Characterization of Cardiomyopathy in a Mouse Model of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) Using Echocardiography, DCE-CT, and PET-FDG
… disease that is the result of a loss of functional dystrophin, which causes cardiomyocyte fibrosis and death, leading to cardiomyopathy. In this thesis, I have utilized dynamic contrast-enhanced computed tomography (DCE-CT), positron emission tomography-fluorodeoxyglucose (PET-FDG), …

Implementation,Validation and Application of an Automated Motion Correction Algorithm in Hepatic Perfusion CT for Image-Guided Radiotherapy
Functional imaging holds promise in guiding, evaluating and predicting efficacy of cancer treatment. Perfusion imaging provides high resolution functional information generated by applying a model to a dynamic series of contrast enhanced anatomical images. The objectives of this thesis are: 1) to …

A novel in vivo tumor oxygen profiling assay: Combining functional and molecular imaging with multivariate mathematical modeling
<p>Purpose: The objective of this study is to develop and test a novel high spatio-temporal in vivo assay to quantify tumor oxygenation and hypoxia. The assay implements a biophysical model of oxygen transport to fuse parameters acquired from in vivo functional and molecular imaging modalities. ^ …
