20080205731Noise Model Selection for Emission Tomography - Accurate error estimates are beneficial for many applications of emission tomography, e.g. kinetic modelling or SUV quantification with confidence levels. Due to the variety of parameters influencing the noise properties of PET images, the use of a single error model for all imaging situations and data processing set-ups leads to inaccurate error estimates. The present invention circumvents this problem by providing a database that includes a plurality of pre-determined noise models for different imaging situations. The most appropriate noise model can then be selected manually or automatically depending on the given imaging situation. Hence, the time-consuming procedure of extracting correct noise models, e.g. by utilizing a bootstrap method or by analysing repeated measurements, needs to be performed only once for each model and can be done by the vendor of the acquisition system, so that the clinician can instantly access the optimized error models from the database.08-28-2008
20090097749SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR INTERACTIVE DEFINITION OF REGIONS AND VOLUMES OF INTEREST - The definition of regions or volumes of interest and the delineation of objects of interest are important and frequently performed tasks in clinical imaging. However, today's solutions for this task are often time-consuming and cumbersome for the clinician. The present invention provides an alternative approach that is intuitive and works even for noisy images where automatic segmentation approaches usually fail. The disclosed systems and methods automatically translate mouse movements relative to an imaginary x-axis and y-axis into modifications in the threshold and scale (i.e., shape and size) of a boundary delineation, thereby permitting a system user/clinician to rapidly arrive at a desired ROI and/or VOI.04-16-2009
20090273610VIRTUAL LESION QUANTIFICATION - A system and method for quantifying a region of interest in a medical image and in particular, a PET image. The system and method allow the clinician to make real time quantitative analysis of a region of interest. The system and method can be used to quantify small lesions within a region of interest by generating a set of virtual lesions for comparison with the actual lesion. Quantitative information, such as lesion size and tracer activity, or SUV, can be obtained to assist the clinician or physician in the diagnosis and treatment of the lesion.11-05-2009

In a normal operating mode, ammonia is supplied to the SCR catalytic converter corresponding to a filling level model for ammonia stored in the SCR catalytic converter, in such a way that the ammonia filling level of the SCR catalytic converter is held at least approximately at a predefinable nominal value (or value range). The normal operating mode is interrupted if an exhaust gas sensor signal that exceeds a predefinable first limit value, is registered, and the set urea dosing rate is increased by a predefinable degree in relation to the value provided in the normal operating mode. Thereafter, a return is made to the normal operating mode, or a switch is made to a diagnostic operating mode, as a function of the profile of the signal of the exhaust gas sensor.12-30-2010
