F.A.U.S.T dealt with reconstruction of fetal Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) data that are taken directly from the female uterus. MRI is a harmless imaging procedure, which does not use any radiation or other invasive procedures to get the images. However, the fetus is awake and will move around during the images are taken. This is where my colleges and I come into play. We try to reconstruct the fetus in 3D as if it would not move. Furthermore, I’ll try to evaluated these steps for their reliability and I researched methods that allow a doctor to draw conclusions on the reliability of each part of the resulting images.
