摘要:
A method, system, and computer software product for analyzing medical images, including obtaining image data representative of a plurality of medical images of the abnormality, each medical image corresponding to an image of the abnormality acquired at a different time relative to a time of administration of a contrast medium, each medical image including a predetermined number of voxels; partitioning each medical image into at least two groups based on the obtained image data, wherein each group corresponds to a subset of the predetermined number of voxels, and each group is associated with a temporal image pattern in the plurality of medical images; selecting, from among the temporal patterns, an enhancement temporal pattern as representative of the abnormality; and determining, based on the selected temporal pattern, a medical state of the abnormality.

摘要:
Computerized interpretation of medical images for quantitative analysis of multi-modality breast images including analysis of FFDM, 2D/3D ultrasound, MRI, or other breast imaging methods. Real-time characterization of tumors and background tissue, and calculation of image-based biomarkers is provided for breast cancer detection, diagnosis, prognosis, risk assessment, and therapy response. Analysis includes lesion segmentation, and extraction of relevant characteristics (textural/morphological/kinetic features) from lesion-based or voxel-based analyses. Combinations of characteristics in several classification tasks using artificial intelligence is provided. Output in terms of 1D, 2D or 3D distributions in which an unknown case is identified relative to calculations on known or unlabeled cases, which can go through a dimension-reduction technique. Output to 3D shows relationships of the unknown case to a cloud of known or unlabeled cases, in which the cloud demonstrates the structure of the population of patients with and without the disease.

摘要:
A system and method of dynamically allocating signal acquisition bandwidth in magnetic resonance imaging systems. The use of high spatial and high spectral resolution in MRI imaging can improve the clinical usefulness of the images. However, during uptake and washout of contrast agents, the use of high spatial and high spectral resolution results in important information being missed. Dynamic allocation of MRI signal acquisition bandwidth allows the use of high temporal resolution during contrast agent uptake and washout and high spatial and spectral resolution during periods of slower morphology resulting in images containing additional data than in conventional MRI protocols.
