Peter Michael Jakob Dueppenbecker 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).

  • Modelling of ToF-DOI detector arrays
    Patent number: 9335425
    Abstract: The invention is directed to several crystal arrangements for time-of-flight (ToF) positron emission tomography (PET) with depth of interaction (DOI) encoding for high spatial, energy and timing resolution. Additionally, several implementations of the ToF-DOI PET detector arrays are proposed with related measurements which all show that no timing degradation is visible in the used setup for first photon trigger for digital silicon photo multipliers (dSiPMs).
    Type: Grant

  • REDUCING INTERFERENCE IN A COMBINED SYSTEM COMPRISING AN MRI SYSTEM AND A NON-MR IMAGING SYSTEM
    Publication number: 20160045112
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and a system for reducing interference between a non-MR imaging system (e.g. a PET imaging scanner) and an MR imaging system. The method comprises receiving at least a signal indicative of the MR RF signal detection period, and in response to the received signal, setting the state of at least a portion of the non-MR imaging system to an inactive state during at least a portion of the MR RF signal detection period.
