Research Interests

My research on tomographic imaging is primarily focused on magnetic particle imaging. In this context, I am engaged in the study of a number of problems, including:

  • Image reconstruction
    • Multi-contrast imaging
    • Multi-patch imaging
    • Artifact reduction
  • Magnetic field generation and characterisation
  • Receive path calibration

Curriculum Vitae

Martin Möddel is a postdoctoral researcher in the group of Tobias Knopp for experimental Biomedical Imaging at the University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf and the Hamburg University of Technology. He received his PhD in physics from the Universität Siegen in 2014 on the topic of characterizing quantum correlations: the genuine multiparticle negativity as entanglement monotone. Prior to his PhD, he studied physics at the Universität Leipzig between 2005 and 2011, where he received his Diplom On the costratified Hilbert space structure of a lattice gauge model with semi-simple gauge group.

Abstract: The reconstruction of multi-patch magnetic particle imaging data requires a compromise between image quality and calibration time. While optimal image quality is ensured by the joint reconstruction approach, a system matrix needs to be acquired for each patch. One can reuse system matrices by shifting them in space, which decreases the calibration effort but leads to distortions due to field imperfections. In this work, we introduce a method for reducing displacement artifacts in the efficient joint multi-patch reconstruction. Based on the magnetic fields we propose a mapping that warps the central system matrix to capture the spatial displacement of off-center system matrices. In this way, we can maintain the low calibration time while significantly improving the image quality.
