Curriculum Vitae

Tobias Knopp received his Diplom degree in computer science in 2007 and his PhD in 2010, both from the University of Lübeck with highest distinction. For his PHD on the tomographic imaging method Magnetic Particle Imaging (MPI) he was awarded with the Klee award from the DGBMT (VDE) in 2011. From 2010 until 2011 he led the MAPIT project at the University of Lübeck and published the first scientific book on MPI. In 2011 he joined Bruker Biospin to work on the first commercially available MPI system. From 2012 until 2014 he worked at Thorlabs in the field of Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) as a software developer. In 2014 he has been appointed as Professor for experimental Biomedical Imaging at the University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf and the Hamburg University of Technology.

Abstract: {Magnetic Particle Imaging} is a promising imaging technique using iron-oxide nanoparticle tracers. The spatial distribution of these particles can be determined by solving a system of linear equations. This reconstruction is based on a system function that either has to be measured or can be calculated with given information about scanner topology and particle characteristics. This paper introduces a new approach combining both possibilities. A Magnetic Particle Spectrometer is used to obtain a hybrid system function. Furthermore, we will show that the hybrid system function can be successfully used for 1D-image reconstruction and potentially is an alternative to the measurement-based system function.
