Dr. Pengfei Song from the University of Illinois and his collaborators at the Texas A&M University developed a novel high volume-rate 3D ultrasound imaging method and a device based on Fast Acoustic Steering via Tilting Electromechanical Reflectors (FASTER). This technology addresses challenges of conventional 3D ultrasound imaging like high cost and low volume scan rate. FASTER is capable of high volume rate (up to 500 Hz) large field-of-view 3D imaging with conventional 1D transducers.

Dr. Pengfei Song has developed methods of real-time SR-UMI. Current SR-UMI requires hours of data post-processing, making it impractical for clinical, diagnostic applications. Implementing advances in deep learning and parallel computing, Dr. Song's team was able to realize real-time microbubble signal extraction, separation, localization, tracking, and quantitative analysis and display. This technology has a wide range of clinical applications including but not limited to the diagnosis and characterization of many disorders including cancer, cardiovascular disease, and neurological diseases.

Researchers have developed a method that accelerates data acquisition for Fourier transform-ion cyclotron resonance (FT-ICR) mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) by ten folds while maintaining high mass and spatial resolution and accuracy. Compared to other methods in MSI data acquisition/reconstruction, this approach exploits redundancy in the data, eventually reducing the time for data collection. The primary applications of the technology will be in clinical diagnostics, drug metabolism studies and localization/characterization of biomolecules within tissue samples.

Radiological clips, or markers, are inserted at the time of biopsy to mark tumor locations, lesions and lymph nodes for consistent identification over time and multiple treatments. Prof. Michael Oelze has developed a new type of radiological clip that have a unique ultrasonic signal, acting like both a beacon and a barcode. This technology can be particularly helpful to mark multiple areas that are close together.
