摘要:
Displaying breast ultrasound information on an interactive user interface is described, the user interface being useful in adjunctive ultrasound mammography environments and/or ultrasound-only mammography environments. Bilateral comparison is facilitated by a pairwise display of thick-slice images corresponding to analogous slab-like subvolumes in the left and right breasts. Coronal thick-slice imaging and convenient navigation on and among coronal thick-slice images is described. In one preferred embodiment, a nipple marker is displayed the coronal thick-slice image representing a projection of a nipple location thereupon. A convenient breast icon is also displayed including a cursor position indicator variably disposed thereon in a manner that reflects a relative position between the cursor and the nipple marker. Preferably, the breast icon is configured to at least roughly resemble a clock face, the center of the clock face representing the nipple marker location. Bookmark-centric and CAD-marker-centric navigation within and among thick-slice images is also described.

摘要:
Methods, systems, and related computer program products for non-invasive spectrophotometric monitoring of an optical property of a medium are described. Respective light portions are propagated through respective at least partially non-overlapping subregions of the medium during each of a calibration interval and a subsequent monitoring interval. Detections of the light portions acquired during the calibration interval are processed to compute at least one algorithm compensation that causes a first result related to the optical property for the first subregion to be substantially equal to a second result related to the optical property for the second subregion. Subsequently, detections of respective light portions acquired during the monitoring interval are processed in conjunction with the at least one algorithm compensation to compute a monitoring result for the optical property. Advantages can include a reduction in the number of sources/detectors required and/or an obviation of symmetry requirements in source/detector layout.
摘要:
Methods, systems, and related computer program products for the non-invasive spectrophotometric monitoring of an optical property of a tissue volume are described. Multiple optical signals having different modulation frequencies are introduced into the tissue volume simultaneously and on a continuous basis throughout the monitoring session. Multiple optical signal portions incident upon each of a plurality of optical detectors are detected and separated based on their modulation frequency. Amplitude and phase signals corresponding to each optical signal portion are extracted and processed to determine the optical property of the tissue volume. In one preferred embodiment, a first optical detector includes an aperture having a central area, a first edge positioned nearer to a first optical source than the central area, and a second edge positioned farther from the first optical source than the central area. The first and second edges are each curved concavely toward the first optical source.

Systems, methods, and related computer program products for non-invasive NIR spectrophotometric (NIRS) monitoring of total blood hemoglobin levels and/or other blood constituent levels based on a hybrid combination of phase modulation spectrophotometry (PMS) and continuous wave spectrophotometry (CWS) are described. PMS-based measurements including both amplitude and phase information used in the determination of a non-pulsatile component of an absorption property for each of at least three distinct wavelengths are processed to compute PMS-derived intermediate information at least partially representative of a scattering characteristic. CWS-based measurements including amplitude information is processed in conjunction with the PMS-derived intermediate information to compute a pulsatile component of the absorption property. A metric representative of at least one chromophore level, such as the total blood hemoglobin level, is computed from the pulsatile component of the absorption property at the at least three wavelengths and displayed on an output display.
摘要:
This specification describes a novel user interface and method for viewing mammograms together with 3D breast ultrasound images for breast cancer screening. The user identifies a region of interest, in one modality and the processing system calculates the location in the other modality. Visual aids such as icons can be used to display the calculated location in the other modality in cases where the other modality is viewed on a separate device. In cases where an integrated display device is used that displays both modalities, the visual aid can be an ROI marker on the target modality. The user interface and method for viewing has been found to greatly decrease the tedium and likelihood for errors when compared with known displaying viewing techniques.

A control method and device for multi-carrier frequency power amplifier resources includes service data which is first distributed to a primary carrier frequency board; if it is determined that channel resource blocks of the primary carrier frequency board are all distributed with the service data, the rest service data is distributed to a secondary carrier frequency board according to a sequence of time slots, and if the primary carrier frequency board is not completely distributed with the service data, skip this step; after the service data is scheduled, an energy-saving operation may be started for the primary carrier frequency board in the time slot in which a carrier frequency can be turned off and for the secondary carrier frequency board, so as to eliminate static power consumption of the power amplifier.
