1 Respiratory Motion Tracking in Magnetic Resonance Imaging With
Respiratory Motion Tracking in Magnetic Resonance Imaging with Pilot Tone Technology Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Mary Lenk Graduate Program in Electrical and Computer Engineering The Ohio State University 2018 Thesis Committee Dr. Lee Potter, Advisor Dr. Rizwan Ahmad 1 Copyrighted by Mary Lenk 2018 2 Abstract This thesis explores the hypothesis that Pilot Tone (PT) technology can encode respiratory induced motion of the heart to improve cardiac magnetic resonance (MR) imaging. Pilot tone technology is advantageous due to its high sampling rate to provide high temporal resolution in tracking and predicting respiration. Also, the PT signal has the potential to provide motion information without interrupting the pulse sequence to perform motion compensated scans. A prediction model is hypothesized to account for in-plane and through-plane motions due to respiration. A proof-of-concept experiment was designed to explore the ability of the PT signal to encode respiratory-induced motion. The PT signal was processed retrospectively offline and compared to a reference for respiratory motion. The two signals had a high correlation and show preliminary success for the PT to detect respiration. A linear filter was then designed to predict motion from a training phase using the same reference signal. The linear filter was successful with peak/trough locations between the prediction and the reference signal having a correlation coefficient of 0.9999 for end-expiration and end-inspiration prediction. Furthermore, a PT transmitter was designed and constructed for implementation of additional experiments. -

Hovering there I've chased the shouting wind along and flung my eager craft through footless halls of air. "Up, up the long delirious burning blue I've topped the wind-swept heights with easy grace, where never lark, or even eagle, flew; and, while with silent, lifting mind I've trod the high untrespassed sanctity of space, put out my hand and touched the face of God."

Talking Books for Children – Ausgewählte Untersuchungen Zum Hörbuchangebot Für Kinder in Australien
Talking books for children – Ausgewählte Untersuchungen zum Hörbuchangebot für Kinder in Australien Diplomarbeit im Fach Kinder- und Jugendmedien Studiengang Öffentliche Bibliotheken der Fachhochschule Stuttgart – Hochschule der Medien Daniela Kies Erstprüfer: Prof. Dr. Horst Heidtmann Zweitprüfer: Prof. Dr. Manfred Nagl Bearbeitungszeitraum: 15. Juli 2002 bis 15. Oktober 2002 Stuttgart, Oktober 2002 Kurzfassung 2 Kurzfassung Gegenstand der hier vorgestellten Arbeit ist das Hörbuchangebot für Kinder in Austra- lien. Seit Jahren haben Gesellschaften für Blinde Tonträger für die eigenen Bibliothe- ken produziert, um blinden oder sehbehinderten Menschen zu helfen. Hörmedien von kommerziellen Produzenten, in Australien ist ABC Enterprises der größte, sind in der Regel gekürzte Versionen von Büchern. Bolinda Audio arbeitet kommerziell, veröffent- licht aber nur ungekürzte Versionen. Louis Braille Audio und VoyalEyes sind Abteilun- gen von Organisationen für Blinde, die Tonträger auch an Bibliotheken verkaufen und sie sind auch im Handel erhältlich. Grundsätzlich gelten öffentliche Bibliotheken als Hauptzielgruppe und ihnen werden spezielle Dienstleistungen von den Verlagen selbst oder dem Bibliothekszulieferer angeboten. Die britische und amerikanische Konkurrenz ist im Kindertonträgerbereich besonders groß. Aus diesem Grund spezialisieren sich australische Hörbuchverlage auf die Produktion von Büchern australischer Autoren und/ oder über Australien. Bei Kindern sind die Autoren John Marsden, Paul Jennings und Andy Griffiths sehr beliebt. Stig Wemyss, ein ausgebildeter Schauspieler, hat zahl- reiche Bücher bei verschiedenen Verlagen erfolgreich gelesen. Musik bzw. Lieder wer- den auf Hörbüchern nur vereinzelt verwendet. Es gibt aber einige Gruppen, z.B. die Wiggles, und Entertainer, z.B. Don Spencer, die Lieder für Kinder schreiben und auf- nehmen. Da der Markt für Kindertonträger in Australien noch im Aufbau ist, lohnt es sich, die Entwicklungen weiter zu verfolgen.
