  2. P4 University College London – Computer Science (UCL) UCL has an annual turnover of £500M, academic and research staff totaling 4,000, and over 3,000 PhD research students. The department of Computer Science has over 50 academic staff with specialist groups involved in Imaging Science, Computer Graphics, BioInformatics.Intelligent Systems Networking, and Software Systems Engineering. CMIC In 2005, the Centre for Medical Imaging (CMIC) was formed jointly between Computer Science and the department of Medical Physics & BioEngineering to create a world class grouping combining excellence in medical imaging sciences withinnovative computational methodology, finding application in biomedical research and in healthcare. The research of the group focuses on detailed structural and functional analysis in neurosciences, imaging to guide interventions, image analysis in drug discovery, imaging in cardiology and imaging in oncology with a strong emphasis on e-science technologies. The Centre has very close links with the Faculty of Clinical Sciences, the Faculty of Life Sciences and associated Clinical Institutes, in particular the Institute of Neurology,the Institute of Child Health and the Centre for Neuroimaging Techniques (CNT), • Main tasks attributed to the organisation: The main tasks for P4 UCL are WP4 with some input into WP3, WP6 and WP7. We will contribute mathematical and computational techniques for the development of forward and inverse modeling in optical tomography in the diffuse regime particularly using priors, and to the simulation of new imaging devices and the analysis of clinical data.

  3. Objective 4.1 : To develop FMT inversion utilizing XCT image priors without strong anatomy function correlations. Progress: • Developed structured priors orientating the reconstructed FMT images to have level sets parallel to those of XCT image • Developed information theoretic priors orientating the reconstructed FMT images to have maximum joint entropy with the XCT image • Initial tests on simulated 3D images of mouse from a realistic atlas Significant Results • Reconstructions in 3D depend only linearly on total number of pixels in reconstructed image and independent of the number of pixels in data. Deviations from Annex 1 • None Failure to meet critical objectives • Not Applicable Use of resources • No deviation from work

Example: Cylinder with inclusions Target object: cylinder with embedded inhomogeneities Radius: 25 mm, height: 50 mm Background: ma=0.01 mm-1, ms=1 mm-1 Red: Inclusions with increased absorption Blue: Inclusions with increased scattering Measurements: 80 source locations, 80 detector locations, arranged in 5 rings at elevations -20, -10, 0, +10, +20 Data: log amplitude and phase for source modulated at 100MHz Multiplicative Gaussian noise 0.5% FEM mesh: 83142 nodes, 444278 4-noded tetrahedra Reconstruction grid: 80x80x80 Cross sections through target for planes z=16, z=60 and y=40 ma ms

Progress: • Developed non-linear reconstruction method for attenuation making use of Louiville transformation from diffusion to Schrodinger equation. Significant Results • Reconstruction of attenuation from steady-state data is dependent on good estimates of spatially varying scatter.
