Abstract: A method, software and apparatus are disclosed to improve security by helping determine whether a bag contains a prohibited item. A CT scan of a bag is performed to generate an image. An artificial intelligence algorithm is performed to classify portions of an image as normal and portions of said image as abnormal. A first type of image processing for said normal portion(s) of said image. A second type of image processing for said abnormal portion(s) of said image wherein said second type of image processing is different from said first type of image processing. The normal portion(s) of the image are displayed with said first type of image processing and said abnormal portion(s) of the image are displayed with said second type of image processing to a TSA Agent for analysis of said image. In the preferred embodiment, the TSA Agent will perform the analysis on an extended reality head display unit.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for performing a contrast simulation of a CT or MRI scan is disclosed. Voxel(s) within a three-dimensional dataset are modified using an artificial intelligence algorithm to generate a virtual contrast three-dimensional dataset. The modification includes altering the numerical value(s) of voxels corresponding to body tissue(s) in accordance with said blood flow through said body tissue, such that an appearance of contrast is created. Multi-phase simulations can be performed to track contrast flow through the vascular tree. Some embodiments comprise inserting virtual contrast in conjunction with performing a deformity of the vascular structure.

Abstract: Digital breast tomosynthesis represents an enhanced type of mammogram for detecting breast cancer. In this disclosure, data from digital breast tomosynthesis is reconstructed into a volumetric database with each voxel having a (x, y, z) coordinate and viewed in true 3D using geo-registered head display unit and geo-registered tools for overall enhanced diagnosis. The breast is imaged under various configurations and the internal architecture of an anatomic feature three-dimensionally analyzed. Additional dataset creation and three-dimensional imaging techniques are disclosed.

Abstract: An interactive 3D cursor facilitates selection and manipulation of a three-dimensional volume from a three-dimensional image. The selected volume image may be transparency-adjusted and filtered to remove selected tissues from view. Qualitative and quantitative analysis of tissues in a selected volume may be performed. Location indicators, annotations, and registration markers may be overlaid on selected volume images.

Abstract: A method and apparatus comprising generating a dynamic content blocker. An image, which may be comprised of words, symbols and pictures, is segmented into items. Each item is analyzed by an artificial intelligence algorithm. Items can be determined by the AI algorithm to be of non-interest. The dynamic content blocker consists of a blocking image, which is dynamically placed over the items of non-interest, as determined by the AI. If the AI determines that the items are of interest, then these items will remain visible to the user. This will therefore generate a more eye-appealing image for the user and improve the presentation of imagery to a user.

Abstract: This patent provides a method and apparatus for improving the spatial resolution of the display, so that it appears less pixelated. This is accomplished by generating a first portion of an image that corresponds to a user's fovea and a second portion of the image that corresponds to areas of non-fovea regions of the retina. For the region of the image that corresponds to the fovea, the display uses high spatial resolution of pixels, so that the display is optimized for the user's central vision which has the highest visual acuity. For regions of the image that do not correspond to the fovea, the display uses a lower spatial resolution of pixels. Furthermore, the first portion of the image with the high spatial resolution can be moved within the image so as to accommodate various look angles and convergence points of the user.

Abstract: This patent discloses an apparatus that protects a user's eyes from the dangerous particulates in the atmosphere. A high efficiency filter is utilized in conjunction with goggles or eye glasses to prevent dangerous particulates in the environment from reaching the compartment of air that touches the eyeballs. This apparatus is designed to help mitigate the spread of the Corona Virus outbreak.

Abstract: This patent includes a method for utilizing imaging biomarkers to improve pharmacologic dosing strategies. Specifically, biomarker specific CT and MRI examination protocols are disclosed. Dose adjustments based on imaging biomarkers are discussed. Longitudinal analysis of imaging biomarkers is disclosed assess effectiveness of pharmacotherapy and dosing strategies thereof. Finally, manufacturing of a combination pill with day-to-day variations of drug quantities is disclosed.

Abstract: Systems and a method for improved 3D visualization on a head display unit are presented herein. Exemplary features include filtering of the volume of interest and viewing the filtered volume of interest via a head display unit with a left eye display and a right eye display. Additional options include zooming and rotating. These features at least improve display of the 3D images to a user.

Abstract: A computerized medical diagnostic system uses a training dataset that is updated based on reports generated by a radiologist. AI and/or CAD is used to make an initial determination of no finding, finding, or diagnosis based on the training dataset. Normal results with a high confidence of no finding are not reviewed by the radiologist. Low confidence results, findings, and diagnosis are reviewed by the radiologist. The radiologist generates a report that associates terminology and weighting with marked 3D image volumes. The report is used to update the training dataset.
