Publication number: 20230063247Abstract: A framework for personalized recommendation. An image content profile for a current case is generated. One or more auxiliary information representations associated with the current case are further generated. Affinity scores for radiology service providers are then determined by applying service profiles of the radiology service providers, the image content profile and the one or more auxiliary information representations to a trained recommendation engine. The current case is then assigned to one of the radiology service providers based on the affinity scores.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 25, 2021Publication date: March 2, 2023Inventors: Sailesh Conjeti, Philipp Hoelzer, Ingo Schmuecking, Anna Jerebko, Luca Bogoni, Gerardo Hermosillo Valadez, Valentin Ziebandt

Patent number: 8655036Abstract: Locations, such as computer assisted detection marks, are presented in medical imaging diagnosis, such as for colon computed tomography diagnosis. To avoid fly-through and/or to assist in more rapid and thorough review of CAD marks, a summary of a plurality of detected candidates is pre-computed and presented to the user in a single collection. For example, a single display or screen view includes a gallery of images for different candidates. These pre-computed images are displayed on the screen, allowing the user to quickly identify locations of interest and rule out other locations. The summary may be used for navigation outside the CAD context, such as presenting different portions of an organ to be viewed.Type: GrantFiled: May 24, 2011Date of Patent: February 18, 2014Assignee: Siemens Medical Solutions USA, Inc.Inventors: Gerardo Hermosillo Valadez, Luca Bogoni

Patent number: 8184888Abstract: A method and system for polyp segmentation in computed tomography colonogrphy (CTC) volumes is disclosed. The polyp segmentation method utilizes a three-staged probabilistic binary classification approach for automatically segmenting polyp voxels from surrounding tissue in CTC volumes. Based on an input initial polyp position, a polyp tip is detected in a CTC volume using a trained 3D point detector. A local polar coordinate system is then fit to the colon surface in the CTC volume with the origin at the detected polyp tip. Polyp interior voxels and polyp exterior voxels are detected along each axis of the local polar coordinate system using a trained 3D box. A boundary voxel is detected on each axis of the local polar coordinate system based on the detected polyp interior voxels and polyp exterior voxels by boosted 1D curve parsing using a trained classifier. This results in a segmented polyp boundary.Type: GrantFiled: September 5, 2008Date of Patent: May 22, 2012Assignee: Siemens Medical Solutions USA, Inc.Inventors: Le Lu, Adrian Barbu, Matthias Wolf, Sarang Lakare, Luca Bogoni, Marcos Salganicoff, Dorin Comaniciu
