic segment S6 and multiple lymph node metastases along the left common iliac and external iliac arteries.Preoperative diagnosis suggested a malignant tumor of the ureter.The patient underwent left nephroureteroscopy with biopsy,and the postoperative pathological diagnosis was ureteral sarcomatoid carcinoma.Conclusion:Ureteral sarcomatoid carcinoma is a rare,highly malignant,and aggressive tumor with nonspecific imaging features,typically presenting as an invasively growing mass.Diagnosis relies on postoperative pathology and immunohistochemical examination.MRI and PET/CT scans are valuable for preoperative localization and characterization,tumor staging,treatment planning,and postoperative follow-up.The prognosis is extremely negative.The main treatment option is radical surgery,although constant monitoring is necessary since early recurrence and metastases are frequent after surgery.

文摘The level of glutathione(GSH)is significantly associated with numerous pathological processes,thus,real-time detection of the GSH level is of significance for early diagnosis of GSH-related diseases.Herein,we developed in vivo second near-infrared(NIR-II)window fluorescence(FL)and ratiometric photoacoustic(RPA)dual-modality imaging of GSH using a GSH-activatable probe(LET-14).LET-14 was synthesized based on a rhodamine hybrid xanthene skeleton with a FL shielding 2,4-dinitrobenzene sulfonyl group that can be specifically cleaved by GSH,thus resulting in a markedly bathochromic-shift absorption,a 6.5-fold increase in NIR-II FL intensity(FL920)and a 13-fold increase in RPA signal(PA880/PA705)in vitro.Intriguingly,LET-14 exhibits good selectivity and sensitivity for NIR-II FL and RPA dual-modality imaging of GSH in 4T1 tumor-bearing mouse model.Our findings develop an in vivo detection tool of GSH,which has great potential in the field of cancer diagnosis.

文摘Vascular abnormalities are closely associated with the pathogenesis and progression of numerous diseases, such as thrombosis, tumors, and diabetes. Blood flow velocity serves as a critical biomarker for evaluating perfusion status. Quantitative detection of full-field blood flow variations in lesion areas holds significant scientific and clinical value for pathological studies,diagnosis, and intraoperative monitoring of related diseases. While laser speckle contrast imaging(LSCI) enables full-field blood flow visualization, its reliance on frame-based sensors necessitates handling massive data volumes, leading to inherent trade-offs among spatiotemporal resolution, real-time performance, and quantitative capabilities. Leveraging the asynchronous dynamic sensing, high temporal sampling rate, and low data redundancy of event cameras, this study proposes a quantitative blood flow imaging method termed laser speckle event imaging(LSEI). Experiments using off-the-shelf event cameras demonstrate that LSEI achieves real-time blood flow imaging with minimal computational overhead compared to frame-based LSCI. Furthermore,we investigate the relationship between event data streams and flow velocity through spatial-temporal autocorrelation analysis,enabling quantitative measurements without compromising temporal or spatial resolution. In in vivo imaging experiments of mouse ear blood flow, LSEI exhibits superior imaging details and real-time performance over conventional methods. The proposed approach holds promise as an efficient tool for diagnosis, therapeutic evaluation, and research on vascular-related diseases.

文摘The photoacoustic imaging of lipid is intrinsically constrained by the feeble nature of endogenous lipid signals,posing a persistent sensitivity challenge that demands innovative solutions.Although adopting high-efficiency excitation and detection elements may improve the imaging sensitivity to a certain extent,the application of the elements is inevitably subject to various limitations in practical applications,particularly during in vivo imaging and endoscopic imaging.In this study,we propose a multi-combinatorial approach to enhance the sensitivity of lipid photoacoustic imaging.The approach involves wavelet transform processing of one-dimensional A-line signals,gradient-based denoising of two-dimensional B-scan images,and finally,threedimensional spatial weighted averaging of the data processed by the previous two steps.This method not only significantly improves the signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)in distinguished feature regions of the image by around 10 dB,but also efficiently extracts weak signals with no distinct features in the original image.After processing with this method,the images acquired under single scanning were compared with those obtained under multiple scanning.The results showed highly consistent image features,with the structural similarity index increasing from 0.2 to 0.8,confirming the accuracy and reliability of the multi-combinatorial approach.

文摘Generative Adversarial Networks(GANs)have become valuable tools in medical imaging,enabling realistic image synthesis for enhancement,augmentation,and restoration.However,their integration into clinical workflows raises concerns,particularly the risk of subtle distortions or hallucinations that may undermine diagnostic accuracy and weaken trust in AI-assisted decision-making.To address this challenge,we propose a hybrid deep learning framework designed to detect GAN-induced artifacts in medical images,thereby reinforcing the reliability of AI-driven diagnostics.The framework integrates low-level statistical descriptors,including high-frequency residuals and Gray-Level Co-occurrence Matrix(GLCM)texture features,with high-level semantic representations extracted from a pre-trained ResNet18.This dual-stream approach enables detection of both pixel-level anomalies and structural inconsistencies introduced by GAN-based manipulation.We validated the framework on a curated dataset of 10,000 medical images,evenly split between authentic and GAN-generated samples across four modalities:MRI,CT,X-ray,and fundus photography.To improve generalizability to real-world clinical settings,we incorporated domain adaptation strategies such as adversarial training and style transfer,reducing domain shift by 15%.Experimental results demonstrate robust performance,achieving 92.6%accuracy and an F1-score of 0.91 on synthetic test data,and maintaining strong performance on real-world GAN-modified images with 87.3%accuracy and an F1-score of 0.85.Additionally,the model attained an AUC of 0.96 and an average precision of 0.92,outperforming conventional GAN detection pipelines and baseline Convolutional Neural Network(CNN)architectures.These findings establish the proposed framework as an effective and reliable solution for detecting GAN-induced hallucinations in medical imaging,representing an important step toward building trustworthy and clinically deployable AI systems.

文摘In recent years,the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence(AI)technology has enabled AI-assisted negative screening to significantly enhance physicians'efficiency through image feature analysis and multimodal data modeling,allowing them to focus more on diagnosing positive cases.Meanwhile,multispectral imaging(MSI)integrates spectral and spatial resolution to capture subtle tissue features invisible to the human eye,providing high-resolution data support for pathological analysis.Combining AI technology with MSI and employing quantitative methods to analyze multiband biomarkers(such as absorbance differences in keratin pearls)can effectively improve diagnostic specificity and reduce subjective errors in manual slide interpretation.To address the challenge of identifying negative tissue sections,we developed a discrimination algorithm powered by MSI.We demonstrated its efficacy using cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma(cSCC)as a representative case study.The algorithm achieved 100%accuracy in excluding negative cases and effectively mitigated the false-positive problem caused by cSCC heterogeneity.We constructed a multispectral image(MSI)dataset acquired at 520 nm,600 nm,and 630 nm wavelengths.Subsequently,we employed an optimized MobileViT model for tissue classification and performed comparative analyses against other models.The experimental results showed that our optimized MobileViT model achieved superior performance in identifying negative tissue sections,with a perfect accuracy rate of 100%.Thus,our results confirm the feasibility of integrating MSI with AI to exclude negative cases with perfect accuracy,offering a novel solution to alleviate the workload of pathologists.
