摘要:
A radiosurgery system describes a therapeutic radiation delivery to a target structure in a patient. The radiosurgery system treats inflammatory ocular disorders; places ocular structures in a global coordinate system based on ocular imaging; automates ocular structures inside the global coordinate system to direction of a positioning system that is directed based on ocular structures within the coordinate system; tracks and relates the position of ocular structures to the status of the radiosurgery system; determines beam energy and direction and duration of time for treatment for a specific disease to be treated and/or structures to be avoided; tracks structure of an eye; holds and fixes the eye is in place; places a fiducial is on the eye to aid in positioning; positions the eye off the refelction; and combines with other treatments and can be delivered concomitant with, prior to, or following other treatments.
摘要:
Various embodiments of medical detector systems as well as their methods of operation are disclosed. In one embodiment, one or more detectors are coupled to wearable structures for detecting at least a first tracer within a body portion. In another embodiment, one or more detectors are coupled to a wearable structure, where the detector corresponds to a CMOS chip that directly detects a first radioactive tracer.

摘要:
A method for filtering image data having at least three types of distinct regions from a selected type of region, each of the at least three types of distinct regions being characterized by a plurality of unitary image elements, the method comprising providing the image data; selecting a portion of the image data comprising at least a corresponding portion of each of the at least three types of regions; determining at least one distribution for each of the at least three types of regions in the selected portion; determining at least one function for associating each unitary image element of the selected type of region in the selected portion to another type of region of the at least three types of regions such that the at least one distribution of the selected type of regions in the selected portion is transposed into a corresponding distribution of the another type of region; and applying the at least one function to each unitary image element of the selected type of region of the selected portion to thereby provide filtered image data. Applications of the method for suppressing tagged material in virtual colonoscopy are also disclosed.
摘要:
A system for energy delivery into a patient comprises imaging means configured to image the patient and provide an image signal; an energy source (500, 510, 730, 900, 1100); and a processor configured to: receive the image signal, the image signal being related to a position of a blood vessel; determine a three dimensional coordinate of the blood vessel based on the image signal; and control the energy source based on the determined coordinate of the blood vessel. The energy source (500, 510, 730, 900, 1100) is configured to deliver ultrasound energy from external to the patient to multiple regions (1350, 1680) that contain one or more nerves, the one or more nerves being next to or around the blood vessel (1140, 1155, 1340).
