Summary on Grant Application Form |
This EPSRC Overseas Travel Grant will start a new international collaboration between the Department of Medical Physics and Bioengineering at the University College London (UCL) and LabTAU of the Institut National de la Santé et de la Recherche Médicale (INSERM; Lyon, France). The collaboration will result in the development of the world's first open-source Matlab toolbox for acquiring three-dimensional (3D) ultrasound images, and the application of this toolbox to two specific problems: validation of numeric models of ultrasound wave propagation through heterogeneous biological tissue, and visualisation of High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) lesion formation through ultrasonically-induced Lorentz force measurements.
