Congratulations to Rowzat for receiving the GRG award !

August 21, 2017 by shawn xiang

TRUE lab graduate student, Rowzat Faiz, has recently received a Graduate Research Guide (GRG) award  from The Office of Undergraduate Research (O.U.R.) at The University of Oklahoma. Rowzat will work with Prof. Xiang to add a research experience to the course ECE 2713 Digital Signals and Filtering. Congrats Rowzat!

Rowzat Faiz is a PhD student in TRUE lab. She obtained both her B.Sc. and Master’s Degree from Purdue University.  Now she is focusing on the development of X-ray-induced acoustic computed tomography (XACT) imaging system.

OU-OUHSC Biomedical Engineering Symposium Winners!

April 5, 2017 by shawn xiang

Pratik Samant, one of our amazing BME graduate students, won the poster award at the OU-OUHSC Biomedical Engineering Symposium on March 24, 2017! There were 210 registrations, and he was selected from among 58 abstracts, based on a review of the abstract and independent judges who met the students at their posters and asked questions.

TRUE lab has 3 posters (two from undergraduate students, Elijah Robertson and Nicklas Dang) in the symposium, two of the posters have been selected as ten finalists for the competition.

From left to right: Darrin Akins, Jakob Townsend, Pratik Samant, Salma Mahzoon, Michael Detamore, Lei Ding.

X-ray-induced acoustic computed tomography (XACT) with an ultrasound ring-array has been developed !

February 7, 2017 by shawn xiang

This new study, lead by Dr. Shanshan Tang, developed and tested a new system that offers rapid and high resolution XACT imaging which has been accepted for publication in Applied Physics Letters. The 5 MHz ultrasound array with 128 transducers and multi-channel parallel data receiver provides full tomographic imaging capability at speed up to 25 fps and 138μm resolutions. The system and methodology provided in this letter has potential for dynamic imaging of physiological activity, and for noninvasive clinical diagnosis. We hope the system configuration described in this letter will promote the XACT technique towards future clinical practice.

Congratulations to Dr. Xiang for receiving the IBEST-OUHSC seed grant !

February 7, 2017 by shawn xiang

Prof. Xiang has recently received a seed grant from The University of Oklahoma Institute for Biomedical Engineering, Science, and Technology (IBEST) in partnership with the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center (OUHSC). Dr. Liangzhong Xiang at OU Norman and Dr. Kelly Stratton (Urologic Oncologist) from OUHSC are developing a new medical imaging device, called Photoacoustic Cystoscope, for prostate cancer (PCa) imaging and image-guided biopsy. It will help identify and monitor patients who need no further treatment, as well as aid in reducing false negative results due to poor cancer targeting of transrectal ultrasound biopsy needles.
