This Project Grant award of $503,966 from the National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering (NIBIB) under the Discovery and Applied Research for Technological Innovations to Improve Human Health program (CFDA 93.286) will support research to optimize and validate an AI model that screens for arteriovenous fistula (AVF) stenosis in dialysis patients using sound files from a digital stethoscope. The overarching goal is to determine if an AI-based screening approach leveraging...
The National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering (NIBIB) awarded a $1,758,475 Project Grant under the Discovery and Applied Research for Technological Innovations to Improve Human Health program (CFDA 93.286) to The General Hospital Corporation, doing business as Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH), to develop next-generation in-vivo diffusion MRI (DMRI) technologies. The project aims to overcome key challenges with current DMRI methods, including lack of sensitivity to detect...
This federal Project Grant award, valued at $594,891 and provided by the National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering (NIBIB) under CFDA 93.286 "Discovery and Applied Research for Technological Innovations to Improve Human Health", aims to develop deep-learning anthropomorphic model observers (AMOs) as a substitute for human observers in studies assessing image quality for clinical diagnostic performance. The key objectives are to create AMOs that can accurately...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering (NIBIB), under the Discovery and Applied Research for Technological Innovations to Improve Human Health program (CFDA 93.286), provides $449,122.00 to Trustees of Dartmouth College to develop a small, non-invasive device capable of mapping the intracranial space and differentiating ischemic from hemorrhagic stroke. The award aims to validate the feasibility of this novel approach to non-invasive...
This $1,336,000 Project Grant awarded by the National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering (NIBIB) under the CFDA 93.286 "Discovery and Applied Research for Technological Innovations to Improve Human Health" program supports the development of a rapid, motion-robust, and low-gadolinium MRI technology for pediatric brain tumors. The key objectives are to (1) develop cutting-edge technologies for rapid, motion-robust, and quantitative MRI scans to reduce sedation needs...
This $884,573 federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering (NIBIB), under the Discovery and Applied Research for Technological Innovations to Improve Human Health program (CFDA 93.286), is supporting the development of a fast, comprehensive brain MRI technique. The goal is to reduce exam duration by roughly three-fold while capturing quantitative and qualitative MRI contrasts, as well as gadolinium-based enhancement. The project is being led by...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering (NIBIB), under the Discovery and Applied Research for Technological Innovations to Improve Human Health program (CFDA 93.286), provides $1,244,260.00 to New York University (NYU) to develop an advanced interferometric diffuse optics (IDO) system for quantitatively and specifically measuring cerebral blood flow. The goal is to create a system that can improve the signal-to-noise ratio and channel...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering (NIBIB), under the CFDA 93.286 "Discovery and Applied Research for Technological Innovations to Improve Human Health" program, provides $641,063 to develop a dynamic, customizable, vendor-neutral patient projection data library and virtual imaging trial (VIT) software platform (DICOM-CTPD-VIT). This platform will enable the generation of a diverse range of imaging conditions, including...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Office of the Director under the Trans-NIH Research Support program (CFDA 93.310) aims to develop an AI-augmented, image-based hemodynamic modeling platform to enhance cardiovascular research and healthcare. The $150,000 award, effective September 1, 2024 through May 31, 2028, will be used by the University of Notre Dame to automate the transformation of medical images into 3D geometries for computational fluid...
