The invention relates to a method of detecting symptoms of peritonitis, wherein the method comprises the following steps: taking a photo of a drainage solution and/or of a catheter exit site using a smartphone and/or inputting at least one query parameter which is input by a patient through the input zone of a smartphone; and, evaluating the photo and/or the query parameter.

The disclosure relates to systems and methods for evaluating a blood vessel. The method includes receiving image data of the blood vessel acquired by an image acquisition device, and predicting, by a processor, blood vessel condition parameters of the blood vessel by applying a deep learning model to the acquired image data of the blood vessel. The deep learning model maps a sequence of image patches on the blood vessel to blood vessel condition parameters on the blood vessel, where in the mapping the entire sequence of image patches contribute to the blood vessel condition parameters. The method further includes providing the blood vessel condition parameters of the blood vessel for evaluating the blood vessel.

Embodiments of the present disclosure include a method, device and computer readable medium involving receiving image data of one or more coronary arteries, generating a binary segmentation indicating presence of calcium in the one or more coronary arteries from the image data, generating a branch density of the one or more coronary arteries, and assigning a coronary artery label from the branch density to the binary segmentation such that at least one indication of presence of calcium of the binary segmentation is labeled as present in a specific one of the one or more coronary arteries.

A computer-implemented segmentation method for segmenting a core and a penumbra in a four-dimensional computed tomography perfusion dataset of ischemic tissue in an image region of a patient, includes determining at least one parameter map for at least one perfusion parameter from the computed tomography perfusion dataset; and using the at least one parameter map and the computed tomograph perfusion dataset as input data to a trained function to determine output data, the output data including segmentation information of the penumbra and the core.

The method comprises: acquiring a microcirculation image (S1); determining a location of an intra-tubular space of a capillary vessel from the microcirculation image (S2); and determining a leukocyte index based on image information of the intra-tubular space of the capillary vessel (S3).

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

In a target image generated by multi-resolution processing, a pixel of interest and a group of reference pixels are designated. In a corresponding image belonging to a level that is one level above, pixel value patterns are compared between a corresponding region of interest and corresponding reference regions so as to calculate weights. A modified pixel-of-interest value is determined by means of multiplying the reference pixel values by the weights.

A system (100) includes a computer readable storage medium (122) with computer executable instructions (124), including: a biophysical simulator component (126) configured to determine a fractional flow reserve value via simulation and a traffic light engine (128) configured to track a user-interaction with the computing system at one or more points of the simulation to determine the fractional flow reserve value. A processor (120) is configured to execute the biophysical simulator component to determine the fractional flow reserve value and configured to execute the traffic light engine to track the user-interaction with respect to determining the fractional flow reserve value and provide a warning in response to determining there is a potential incorrect interaction. A display is configured to display the warning requesting verification to proceed with the simulation from the point, wherein the simulation is resumed only in response to the processor receiving the requested verification.

A medical information processing apparatus includes processing circuitry. The processing circuitry is configured to acquire medical image data representing a blood vessel of a subject, extract a blood vessel shape from the medical image data, determine degree of meandering in each of regions from the extracted blood vessel shape, specify a deformed region in which the degree of meandering changes due to insertion of a device into the blood vessel on the basis of the degree of meandering, and output the deformed region in the blood vessel.

Example embodiments allow for fast, efficient motion-magnification of video streams by decomposing image frames of the video stream into local phase information at multiple spatial scales and/or orientations. The phase information for each image frame is then scaled to magnify local motion and the scaled phase information is transformed back into image frames to generate a motion-magnified video stream. Scaling of the phase information can include temporal filtering of the phase information across image frames, for example, to magnify motion at a particular frequency. In some embodiments, temporal filtering of phase information at a frequency of breathing, cardiovascular pulse, or some other process of interest allows for motion-magnification of motions within the video stream corresponding to the breathing or the other particular process of interest. The phase information can also be used to determine time-varying motion signals corresponding to motions of interest within the video stream.
