Publication number: 20240159918Abstract: A dosimetry system for monitoring radiation exposure for a device under inspection comprises a support structure, a plurality of detectors, a signal processing unit, and a computing device. The support structure includes an upper surface on which the device under inspection is positioned. The detectors are positioned in proximity to the device under inspection. Each detector is configured to detect radiation and generate a radiation electronic signal whose level varies according to an amount of radiation to which the detector is exposed. The signal processing unit is configured to receive the radiation electronic signal from each detector and output data derived from the radiation electronic signals. The computing device is configured to receive the data from the signal processing unit and determine an accumulated radiation level for each detector.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 14, 2023Publication date: May 16, 2024Inventors: John Porter, Amir Bahadori, Walter McNeil, Michael Pfeifer, Nathanael Simerl

Publication number: 20230245782Abstract: A method and system for determining cardiac disease risk from electrocardiogram trace data is provided. The method includes receiving electrocardiogram trace data associated with a patient, the electrocardiogram trace data having an electrocardiogram configuration including a plurality of leads. One or more leads of the plurality of leads that are derivable from a combination of other leads of the plurality of leads are identified, and a portion of the electrocardiogram trace data does not include electrocardiogram trace data of the one or more leads. The portion of the electrocardiogram data is provided to a trained machine learning model, to evaluate the portion of the electrocardiogram trace data with respect to one or more cardiac disease states. A risk score reflecting a likelihood of the patient being diagnosed with a cardiac disease state within a predetermined period of time is generated by the trained machine learning model based on the evaluation.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 12, 2023Publication date: August 3, 2023Inventors: Noah Zimmerman, Brandon Fornwalt, John Pfeifer, Ruijun Chen, Arun Nemani, Greg Lee, Steve Steinhubl, Christopher Haggerty, Sushravya Raghunath, Alvaro Ulloa-Cerna, Linyuan Jing, Thomas Morland
