Patents by Inventor Man Won HWANG

Man Won HWANG has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 10438375
    Abstract: Provided is a method in which a web client receives a whole slide image (WSI) having an image compression format and a tile size different depending on a digital pathology vendor from a digital pathology server in a streaming manner. The method includes a WSI acquisition operation of acquiring the WSI from the digital pathology server. The WSI acquisition operation includes a normalized tile definition operation of defining a normalized tile having a minimized time cost, a determination operation of comparing a tile with the normalized tile, and a conversion operation of optimizing the tile with the normalized tile.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10289803
    Abstract: Disclosed is a patient case identity determination method for a digital pathology system, which is performed by a patient case identity determination unit. The patient case identity determination method includes acquiring a digital slide image from a scanner; requesting a laboratory information system (LIS) to send patient/case information including a preprocessing step image that is obtained in a digital slide preprocessing step associated with the digital slide image; receiving the patient/case information including the preprocessing step image from the LIS; comparatively analyzing a pattern of the digital slide image and the preprocessing step image to calculate a synchronization rate and stores the calculated synchronization rate; and providing information about whether the digital slide image is identical to the patient/case information based on the calculated synchronization rate when a client application provides a reading of the digital slide image.
