  • Patent number: 11766238
    Abstract: Systems and methods for multi-modality data processing are provided. Some embodiments are particularly directed to navigating sets of multi-modality medical data in a multi-modality processing system. In one embodiment, a method for navigating medical data in a medical processing system includes receiving a reference set of medical data by the medical processing system, where the medical data corresponds to a modality selected from the group consisting of: FFR, iFR, pressure, flow, IVUS, and OCT. The medical processing system also receives a navigation command. An enhancement and a subset of the reference set of medical data to enhance are identified based on the navigation command. The medical processing system performs the selected enhancement on the subset of data and the enhanced subset is displayed. The enhancement may include performing a single-axis zoom on the subset.

  • Patent number: 11742081
    Abstract: A computer system selects features of a dataset for predictive modeling. A first set of features that are relevant to outcome are selected from a dataset comprising a plurality of cases and controls. A subset of cases and controls having similar values for the first set of features is identified. The subset is analyzed to select a set of additional features relevant to outcome. A first and second predictive model are evaluated to determine that the second predictive model more accurately predicts outcome, wherein the first predictive model is based on the first set of features and the second predictive model is based on the first set of features and the additional features. The second predictive model is utilized to predict outcomes. Embodiments of the present invention further include a method and program product for selecting features of a dataset for predictive modeling in substantially the same manner described above.

  • Patent number: 11610654
    Abstract: A note automation server automatically generates medical notes for appointments between patients and physicians. The note automation server generates a fingerprint for each upcoming appointment between a patient and physician using information from an EHR system and information stored on the note automation server. The fingerprint includes information about the patient, including demographic information and medical history. The note automation server identifies an appropriate note template and billing codes for the appointment using the fingerprint and an audio file recorded by a physician during and/or after an appointment. The fingerprint, audio file, and note template are used complete of the medical note. The completed medical note and billing codes are exported to the EHR system, where it is accessed by the physician. The note automation server monitors the EHR system to see if the physician modified the medical note or a billing code.

  • Patent number: 11574713
    Abstract: A mechanism is provided for implement a discrepancy detection mechanism for detecting discrepancies between clinical notes and administrative records. Clinical concepts are extracted from the clinical notes and the administrative records in a patient's electronic medical records (EMRs). The extracted clinical concepts are filtered based on semantic type information to identify concepts that reference diseases or syndromes while also removing negated instances. Utilizing the positive mentions of diseases in clinical notes, the positive mentions of diseases or syndromes in the clinical notes are compared against each positive entry in the administrative records. A discrepancy summary is then generated for diseases or syndromes that failed to translate correctly from clinical notes to the administrative records in the patient's EMRs.
