Additionally, alternative segmentations and label assignments are provided to the user being capable to select alternative segmentations and alternative labels as well as to enter a user defined segmentation and user defined label. In response to the modifications introduced by the user, a plurality of different actions are initiated incorporating the re-segmentation and re-labelling of successive parts of the document or the entire document. Furthermore the method comprises a learning functionality, logging and analyzing user introduced modifications for adaptation of user's preferences and for further training of the statistical models. | 08-21-2008 |
20080226149 | Motion Compensation in Functional Imaging - Medical images are collected in a plurality of cardiac and respiratory phases. The images are transformed into a series of respiratory compensated images with the plurality of cardiac phases, but all at a common respiration phase. The series of respiratory compensated images are transformed into one image at a selected cardiac phase and the common respiration phase. In some embodiments, a database of gated transform matrices is generated. The database may be based on specific patient information or on information generated from a pool of patients. The database may account for respiratory motion, cardiac contractile motion, other physiological motion, or combinations thereof. For a current image to be motion corrected, the transformation matrices collected in the database are used to estimate a current set of transformation matrices accounting for the motion in the current image, and a motion-compensated image is generated based on the current set of transform matrices. | 09-18-2008 |
20090208075 | ERROR ADAPTIVE FUNCTIONAL IIMAGING - A method for use in functional medical imaging includes adaptively partitioning functional imaging data as a function of a spatially varying error model. The functional image data is partitioned according to an optimization strategy. The data may be visualized or used to plan a course of treatment. In one implementation, the image data is partitioned so as to vary its spatial resolution. In another, the number of clusters is varied based on the error model. | 08-20-2009 |

20120087558 | MEDICAL IMAGING - Ultrasound imaging, or ultrasonography, is a convenient imaging modality for diagnostic purposes. During procedures requiring visualization, the user coordinates the movement of the transducer through the manual selection of an appropriate representation on the screen. Ultrasound may also be employed for functional measurements. Typically, the measurement requires the manual selection of target planes, lines, or volumes where the measurement is to be performed. Therapeutic applications of ultrasound are also known in the art. Such applications typically employ higher energies, and therefore inaccuracies in positioning may result in damage to surrounding tissues. The invention provides a system and method for repeated determination of a first vector between a reference structure comprised in an anatomical volume and a medical imaging transducer configured to provide imaging data of the anatomical volume. The invention provides an automated tracking system of the reference structure, requiring that the user only selects the reference structure. | 04-12-2012 |

20110098954 | Feedback Mechanism for Scanner - Many households are increasingly installing systems for their own electricity supply from renewable energies, for example for economical or ecological reasons. If a household produces more electricity than it needs for its own use, it can feed the surplus amount of power into the electrical grid. In order to promote investment in corresponding systems, the payments for the power fed in are subsidized in many countries, with the result that comparatively high remuneration can be paid for the power fed in. Consequently, there is a great incentive to manipulate electricity meters for measuring the amount of power fed in. Hence, a system for detecting the amount of power fed in in a manner which is protected against manipulation can be provided, in which system the amount of power actually produced and that fed in can be balanced. | 04-28-2011 |
20110158410 | METHOD FOR TRANSMITTING DATA BETWEEN NETWORK NODES - A method transmits data between network nodes of a network in a cryptographically protected manner. The network nodes are, for example, sensor nodes of a wireless sensor network. In the method, in order to transmit the data in a message, a NONCE value is created from a count value which is updated in the transmission of the message and from a constant value which is provided in a shared manner to the network nodes of the network. The data transmitted in the message is then encrypted and decrypted within the network nodes by a cryptographic key and the created NONCE value. The method offers in particular protection against replay attacks while at the same time minimizing the use of resources of the network nodes. | 06-30-2011 |
