Dynamic tracking of a magnetic micro-roller using ultrasound phase analysis
No full textMicrorobots (MRs) have attracted significant interest for their potentialities in diagnosis and non-invasive intervention in hard-to-reach body areas. Fine control of biomedical MRs requires real-time feedback on their position and configuration. Ultrasound (US) imaging stands as a mature and advantageous technology for MRs tracking, but it suffers from disturbances due to low contrast resolution. To overcome these limitations and make US imaging suitable for monitoring and tracking MRs, we propose a US contrast enhancement mechanism for MR visualization in echogenic backgrounds (e.g., tissue). Our technique exploits the specific acoustic phase modulation produced by the MR characteristic motions. By applying this principle, we performed real-time visualization and position tracking of a magnetic MR rolling on a lumen boundary, both in static flow and opposing flow conditions, with an average error of 0.25 body-lengths. Overall, the reported results unveil countless possibilities to exploit the proposed approach as a robust feedback strategy for monitoring and tracking biomedical MRs in-vivo.sponsorship: This work is part of the project that has received funding from the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation program under the Marie Sklodowska-Curie Grant MAMBO, Agreement No. 894425.

No full text(1948-2018) Donald Mitchell Crawford, Sr. (“DC”), musician, author, and educator, was born on May 24, 1948, and was a lifelong resident of Birmingham, AL. His father and mother owned and operated “C & S Charter Tours Bus Company,” the first black-owned bus company in the state of Alabama. Crawford was a 1966 graduate of Western Olin High School in Birmingham, AL. Crawford was an outstanding drum major, playing first chair alto saxophone under the tutelage of the late Amos F. Gordon, Sr. After high school, he received a music scholarship to Alabama State University (ASU) where he earned both his Bachelor’s and Master’s Degrees in Music Education and was later inducted into the “School of Music Hall of Fame” at ASU. He was the youngest ever inducted into the Alabama Jazz Hall of Fame. He was a veteran of the U.S. Army and performed with the 291 st and 283rd Army Band in Fort Bennett, GA. DC was Band Director at Jackson Olin High School and taught in the Birmingham School System for over thirty-five years. His love for music and performing lead him after his retirement to serve as Band Director for Miles College.
Crawford is the author of “The Wheels of the Birmingham Civil Rights Movement.” This book chronicles the lives of his late father and mother, Worcy and Christine Pride Crawford, and the role he and the company played in the Birmingham Civil Rights Movement
