Method And Apparatus For Automated Detection Of Target Structures From Medical Images Using A 3D Morphological Matching Algorithm
US Patent:
7949169, May 24, 2011
Filed:
Dec 3, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/537514
Inventors:
Kyongtae T. Bae - Pittsburgh PA, US
Jinsung Kim - Suyong-gu, KR
Jinsung Kim - Suyong-gu, KR
International Classification:
G06K 9/00
US Classification:
382131, 382154, 382132, 382128, 382133
Abstract:
A method for the automated detection of target structures shown in digital medical images, the method of comprising: (1) generating a three dimensional (3D) volumetric data set of a patient region within which the target structure resides from a plurality of segmented medical image slices; (2) grouping contiguous structures that are depicted in the 3D volumetric data set to create corresponding grouped structure data sets; (3) assigning each grouped structure data set to one of a plurality of detection algorithms, each detection algorithm being configured to detect a different type of target structure; and (4) processing each grouped structure data set according to its assigned detection algorithm to thereby detect whether any target structures are present in the medical images. Preferably, the target structures are pulmonary nodules, and a specialized detection algorithm is applied to image data classified as a candidate for depicting perivascular nodules. To segment perivascular nodule candidates from surrounding vessels, the image data is preferably correlated with a plurality of 3D morphological filters.
Echo-Specific K-Space Reordering Approach To Compatible Dual-Echo Arteriovenography
US Patent:
2011021, Sep 1, 2011
Filed:
Sep 14, 2009
Appl. No.:
13/062187
Inventors:
Sung-Hong Park - Pittsburgh PA, US
Kyongtae Ty Bae - Pittsburgh PA, US
Kyongtae Ty Bae - Pittsburgh PA, US
International Classification:
A61B 5/055
US Classification:
600410
Abstract:
A dual-echo sequence technique provided herein empowers simultaneous acquisition of both TOF MRA and BOLD MRV in a single MR acquisition. By this approach, an echo-specific K-space ordering scheme permits the adjustment of the scan parameters that are compatible for each of the MRA and MRV. The image quality in the MRA and MRV acquired by this compatible dual-echo arteriovenography (CODEA) technique is comparable to that for conventional, single-echo MRA and MRV. When the technique is integrated with MOTSA, seamless vascular connectivity is achieved in both MRA and MRV over a large area of brain anatomy. The technique will facilitate routine clinical acquisition and application of dual-echo MRA and MRV, as both MRA and MRV can be acquired with minimal impact on the image quality and without adversely affecting the scan throughput.
