摘要:
Systems, computer-readable media, and methods are presented that identify suspicious anomalies in a colon with higher sensitivity and at a lower false positive rate. A plurality of images of an anatomical colon is acquired. Candidate suspicious anomalies are identified in each image. The candidate suspicious anomalies across images are then compared using registration and matching. Features of candidate suspicious anomalies across images may be jointly evaluated to perform classification.
摘要:
This discloses methods and systems for the processing of medical image data of a colon acquired with an imaging device, such as a computerized tomography (“CT”) scanner and more particularly, to methods and systems for the classification of structures or objects in said medical image data. The disclosed methods and systems analyze image data for objects such as rectal tubes or stools, or for clusters of suspicious regions, and may eliminate such objects from further analysis prior to presenting potential polyps to a user.
摘要:
The application discloses computer-based apparatus and methods for analysis of images of the colon to assist in the detection of colonic polyps. The apparatus and methods include the detection, classification and display of candidate colonic folds.

摘要:
The application discloses computer-based apparatus and methods for analysis of images of the colon to assist in the detection of colonic polyps. The apparatus and methods include the classification of anomalies which are suspected colonic polyps by morphological types, and the use of information about the morphological type to assist in the determination of whether the anomaly is a polyp.
摘要:
Disclosed are methods, and associated systems comprising processors, input devices and output devices, of detecting regions of interest in a tomographic breast image. The methods may comprise: acquiring tomographic breast image data; deriving a plurality of synthetic sub-volumes from the tomographic breast image data; wherein each subvolume is defined by parallel planar top and bottom surfaces; wherein planar top and bottom surfaces of successive subvolumes are parallel to each other; and wherein a top planar surface of a sub-volume is offset from a top planar surface of a prior sub-volume, such that successive sub-volumes overlap; for each sub-volume, deriving a two-dimensional image; for each two-dimensional image, identifying regions of interest therein; deriving at least one region of interest of potential clinical interest from a plurality of identified regions of interest; and outputting information associated with at least one derived region of interest of potential clinical interest.
