| 20080221385 | HYPERTHERMIA TREATMENT DEVICE WITH X-RAY COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY IMAGING - A medical technology device has an x-ray CT imaging system and a magnet system for generation of a radio-frequency alternating magnetic field for treatment of a tumor injected with ferrite nanoparticles, the x-ray CT system and the magnet system being combined to form a unitary structure. Imaging and tumor therapy can be conducted with one apparatus, and the monitoring of the course of the tumor therapy is simplified. | 09-11-2008 |
| 20080292048 | Method, tomography system and image processing system for displaying tomographic records of a patient - A method and a tomographic system are disclosed for displaying tomographic records of a patient. In at least one embodiment, the method includes scanning the patient with the aid of a tomographic system having one system axis, determining at least one topogram, calculating three-dimensional image data records including a multiplicity of slice images on a plane or volume data records, and outputting at least one slice image of the patient. In at least one embodiment, the orientation of individual body zones relative to the system axis of the tomographic system is automatically determined from the at least one topogram, and slice images of the body zones are calculated from the three-dimensional image data records, the slice planes of which are at a defined solid angle to the previously determined orientation of the scanned body zones. | 11-27-2008 |
| 20090064154 | IMAGE RECONSTRUCTION SYSTEM WITH MULTIPLE PARALLEL RECONSTRUCTION PIPELINES - In a method, system, computer-readable medium and watchdog module to control a number of medical technology processes that are executed in multiple computerized pipelines according to a predetermined organizational structure, a priority is associated with an incoming process, with a high priority and multiple low priorities being provided. A process with a high priority is executed in a priority pipeline among the multiple pipelines. | 03-05-2009 |
| 20090112083 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR CORRELATING TOMOGRAPHICALLY CONTROLLED INTERVENTIONAL PROCEDURES WITH PATIENT POSITION IN THE RESPIRATORY CYCLE - In a method and an imaging system for implementing a CT-assisted or MRT-assisted minimally-invasive interventional procedure at an anatomical location inside the body of a patient, the inspiratory or respiratory position of the patient within the respiratory cycle of the patient is continuously detected and a measurement value, identifying a current position of the patient within the respiratory cycle, is detected at a point in time that a CT or MRT slice image of the anatomical location is obtained. This measurement value is stored together with the image data of the slice image so that the measurement value and the image data can be retrieved together and displayed together. | 04-30-2009 |
| 20090141858 | Beam admission unit, beam generation device and tomography device - A beam admission unit is disclosed. In at least one embodiment, the beam admission unit includes a plurality of admission segments having at least one admission slit for admitting radiation emanating from a radiation source onto a predetermined admission region. So as to implement a particularly space-saving, robust and reliable design, in at least one embodiment the admission segments are interconnected in an articulated fashion to form an admission plate chain which can be rolled up. | 06-04-2009 |
| 20110118595 | METHOD AND DEVICE FOR IDENTIFYING AND ASSIGNING CORONARY CALCIFICATION TO A CORONARY VESSEL AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT - A method and a device are disclosed for identifying and assigning coronary calcification to at least one coronary vessel of a heart in a patient. In at least one embodiment, coronary calcification is identified on the basis of a | 05-19-2011 |
