  • Publication number: 20210052207
    Abstract: A sensor plaster (116) for the transcutaneous measurement of an organ function, more particularly of a kidney function, is proposed. The sensor plaster (116) comprises at least one flexible carrier element (134) having at least one adhesive surface (138) which can be stuck onto a body surface. Furthermore, the sensor plaster (116) comprises at least one radiation source, more particularly a light source (142), wherein the radiation source is designed to irradiate the body surface with at least one interrogation light (162). Furthermore, the sensor plaster (116) comprises at least one detector (146) designed to detect at least one response light (176) incident from the direction of the body surface.

  • Publication number: 20080232547
    Abstract: A backprojection unit is described that is adapted for back-projecting pixel data of n acquired projections onto a voxel subvolume, with n being a natural number. For each of the n projections, the backprojection unit comprises voxel center determination means adapted for projecting m contiguous voxels onto a respective one of the projections, with m 2 being a natural number, memory access means adapted for fetching, for each of the m projected voxel centers, pixel data of pixels adjacent to the projected voxel center from a respective projection buffer, and multiplexing means adapted for distributing the fetched pixel data to m different pipelines. Furthermore, a method for backprojecting pixel data of n acquired projections onto a voxel subvolume is disclosed.

  • Publication number: 20050151736
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for reconstructing an image in a spatial volume on the basis of acquired projections, wherein during a reconstruction step each acquired projection or each region of an acquired projection is fed once into a data processing system from a memory for the acquired projections and intensity of a voxel of the reconstructed spatial volume image is updated during the reconstruction step for each voxel relevant projection or region.
