Multi-modality and Hybrid 3-D Ultrasound/Photoacoustic Imaging System Project

Richard Prager

Principal Investigator

Professor Richard Prager is the dean of the Department of Engineering, University of Cambridge, and received a Ph.D. in Information Engineering from University of Cambridge. He is the founder of the field of medical imaging of the Department of Engineering at University of Cambridge, and also one of the main developers of the free-arm three-dimensional ultrasound system Stradx and Strad-win.

The project focuses on voice processing and control applications, computer vision and robotics, and medical imaging. The guiding principle for all research in the laboratory is that a well-designed engineering system must be based on a sound mathematical model. The main research studies include 3D ultrasound acquisition and visualization in CT, ultrasound deconvolution and stiffness imaging, and bone cortical thickness estimation, 3D models from uncalibrated images, object recognition, human-machine interface, visual tracking and localization, and augmented reality, continuous speech recognition and transcription, speech dialogue systems, synthesis and coding, and statistical machine translation.


This project will design and develop new reconstruction methods for the next generation of medical ultrasound imaging systems to further promote the development of clinical medicine and the progress of science and technology
