Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090003670Method and apparatus for thickness compensation in mammographic images - Methods and apparatuses perform thickness compensation in anatomical images. The method according to one embodiment accesses digital image data representing an image including a breast; estimates thickness of the breast at multiple locations inside the breast using an image data characteristic and a reference tissue in the breast; compensates thickness of the breast using a thickness model; and refines compensation of breast thickness from the compensating step.01-01-2009
20100067769METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR REGISTRATION AND COMPARISON OF MEDICAL IMAGES - Methods and apparatuses disclosed herein process medical images, for comparison and analysis of the images. The method according to one embodiment accesses digital image data representing a first medical image and a second medical image; registers the second image to the first image using a specific region preserving registration or specific regions preserving registration, to obtain a registered second image; and compares the first image and the registered second image.03-18-2010

20100141654Device and Method for Displaying Feature Marks Related to Features in Three Dimensional Images on Review Stations - A system is provided for displaying information associated with at least one feature of a three-dimensional image. The three-dimensional image is apportioned along a plane into a plurality of 2-D image slices and a display is provided for viewing the 2-D image slices. A feature window of the present invention is positioned together with a 2-D image display. The feature window displays feature distribution along a plane normal to the plane of the 2-D image slices for one or more regions of interest, thereby increasing reviewing efficiency by enabling visualization of three-dimensions of information using a 2 dimensional display. As a result a reviewer is able to quickly identify image slices with the most pertinent feature information and diagnostic efficiency and accuracy is greatly increased.06-10-2010
