  • Patent number: 9414747
    Abstract: Systems and methods of integrating a virtual prosthesis with a tissue model are presented. Tissue characteristics and prosthesis characteristics can be leveraged to construct observable tissue models that present a model of mutual deformation, especially a time-varying mutual deformation, of a tissue and a possible prosthesis. The mutual deformation indicates how the tissue and prosthesis impact each other over time, possibly on a voxel-by-voxel basis based on deformable registration techniques.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 30, 2012
    Date of Patent: August 16, 2016
    Assignee: Qi Imaging, LLC
    Inventors: Heather Anne Brown, Robert Royea
  • Publication number: 20130237804
    Abstract: Systems for providing time varying density signatures of tissues are presented. The time varying density signatures can be calculated based on obtained sensor data reflecting one or more properties (e.g., physical, mechanical, electrical, etc.) of a target tissue. The time varying density signatures can then be used to generate an output where the output indicates how a target tissue's density changes with respect to time, possibly based on first, second, third, or higher order derivatives with respect to time.

  • Publication number: 20130231548
    Abstract: A tissue analysis system is disclosed. Tissue analysis systems include sensors that acquire signals originating from a target tissue and representative of a tissue property. A signal converter converts the signals to property measurements. An analysis engine can derive a variation of one tissue property with respect to another property and present the variation within a deformable registration imaging devices.
