Molecular Imaging and the ‘Martinos Galaxy’: Jacob Hooker shows us the stars
The Martinos Center’s Jacob Hooker is standing in front of a crowded room in a gleaming building in Boston’s Seaport District. On a screen above him is an image with seemingly countless circles of different colors and sizes. Big green ones. Small blue ones. And so on. He refers to the image as...
Estimating Tumor Boundaries in Cancer Surgery With Fluorescence Lifetime Imaging
Cancer is the second leading cause of death in the United States, with an estimated 1,762,450 new cases diagnosed and 606,880 deaths in 2019 alone. While important advances have been made in the development of treatments for cancer, including surgery, a number of challenges remain. Not least: sur...
Berkin Bilgic
MRI has demonstrated ability to provide exquisite contrast for non-invasive imaging. What limits its efficiency and sensitivity are the tradeoffs between scan time, resolution and signal-to-noise ratio. Dr. Bilgic's research is devoted to breaking this stalemate by developing new acquisition and ...
