In-vivo estimation of electrical properties of biological tissues is relevant in several medical applications, ranging from hyperthermia treatment planning to dosimetry. In this contribution, we propose a novel inverse scattering approach addressing this problem. In particular, the approach is based on inverting phaseless boldsymbol{B} {1} {+} measurements acquired in a magnetic resonance scanner. Moreover, it takes advantage of an innovative use of the segmented anatomy model derived by magnetic resonance images in order to regularize the inverse scattering problem.

Abstract

In this contribution, we propose a novel inverse scattering approach addressing this problem. In particular, the approach is based on inverting phaseless boldsymbol{B} {1} {+} measurements acquired in a magnetic resonance scanner. Moreover, it takes advantage of an innovative use of the segmented anatomy model derived by magnetic resonance images in order to regularize the inverse scattering problem.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
