DELIVERY OF THERAPEUTIC NEUROMODULATION
Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to techniques for neuromodulation delivery. Based on image data acquired from the subject, control parameters controlling energy application of neuromodulating energy may be dynamically changed during the course of the delivery to maintain desired characteristics of the neuromodulating energy. For example, the beam of the neuromodulating energy may be dynamically adjusted to account for movement of an organ during breathing. In another embodiment, a desired region of interest is identified within the subject based on a trained neural network and the acquired image data.

METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR GENERATING ARTERIOSCLEROSIS DETECTION INTERFACE, TERMINAL, AND SYSTEM
The present disclosure relates to methods, apparatuses, and systems for generating an arteriosclerosis detection interface. One example method includes obtaining a type of an arteriosclerosis detector in use, generating a detection interface and determining an artery detection position corresponding to the type of the arteriosclerosis detector, and displaying the artery detection position on the detection interface.
INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM
An information processing apparatus includes a behavior state detection sensor configured to detect behavior state information on a behavior state of a user; a behavior pattern information generation unit configured to generate behavior pattern information in a multidimensional space formed of coordinate axes based on the behavior state information to generate a group of spaces in each of which density of a behavior pattern information group as a collection of pieces of the behavior pattern information exceeds predetermined density; a behavior score calculation unit configured to calculate, as a behavior score, information on a size of the space including the behavior pattern information group; and a behavior pattern identification unit configured to identify, as a behavior pattern of the user, the behavior pattern information group in the space for which a value of the behavior score is equal to or larger than a predetermined value.
Methods, systems and computer program products for calculating MetaKG signals for regions having multiple sets of optical characteristics
Methods for calculating a MetaKG signal are provided. The method including illuminating a region of interest in a sample with a near-infrared (NIR) light source and/or a visible light source. The region of interest includes a sample portion and background portion, each having a different set of optical characteristics. Images of the region of interest are acquired and processed to obtain metadata associated with the acquired images. MetaKG signals are calculated for the region of interest and for the background. The MetaKG signal for the background is used to adjust the MetaKG signal for the region of interest to provide a final adjusted MetaKG signal for the region of interest.
Assessment of iron deposition post myocardial infarction as a marker of myocardial hemorrhage
The invention is directed to methods for diagnosing reperfusion/non-reperfusion hemorrhage and predicting cardiac arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death in subjects comprising using imaging techniques to detect regional iron oxide deposition. The invention also provides treatment methods for subject at increased risk of sudden cardiac death.
Disposable sensing elements comprising a piezoelectric unit
A device for detecting stenosis comprising disposable components to ensure function and sanitary conditions, said device having a disposable sensing pad, a disposable piezo assembly, and a disposable sensing pod; wherein the entire device can be disposed of after a predetermined number of uses to ensure accuracy of results and of sanitary conditions.
Apparatus for monitoring the pulse of a person and a method thereof
A wearable device in the form of a tee-shirt is described. The sleeves of the tee-shirt having an electrocardiogram (ECG) sensor, a photoplethysmogram (PPG) sensor or a ballistocardiogram (BCG) sensor for monitoring the pulse of a person wearing the tee-shirt. The tee-shirt makes possible the comparison of the pulses down the two arms. The pulse-transit-time, pulse amplitude, pulse spread and pulse shape may be compared to observe any difference between the left and right sides of the person.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DIAGNOSING PULSATILE TINNITUS AND OTHER BLOOD VESSEL DISORDERS
A catheter for diagnosing an abnormality of a blood vessel includes an elongated body defining an elongated lumen therethrough; and one or more transducers disposed on an outer surface of the elongated body. One or more transducers are configured to output an electrical signal in response to sound.
