The present disclosure provides systems and methods for hybrid imaging. The systems and methods may obtain a first magnetic resonance (MR) image of a target object. The first MR image may be acquired by a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) device using a first imaging sequence. The systems and methods may also obtain a second MR image of the target object. The second MR image may be acquired by the MRI device using a second imaging sequence. The second MR image may correspond to a target respiratory phase of the target object. The systems and methods may also obtain a target emission computed tomography ECT) image of the target object. The target ECT image may correspond to the target respiratory phase. The systems and methods may further fuse, based on the second MR image, the first MR image and the target ECT image.

A method for dental treatment may include receiving a plurality of images of a patient's dentition, identifying, from the plurality of images, individual teeth of the patient's dentition, detecting, from the plurality of images, one or more attachments on the patient's dentition, assigning, based on each of the plurality of images, each of the one or more attachments to one of the individual teeth in each image, and combining the assignments of each of the plurality of images for attachment detection results.

Systems and methods are disclosed for identifying anatomically relevant blood flow characteristics in a patient. One method includes: receiving, in an electronic storage medium, a patient-specific representation of at least a portion of vasculature of the patient having a lesion at one or more points; receiving values for one or more metrics of interest associated with one or more locations in the vasculature of the patient; receiving one or more observed lumen measurements of the vasculature of the patient; determining the location of a diseased region in the vasculature of the patient using the received values for the one or more metrics of interest, wherein the determination of the location includes predicting or receiving one or more healthy lumen measurements of the vasculature of the patient; determining the extent of the diseased region; and generating a visualization of at least the diseased region.

Methods and systems are provided for reconstructing images from measurement data using one or more deep neural networks according to a decimation strategy. In one embodiment, a method for reconstructing an image using measurement data comprises, receiving measurement data acquired by an imaging device, selecting a decimation strategy, producing a reconstructed image from the measurement data using the decimation strategy and one or more deep neural networks, and displaying the reconstructed image via a display device. By decimating measurement data to form one or more decimated measurement data arrays, a computational complexity of mapping the measurement data to image data may be reduced from O(N.sup.4), where N is the size of the measurement data, to O(M.sup.4), where M is the size of an individual decimated measurement data array, wherein M<N.

A framework for gantry alignment of a multimodality medical scanner. First image data of a non-radioactive structure is acquired by using intrinsic radiation emitted by scintillator crystals of detectors in a first gantry of the multimodality medical scanner. Second image data of the non-radioactive structure is acquired using a second gantry for another modality of the multimodality medical scanner. Image reconstruction may be performed based on the first and second image data of the non-radioactive structure to generate first and second reconstructed image volumes. A gantry alignment transformation that aligns the first and second reconstructed image volumes may then be determined.

A method for selecting one or more targets for non-invasively treating a cardiac arrhythmia in a patient includes receiving a mapping associated with the patient's heart and generating a segmented model of the mapping associated with the patient's heart. The segmented model divides the mapping into a plurality of segments. The method includes identifying one or more abnormality in the segmented model of the mapping associated with the patient's heart, determining which segment or segments of the plurality of segments include the identified one or more abnormality, and selecting a target for non-invasive treatment of the cardiac arrhythmia based on the determined segment or segments of the plurality of segments that include the identified one or more abnormality.

Tomographic images are obtained by processing a tilt series of 2D images by aligning and combining images withing a group of neighbor images. The tilt series generally includes sparsely sampled images. Images of the tilt series at tilt angles associated with the sparsely sample images are selected as reference frames, grouped with neighbor images, and the group of images aligned. The aligned images are combined to produce replacement frames and a replacement frame tilt series that can be used for tomographic reconstruction.

A method includes obtaining image data, selecting image datasets from the image data, creating three-dimensional (3D) matrices based on the selected image dataset, refining the 3D matrices, applying one or more matrix operations to the refined 3D matrices, selecting corresponding matrix columns from the 3D matrices, applying big data convolution algorithm to the selected corresponding matrix columns to create a two-dimensional (2D) matrix, and applying a reconstruction algorithm to create a super-resolution biomarker map image.

A computer-implemented method for evaluating an image data set of an imaged region comprises: determining, from the image data set, at least two processed data sets having different image data content; applying a first sub-algorithm, of an evaluation algorithm, to a first of at least two processed data sets to determine a first intermediate result relating to image data content of the first of the at least two processed data sets; applying a second sub-algorithm, of the evaluation algorithm, to a second of the at least two processed data sets to determine a second intermediate result relating to image data content of the second of the at least two processed data sets; determining quantitative evaluation result data by a third sub-algorithm of the evaluation algorithm, wherein the third sub-algorithm uses both the first intermediate result and the second intermediate result as input data.
