A deep study about the influence of the different steps of a speckle tracking (ST) pipeline in Echocardiography has been published in the international journal Medical Image Analysis: "Influence of Ultrasound Speckle Tracking Strategies for Motion and Strain Estimation".

A new software for MRI reconstruction has been made available at http://www.lpi.tel.uva.es/~jroyval, in the software section.

This package implements with the GW-CS reconstruction method described in [1] with the posterior improvements of the Jacobian Weighted temporal Total Variation (JW-tTV) introduced in [2].

The LPI was present in 2016 IEEE International Symposium on Biomedical Imaging (ISBI), hold last April at Prague. ISBI is a joint initiative of the IEEE Signal Processing Society (SPS) and IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society (EMBS).  Four communication were sent to the conference, all of the presented in oral sessions.

The paper entitled "Jacobian Weighted Temporal Total Variation for Motion Compensated Compressed Sensing Reconstruction of Dynamic MRI" has been accepted for publication at Magnetic Resonance in Medicine and it is currently in press.

The thesis "Machine Learning and Stochastic Modelling Approaches for Biomedical Signal Analysis", authored by Diego Martín-Martínez and supervised by Juan Pablo Casaseca and Carlos Alberola-López has been recently defended. We thank all the member of the committee, specially Dr. Savino, Dr McClean and Dr. Laguna for finding room in their tights agendas for this event. More information about the thesis in this link.
