Disclosed herein are methods and systems for optical coherence tomography (OCT) angiography (OCTA). An interleaved scanning pattern is described herein for both raster and bidirectional scanning methods. The interleaved scanning pattern provides B-scans with different scanning intervals. OCTA images based on the B-scans may be combined to obtain a high dynamic range (HDR) OCTA image. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.

Methods and systems for alignment of a subject for medical imaging are disclosed, and involve capturing an image of an anatomical region comprising a target tissue and determining, based on the image and based on a reference image, that a current alignment of the image capture device is aligned with a predefined alignment. The determination is performed before initiating capturing of a time series of fluorescence medical images from fluorescence emission. In response to the determining that the current alignment is aligned with the predefined alignment, capturing of the time series of fluorescence medical images from the fluorescence emission is initiated.

The present application discloses a cerebral perfusion state classification apparatus and method, a device, and a storage medium. The method includes: acquiring, by a transceiving module, cervical blood flow data from an ultrasound data collecting device; determining, by a processor, cerebral perfusion data corresponding to the cervical blood flow data based on the cervical blood flow data and a mapping relationship between the cervical blood flow data and the cerebral perfusion data, and classifying cerebral perfusion states of a plurality of brain regions based on blood perfusion characteristics of the plurality of brain regions in the cerebral perfusion data.

Provided is a control method for a system for determining a lesion obtained via real-time image. The control method comprises: an endoscope device obtaining a stomach endoscopy image; the endoscope device transmitting the obtained stomach endoscopy image to a server; the server determining a lesion included in the stomach endoscopy image, by inputting the stomach endoscopy image into a first artificial intelligence model; when it is determined that a lesion is detected in the stomach endoscopy image, the server obtaining an image including the lesion and transmitting the image to a database of the server; the server determining the type of the lesion included in the image, by inputting the image into a second artificial intelligence model; and when it is determined that a lesion is detected in the stomach endoscopy image, a display device displaying a UI for guiding the location of the lesion in the stomach endoscopy image.

There is provided a method of generating a dataset of synthetic images, comprising: for each real image each depicting a real human anatomical structure: extracting and preserving a real anatomical structure region(s) from the real image, generating a synthetic image comprising a synthetic human anatomical structure region and the preserved real anatomical structure region(s), designating pairs of images, each including the real image and the synthetic image, feeding the pair into a machine learning model trained to recognize anatomical structure parts to obtain an outcome of a similarity value denoting an amount of similarity between the real image and the synthetic image, verifying that the synthetic image does not depict the real human anatomical structure when the similarity value is below a threshold, wherein an identity of the real human anatomical structure is non-determinable from the synthetic image, and including the verified synthetic image in the dataset.

Systems and methods are disclosed for automatically performing motion correction in dynamic positron emission tomography scans, such as dynamic positron emission tomography myocardial perfusion imaging studies. An automated algorithm can be used. The algorithm can use simplex iterative optimization of a count-based cost-function customized to different dynamic phases for performing frame-by-frame motion correction.

An image processing method includes: obtaining DCE magnetic resonance images corresponding to a plurality of time points for a same detection target; determining average pixel grayscale values of images of a same lesion region in the DCE magnetic resonance images of the plurality of time points respectively; determining a time to peak according to the average pixel grayscale values corresponding to the plurality of time points; and generating a first-stage time-intensity image before the time to peak and a second-stage time-intensity image after the time to peak respectively according to the DCE magnetic resonance images and the time to peak. The first-stage time-intensity image and the second-stage time-intensity image are 3D images. A pixel grayscale value of each pixel in the first-stage time-intensity image and the second-stage time-intensity image represents a change rate of blood supply intensity and reflects a severity level of a lesion corresponding to the lesion region.

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.
