    摘要: Disclosed herein is a medical system (100, 300). The execution of machine executable instructions (120) causes a computational system to (104): receive (200) an overview image (128), receive (202) object locators (130) in response to inputting the overview image into a first neural network (122), construct (204) an object sub image (132) using the object locator, receive (206) object positional data (134) in response to inputting the object sub image for each of the multiple predetermined objects into an object specific neural network (124), construct (208) multiple search images (136) using the object positional data for the multiple predetermined objects, receive (210) locator data (138) descriptive of a position of an item in response to inputting each of the multiple search images into an item specific neural network (126), detect (212) a safety state (140) by comparing the locator data and the object positional data of each of the predetermined objects with respect to a predetermined criterion; and provide (214) a warning signal (144) if the safety state is detected

    摘要: The invention relates to a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system 1 comprising a magnet unit 4 that carries out an MRI sequence for generating MRI signals of a patient 2, excites a resonator device 8, 38 attached to the patient or to an object not being the patient and comprising a resonator element having piezoelectric properties and a coil element connected to the resonator element, and receives resonator device signals from the resonator device. A processor 5 reconstructs an MR image of the patient based on the MRI signals and determines a property of the patient or the object, to which the resonator device is attached, based on the received resonator device signals. This allows determining the property of the patient or the object by the MRI system without necessarily requiring, besides the resonator device, additional hardware, i.e. the property can be determined without requiring sophisticated additional hardware.

    摘要: A computer-implemented method is provided for estimating a weight of a patient when supported on a patient table. Optical image data and depth image data are obtained and patient body keypoints are extracted from the optical image data. A first frame is selected which comprises an image of the patient table, by selecting a frame in which no body keypoints are present in the optical image data. A second frame is selected of the patient on the table, by selecting a frame with patient body keypoints and with little or no movement. A patient volume is obtained based on a difference between the depth image data for the first and second frame (or depth data at those times) and the patient weight is estimated from the determined patient volume.

    摘要: The invention provides for a magnetic resonance imaging system (100) which comprise a magnet (104) and a magnetic field gradient generator (110, 112) for generating a gradient magnetic field within an imaging zone (108). The gradient magnetic field is aligned with a predetermined direction. The magnetic resonance imaging system further comprise a memory (134, 136) for storing machine executable instructions (150, 152, 154), a pre-calculated magnetic resonance fingerprinting dictionary (144), and pulse sequence instructions (140). The pulse sequence instructions cause the magnetic resonance imaging system to acquire the magnetic resonance data according to a magnetic resonance fingerprinting technique. The magnetic resonance fingerprinting technique encodes the magnetic resonance data as slices (125). The pre-calculated magnetic resonance fingerprinting dictionary contains a listing of calculated magnetic resonance signals in response to execution of the pulse sequence instructions for a set of predetermined substances. Execution of the machine executable instructions causes a processor (130) controlling the magnetic resonance imaging system to: acquire (300) the magnetic resonance data by controlling the magnetic resonance imaging system with pulse sequence instructions; divide (302) the magnetic resonance data into a set of slices; calculate (304) the abundance of each of the set of predetermined substances within each of the set of slices by comparing the magnetic resonance data for each of the set of slices with the pre-calculated magnetic resonance fingerprinting dictionary; and calculate (306) a magnetic resonance fingerprint chart by plotting abundance of each of the set of predetermined substances within each of the set of slices as a function of position along the predetermined direction.
