A method for automatically reconstituting the architecture, along a reinforcing axis, of the reinforcement of a composite material, includes acquiring images of the reinforcement of the composite material, each image being acquired along a section plane perpendicular to the reinforcing axis; for each image acquired, detecting, using a neural network, barycentre and/or the circumference of each section of the reinforcing thread; for at least one acquired reference image, assigning a tag corresponding to a reinforcing thread, to each detected barycentre or circumference; for each other acquired image, assigning, to each detected barycentre and/or each detected circumference, the tag of the corresponding barycentre in the acquired reference image; reconstituting the architecture of each reinforcing thread from each detected barycentre and/or circumference having the tag of the reinforcing thread and the position on the reinforcing axis associated with the acquired image on which the barycentre and/or the circumference has been detected.

Disclosed is an intraluminal imaging system, including an intraluminal imaging catheter or guidewire configured to be positioned within an anatomy of a patient, and a processor circuit in communication with the imaging catheter or guidewire, wherein the processor circuit is configured to receive a plurality of cross-sectional images of the anatomy from the imaging catheter or guidewire. The processor is further configured to compute, using image processing of at least one of the cross-sectional images, a value of the anatomy, estimate a cross-sectional shape of the anatomy to be circular, calculate a diameter of the anatomy based on the computed value and the estimated circular shape, and output the diameter of the anatomy to a display.

Systems and methods are described for creating three dimensional models of building objects by creating a point cloud from a plurality of input images, defining edges of the building object's surfaces represented by the point cloud, creating simplified geometries of the building object's surfaces and constructing a building model based on the simplified geometries. Input images may include ground, orthographic, or oblique images. The resultant model may be scaled according to correlation with select image types and textured.

The present invention relates to a method and system that automatically finds, segments and measures lesions in medical images following the Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumours (RECIST) protocol. More particularly, the present invention produces an augmented version of an input computed tomography (CT) scan with an added image mask for the segmentations, 3D volumetric masks and models, measurements in 2D and 3D and statistical change analyses across scans taken at different time points. According to a first aspect, there is provided a method for determining volumetric properties of one or more lesions in medical images comprising the following steps: receiving image data; determining one or more locations of one or more lesions in the image data; creating an image segmentation (i.e. mask or contour) comprising the determined one or more locations of the one or more lesions in the image data and using the image segmentation to determine a volumetric property of the lesion.

A system and method for analyzing bodily fluid include a sample holder holding a bodily fluid sample, an image capture device generating an image of the bodily fluid sample comprising a plurality of fields of view. An image processor is programmed to determine a biofilm in the bodily fluid sample from the image, determine a biofilm area or volume within each of the plurality of fields of view to form a plurality of biofilm areas, determine a total biofilm area or total biofilm volume by adding the plurality of biofilm areas, determine a first value corresponding to a comparison of the total biofilm area or the total biofilm volume and a total volume of the bodily fluid sample, and classify the first value into a classification. An analyzer, using the classification, displays an indicator on a display for indicating the classification of the biofilm within the bodily fluid sample.

The present disclosure provides methods, computing device readable medium, devices, and systems that utilize a cheek retractor and/or a mobile device holder for case assessment and/or dental treatments. One cheek retractor includes a first and a second lip holder, both including imaging markers of a predetermined size to determine a scale of teeth of a user, where each imaging marker is located a predefined distance from the remaining imaging markers, and where the lip holder is to hold a cheek away from a mouth of a user to expose teeth of the user. A mobile device holder can include elements to receive a mobile device to capture images of the patient's teeth.
