20230334665 · 2023-10-19 · ·

A first processor of a learning device reads out a first medical use image having a disease label from a data set stored in a memory and inputs the read out first medical use image to a first learning model. The first medical use image is normalized based on a lung field region extracted by the first learning model, and a second learning model that has not been trained and detects a disease is trained by using the normalized first medical use image and the disease label. In a case in which the second learning model is trained, a value of the uncertainty of the first medical use image is calculated based on the uncertainty simultaneously estimated by the first learning model, and the first medical use image having a large value of uncertainty is excluded from learning data.

A method for implementing a dynamic three-dimensional lung map view for navigating a probe inside a patient's lungs includes loading a navigation plan into a navigation system, the navigation plan including a planned pathway shown in a 3D model generated from a plurality of CT images, inserting the probe into a patient's airways, registering a sensed location of the probe with the planned pathway, selecting a target in the navigation plan, presenting a view of the 3D model showing the planned pathway and indicating the sensed location of the probe, navigating the probe through the airways of the patient's lungs toward the target, iteratively adjusting the presented view of the 3D model showing the planned pathway based on the sensed location of the probe, and updating the presented view by removing at least a part of an object forming part of the 3D model.

Fast 3D radiography using multiple pulsed X-ray sources in motion with C-arm

A C-Arm X-ray imaging system using multiple pulsed X-ray sources in motion to perform efficient and ultrafast 3D radiography is presented. X-ray sources mounted on a structure in motion to form an array. X-ray sources move simultaneously relative to an object on a pre-defined arc track at a constant speed as a group. Each individual source can also move rapidly around its static position in a small distance. When a source has a speed that is equal to group speed but with opposite moving direction, the source at one C-arm end and X-ray flat panel detector at other C-arm end are activated through an external exposure control unit so that source stay momentarily standstill. The C-arm provides 3D X-ray scan imaging over a wide sweep angle and in different position by rotation. The X-ray image can be analyzed by an artificial intelligence module for real-time diagnosis.

Fast 3D radiography with multiple pulsed X-ray sources by deflecting tube electron beam using electro-magnetic field

An X-ray imaging system using multiple pulsed X-ray sources to perform highly efficient and ultrafast 3D radiography is presented. There are multiple pulsed X-ray sources mounted on a structure in motion to form an array of sources. The multiple X-ray sources move simultaneously relative to an object on a pre-defined arc track at a constant speed as a group. Electron beam inside each individual X-ray tube is deflected by magnetic or electrical field to move focal spot a small distance. When focal spot of an X-ray tube beam has a speed that is equal to group speed but with opposite moving direction, the X-ray source and X-ray flat panel detector are activated through an external exposure control unit so that source tube stay momentarily standstill equivalently. 3D scan can cover much wider sweep angle in much shorter time and image analysis can also be done in real-time.

Fast 3D radiography using X-ray flexible curved panel detector with motion compensated multiple pulsed X-ray sources

An X-ray imaging system using multiple pulsed X-ray sources in motion to perform high efficient and ultrafast 3D radiography using an X-ray flexible curved panel detector is presented. There are multiple pulsed X-ray sources mounted on a structure in motion to form an array of sources. The sources move simultaneously relative to an object on a predefined arc track at a constant speed as a group. Each individual X-ray source can move around its static position at a small distance. When an individual source has a speed equal to group speed, but with opposite moving direction, the individual source and detector are activated. This allows source to stay relatively standstill during activation. The operation results in reduced source travel distance for each individual source. 3D radiography image data can be acquired with much wider sweep angle in much shorter time, and image analysis can also be done in real-time.
