SYSTEM OF JOINT BRAIN TUMOR AND CORTEX RECONSTRUCTION
20180008187 · 2018-01-11 · ·

System for performing fully automatic brain tumor and tumor-aware cortex reconstructions upon receiving multi-modal MRI data (T1, T1c, T2, T2-Flair). The system outputs imaging which delineates distinctions between tumors (including tumor edema, and tumor active core), from white matter and gray matter surfaces. In cases where existing MRI model data is insufficient then the model is trained on-the-fly for tumor segmentation and classification. A tumor-aware cortex segmentation that is adaptive to the presence of the tumor is performed using labels, from which the system reconstructs and visualizes both tumor and cortical surfaces for diagnostic and surgical guidance. The technology has been validated using a publicly-available challenge dataset.

Systems and methods for analyzing pathologies utilizing quantitative imaging are presented herein. Advantageously, the systems and methods of the present disclosure utilize a hierarchical analytics framework that identifies and quantify biological properties/analytes from imaging data and then identifies and characterizes one or more pathologies based on the quantified biological properties/analytes. This hierarchical approach of using imaging to examine underlying biology as an intermediary to assessing pathology provides many analytic and processing advantages over systems and methods that are configured to directly determine and characterize pathology from underlying imaging data.

SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR IMAGE SEGMENTATION

Systems and methods for image segmentation are provided. The systems may obtain a target image and a template image relating to the target image.

The systems may determine, based on the intermediate mask, one or more first regions from the target image and one or more second regions from the intermediate template image. The systems may determine a second transformation by registering each of the one or more second regions to a corresponding first region. The systems may determine a target mask according to which the target image can be segmented based on one or more second transformations.
