We simply returned from a successful, invigorating, and inspiring IEEE International Ultrasonics Symposium (IUS) held in Washington, DC at the Omni Shoreham Hotel. Some photograph highlights of our interest announced beneath.

Joshua Shubert presented his poster entitled "Photoacoustic Based Visual Servoing of Needle Tips to Improve Biopsy on Obese Patients"

Derek Allman presented his poster entitled "A Machine Learning Method to Place and Remove Reflection Artifacts in Photoacoustic Channel Data"

Prof. Bell served on the 2017 IUS Organizing Commission equally the Communications Chair. She received a certificate  from the UFFC Guild President (Clark Nguyen, left) and Vice President for Ultrasonics (Jafar Saniie, right) in appreciation of her service.

Michelle Graham (photograph unavailable) also presented her poster entitled "Theoretical Application of Short-Lag Spatial Coherence to Photoacoustic Imaging."

PULSE Lab members additionally collaborated to contribute to the following papers:

  • The UltraSound ToolBox
  • Coherence Beamforming and its Applications to the Difficult-to-Image Patient
