RESEARCH EXPERIENCE










Master Researches, Tehran University of Medical Science, Department of Medical Physics and Engineering

Advisor: Prof. Dr. Hamidreza Saligherad

Project 1: Research on “Stochastic Process”. At this project, our group (QMISG-Quantitative Medical Imaging Systems Group-
http://qmisg.com/ ) works to integrate practical MRI techniques in the radiation therapy (RT) process, including protocol optimization, image evaluation,  and integration into planning.


 MRI provides non-invasive imaging of the human body with excellent soft-tissue contrast, which is valuable for RT treatment planning and post-RT assessment.


Project 2: Research on “RF Coil Design”. In this project, we (QMISG) simulate MRI- and NMR Coils.

M.Sc. Thesis on “Simulation Platform for Magnetic Resonance Fingerprinting (MRF)".
 April 2018-2020










 

First Master Thesis, AUT, Department of Energy Engineering and Physics

Advisor: Prof. Dr. Hussein Abbasi

                                                         


M.Sc. Thesis on “Noise Role in Dephasing and its Influence on Image Quality in Diffusion Magnetic Resonance Imaging (DMRI)”.
In this thesis, diffusion dephasing is examined through the Langevin equation. That means randomness regarding particle positions and magnetic field amplitude are taken into account through white Gaussian noise. Then, the Langevin equation is analytically solved with and without the effect of particle inertia when randomness is solely due to the
random position of particles. It is shown that when the inertia of particles is considered
the signal amplitude can be achieved with higher accuracy.
