Provided are a medical image processing device, a medical image processing method, a program, and a medical image display system that reduce the amount of movement of a line of sight in a case in which a medical image is observed. A first medical image of a subject is displayed. A second medical image including an anatomical feature structure closest to a designated position in the first medical image is acquired. The first medical image and the second medical image are registered. A region including the identified anatomical feature structure is cut out from the second medical image based on a registration result to generate a second partial region image. The second partial region image is displayed to be superimposed on the first medical image.

An exemplary wearable brain interface system includes a head-mountable component and a control system. The head-mountable component includes an array of photodetectors that includes a photodetector comprising a single-photon avalanche diode (SPAD) and a fast-gating circuit configured to arm and disarm the SPAD. The control system is for controlling a current drawn by the array of photodetectors.

Techniques are disclosed for measuring the corpus callosum volume of a fetus using magnetic resonance imaging. A scanogram of a fetus is acquired, and a detection area is determined using the corpus callosum position of the fetus in the scanogram. Magnetic resonance scanning is performed on the detection area to obtain a diffusion weighted image, with a gradient direction that is orthogonal or normal to an extending direction of fiber bundles of the corpus callosum. A fetal head image is cropped in the diffusion weighted image, and a predetermined threshold is applied to obtain an image including pixels having a brightness value that is greater than the threshold. Image processing is performed on the binarized image, with the largest region therein being identified as the corpus callosum, and the sum of voxel dimensions associated with the signal of the largest region being calculated as the corpus callosum volume.

An apparatus includes a plurality of particles, wherein each particle contains a plurality of magnetizable (for example, ferromagnetic) and ferroelectric materials in fixed physical relationship (for example, physical contact) with one another. A method and apparatus measure magnetic fields arising from or within the plurality of particles.

A method and a system for measuring intra-site heterogeneity in a tumor using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The method includes acquiring magnetic resonance (MR) images using MRI modality; segmenting tumor sites in the MR images; dividing each of the tumor sites into a plurality of sub-regions; deriving image biomarkers from each voxel or pixel in the plurality of sub-regions; classifying each voxel or pixel in the plurality of sub-regions into genotypes or molecular subtypes based on the extracted image biomarkers and a classifier model including associations between image biomarkers and genotypes or molecule subtypes; creating a distribution of genotypes or molecular subtypes in the each of the plurality of sub-regions based on classifications of voxels or pixels; generating spatial information of genotypes or molecular subtypes in the tumor sites based on the distribution; and measuring intra-site heterogeneity in the tumor sites.

A measurement apparatus includes a light source, a sensor including light detection cells including a first light detection cell and a second light detection cell, and an electronic circuit. The circuit causes the light source to emit a light pulse, causes the first light detection cell to detect a reflected light pulse from a target in an exposure period including at least part of a period from when an intensity of the reflected light pulse starts increasing to when it starts falling and generate a first signal, causes the second light detection cell to detect the reflected light pulse in an exposure period including at least part of a trailing period from when the intensity of the reflected light pulse starts falling to when it stops falling and generate a second signal. The circuit generates, based on the first and second signals, data representing states of the target.

The present disclosure is directed to systems and methods of multiphase pseudo-continuous arterial spin labeling.

A MRS (magnetic resonance spectroscopy or nuclear magnetic resonance NMR)-based PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder) and mTBI (mild traumatic brain injury) diagnostic system and method uses MRS signals, already pre-processed by the MRS scanner software. The signals are collected in vivo from specific regions of the brain. A wavelet decomposition is applied to the MRS signals, and the amplitude of the wavelet coefficients and their location in the MRS signals are used as features for training diagnostic classifiers of disease states. These classifiers are identified through analysis of features of individuals whose health status is known. Once the classifiers are trained, patients can be diagnosed by using the same wavelet features extracted from in vivo MRS scans of their brain regions.

An exemplary system, method and computer-accessible medium for generating a denoised magnetic resonance (MR) image(s) of a portion(s) of a patient(s) can be provided, which can include, for example, generating a plurality of MR images of the portion(s), where a number of the MR images can be based on a number of MR coils in a MR apparatus used to generate the MR images, generating MR imaging information by denoising a first one of the MR images based on another one of the MR images, and generating the denoised MR image(s) based on the MR imaging information. The number of the MR coils can be a subset of a total number of the MR coils in the MR apparatus. The number of the MR coils can be a total number of the MR coils in the MR apparatus. The MR information can be generated by denoising each of the MR images based on the other one of the MR images.

A cannula with a proximally mounted camera and proximally mounted light sources. The lighting sources have beam axes directed distally, toward a workspace at the distal end of the cannula. The light sources are coupled with focusing lenses, to reduce the beam angle of the lighting sources and reduce glare within the cannula tube.
