Optical tomographic imaging of biological specimen bases its reliability on the combination of both accurate experimental measures and advanced computational techniques. In general, due to high scattering and absorption in most of the tissues, multi view geometries are required to reduce diffuse halo and blurring in the reconstructions. Scanning processes are used to acquire the data but they inevitably introduces perturbation, negating the assumption of aligned measures. Here we propose an innovative, registration free, imaging protocol implemented to image a human tumor spheroid at mesoscopic regime. The technique relies on the calculation of autocorrelation sinogram and object autocorrelation, finalizing the tomographic reconstruction via a three dimensional Gerchberg Saxton algorithm that retrieves the missing phase information. Our method is conceptually simple and focuses on single image acquisition, regardless of the specimen position in the camera plane. We demonstrate increased deep resolution abilities, not achievable with the current approaches, rendering the data alignment process obsolete.

Label-free imaging approaches seek to simplify and augment histopathologic assessment by replacing the current practice of staining by dyes to visualize tissue morphology with quantitative optical measurements. Quantitative phase imaging (QPI) operat
es with visible/UV light and thus provides a resolution matched to current practice. Here we introduce and demonstrate confocal QPI for label-free imaging of tissue sections and assess its utility for manual histopathologic inspection. Imaging cancerous and normal adjacent human breast and prostate, we show that tissue structural organization can be resolved with high spatial detail comparable to conventional H&E stains. Our confocal QPI images are found to be free of halo, solving this common problem in QPI. We further describe and apply a virtual imaging system based on Finite-Difference Time-Domain (FDTD) calculations to quantitatively compare confocal with wide-field QPI methods and explore performance limits using numerical tissue phantoms.
Acoustic-resolution optoacoustic microscopy (AR-OAM) retrieves anatomical and functional contrast from living tissues at depths not reachable with optical microscopy. The imaging performance of AR-OAM has been advanced with image reconstruction algor
ithms providing high lateral resolution ultimately limited by acoustic diffraction. In this work, we suggest a new model-based framework efficiently exploiting scanning symmetries for high-resolution reconstruction of AR-OAM images. The model accurately accounts for the spatial impulse response and large detection bandwidth of a spherical polyvinylidene difluoride sensor, which facilitates significantly outperforming synthetic aperture focusing technique commonly employed in AR-OAM image reconstruction in terms of image contrast and resolution. Furthermore, reconstructions based on L1-norm regularization enabled resolving structures indistinguishable with other methods, which was confirmed by numerical simulations as well as phantom and in vivo experiments. The achieved performance demonstrates the applicability of AR-OAM as a super-resolution imaging method capable of breaking through the limits imposed by acoustic diffraction, thus opening unprecedented capabilities for the microscopic interrogation of optically opaque tissues in preclinical and clinical studies.
Positron emission tomography, like many other tomographic imaging modalities, relies on an image reconstruction step to produce cross-sectional images from projection data. Detection and localization of the back-to-back annihilation photons produced
by positron-electron annihilation defines the trajectories of these photons, which when combined with tomographic reconstruction algorithms, permits recovery of the distribution of positron-emitting radionuclides. Here we produce cross-sectional images directly from the detected coincident annihilation photons, without using a reconstruction algorithm. Ultra-fast radiation detectors with a resolving time averaging 32 picoseconds measured the difference in arrival time of pairs of annihilation photons, localizing the annihilation site to 4.8 mm. This is sufficient to directly generate an image without reconstruction and without the geometric and sampling constraints that normally present for tomographic imaging systems.
Precise quantitative delineation of tumor hypoxia is essential in radiation therapy treatment planning to improve the treatment efficacy by targeting hypoxic sub-volumes. We developed a combined imaging system of positron emission tomography (PET) an
d electron para-magnetic resonance imaging (EPRI) of molecular oxygen to investigate the accuracy of PET imaging in assessing tumor hypoxia. The PET/EPRI combined imaging system aims to use EPRI to precisely measure the oxygen partial pressure in tissues. This will evaluate the validity of PET hypoxic tumor imaging by (near) simultaneously acquired EPRI as ground truth. The combined imaging system was constructed by integrating a small animal PET scanner (inner ring diameter 62 mm and axial field of view 25.6 mm) and an EPRI subsystem (field strength 25 mT and resonant frequency 700 MHz). The compatibility between the PET and EPRI subsystems were tested with both phantom and animal imaging. Hypoxic imaging on a tumor mouse model using $^{18}$F-fluoromisonidazole radio-tracer was conducted with the developed PET/EPRI system. We report the development and initial imaging results obtained from the PET/EPRI combined imaging system.
T2-Shuffling reconstructs multiple sharp T2-weighted images from a single volumetric fast spin-echo (3D-FSE) scan. Wave-CAIPI is a parallel imaging technique that achieves good reconstruction at high accelerations through additional sinusoidal gradie
nts that induce a voxel spreading effect in the readout direction to better take advantage of coil-sensitivity information. In this work, the Shuffling model in T2-Shuffling is augmented with wave-encoding to achieve higher acceleration capability. The resulting Wave-Shuffling approach is applied to 3D-FSE and Magnetization-Prepared Rapid Gradient-Echo (MPRAGE) to achieve rapid, 1 mm-isotropic resolution, time-resolved structural imaging.
