Courses devoted to nuclear medicine and digital imaging techniques are collected in a c- plementary volume of NATO Science Series entitled “Physics for Medical Imaging Applications” (ISBN 978-1-4020-5650-5). Every year in autumn ESI organises the European School of Medical Physics, which covers a large spectrum of topics ranging from Medical Imaging to Rad- therapy, over a period of ?ve weeks. Thanks to the Cooperative Science and Te- nology sub-programme of the NATO Science Division, weeks two and three were replaced this year by the ASI course dedicated to “Molecular Imaging from Physical Principles to Computer Reconstruction and Practice”. This allowed the participation ofexpertsandstudentsfrom20differentcountries,withdiverseculturalbackground and professional experience (Africa, America, Asia, and Europe). A further positive outcome of NATO ASI participation is the publication of this book, which contains the lectures series contributed by speakers during the second week of the ASI.

Download or read book Computational Molecular Magnetic Resonance Imaging for Neuro oncology written by Michael O. Dada and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-07-31 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on the analytical methods and the computer programs presented in this book, all that may be needed to perform MRI tissue diagnosis is the availability of relaxometric data and simple computer program proficiency. These programs are easy to use, highly interactive and the data processing is fast and unambiguous. Laboratories (with or without sophisticated facilities) can perform computational magnetic resonance diagnosis with only T1 and T2 relaxation data. The results have motivated the use of data to produce data-driven predictions required for machine learning, artificial intelligence (AI) and deep learning for multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary research. Consequently, this book is intended to be very useful for students, scientists, engineers, the medical personnel and researchers who are interested in developing new concepts for deeper appreciation of computational magnetic resonance imaging for medical diagnosis, prognosis, therapy and management of tissue diseases.

This book was released on 2013-07-17 with total page 809 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the second half of the 20th century machine computations have played a critical role in science and engineering. Computer-based techniques have become especially important in molecular biology, since they often represent the only viable way to gain insights into the behavior of a biological system as a whole. The complexity of biological systems, which usually needs to be analyzed on different time- and size-scales and with different levels of accuracy, requires the application of different approaches, ranging from comparative analysis of sequences and structural databases, to the analysis of networks of interdependence between cell components and processes, through coarse-grained modeling to atomically detailed simulations, and finally to molecular quantum mechanics. This book provides a comprehensive overview of modern computer-based techniques for computing the structure, properties and dynamics of biomolecules and biomolecular processes. The twenty-two chapters, written by scientists from all over the world, address the theory and practice of computer simulation techniques in the study of biological phenomena. The chapters are grouped into four thematic sections dealing with the following topics: the methodology of molecular simulations; applications of molecular simulations; bioinformatics methods and use of experimental information in molecular simulations; and selected applications of molecular quantum mechanics. The book includes an introductory chapter written by Harold A. Scheraga, one of the true pioneers in simulation studies of biomacromolecules.

Download or read book Computational Methods for Multi scale Biological Modeling and Imaging written by Po Nan Li and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Advances of microscopic technologies and imaging instrumentation have enabled several major discoveries in biology, many of which would have been impossible without the assistance of computational techniques. On the other hand, while the resulting images carry abundance of information for human eyes, even more insights might be revealed by using advanced analysis or images-based modeling, which are made possible by computational approaches. In this dissertation, we demonstrate how computational methods can assist biological studies with multi-scale tools by presenting a series of projects that utilize computational tools to enhance, make use of, or extract information from images. We first propose a computational imaging method that is capable of combining diffraction and lens-based images to deliver images with higher resolution. We then discuss how a diffusion-reaction model can help us reveal the extraordinary capacity of nutrient acquisition of surface layers, a family of crystalline proteins that are found in many bacteria and most of archaea. Finally, we report a machine learning pipeline that can build an atomic protein model into a cryogenic electron microscopy map in a fraction of a minute. Taken together, these methods demonstrate how the interplay of imaging, modeling and machine learning can enable new discoveries for structural biology, and pave paths toward more automatic and efficient structure determination.
