EEG electrode localization with 3D iPhone scanning using point-cloud electrode selection (PC-ES).

Electroencephalography source imaging (ESI) is a valuable tool in clinical evaluation for epilepsy patients but is underutilized in part due to sensitivity to anatomical modeling errors. Accurate localization of scalp electrodes is instrumental to ESI, but existing localization devices are expensive and not portable. As a result, electrode localization challenges further impede access to ESI, particularly in inpatient and intensive care settings.

Novel Electrode Placement in Electrical Bioimpedance-Based Stroke Detection: Effects on Current Penetration and Injury Characterization in a Finite Element Model.

Objective: Reducing time-to-treatment and providing acute management in stroke are essential for patient recovery. Electrical bioimpedance (EBI) is an inexpensive and non-invasive tissue measurement approach that has the potential to provide novel continuous intracranial monitoring-something not possible in current standard-of-care. While extensive previous work has evaluated the feasibility of EBI in diagnosing stroke, high-impedance anatomical features in the head have limited clinical translation.

A bioimpedance-based monitor for real-time detection and identification of secondary brain injury.

Secondary brain injury impacts patient prognosis and can lead to long-term morbidity and mortality in cases of trauma. Continuous monitoring of secondary injury in acute clinical settings is primarily limited to intracranial pressure (ICP); however, ICP is unable to identify essential underlying etiologies of injury needed to guide treatment (e.g.

Phantom Studies of Fused-Data TREIT Using Only Biopsy-Probe Electrodes.

Transrectal electrical impedance tomography (TREIT) is a novel imaging modality being developed for prostate biopsy guidance and cancer characterization. We describe a novel fused-data TREIT (fd-TREIT) system and approach developed to improve imaging robustness and evaluate it on challenging clinically-representative phantoms. The new approach incorporates 8 electrodes (in 2 rows) on a biopsy probe (BP) and 12 electrodes on the face of a transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) probe and includes a biopsy gun, instrument tracking, 3D-printed needle guide, and EIT hardware and software.
