Patent number: 10684339Abstract: Systems and methods for producing pseudo-CT images using a dual flip angle multi-echo ultra-short echo time (DUFA-MUTE) MRI method are disclosed. The DUFA-MUTE MRI imaging method includes obtaining MR signals according to a DUFA-MUTE MRI sequence that includes first and second multiple ultrashort echo time (MUTE) sequence characterized by first and second flip angles FA1/FA2, and in which both MUTE sequences obtain MR signals at first and second echo times TE1/TE2. HU values are assigned to each imaged voxel based on each voxel's R1 value calculated from the MR signals, as well as each voxel's assigned tissue type. The imaged voxels and assigned HU values are combined to produce a pseudo-CT image. Pseudo-CT images optionally form the basis for attenuation maps suitable for use in combined PET/MRI systems and/or electron density maps suitable for use in radiation therapy systems.Type: GrantFiled: January 16, 2018Date of Patent: June 16, 2020Assignee: WASHINGTON UNIVERSITYInventors: Hongyu An, Meher Juttukonda, Cihat Eldeniz, Yasheng Chen

Patent number: 7784388Abstract: A blade clamping device comprises a main body which includes two opposited sidewalls and a base plate connected therebetween for defining a cavity for receiving a blade therein. A fixing device mounted between the two sidewalls. A pivot lever is pivotly mounted on the main body about an axis for driving the fixing device to fix or release the blade. A spring is biased between the main body and the pivot lever, which can hold the pivot lever in a predetermined position at which the fixing device clamps the blade tightly. The blade clamping device of the present invention can be kept in the position where the blade is released such that the blade can be easily detached or inserted as required. Furthermore, the operation becomes convenient and easy because of the short moving distance of the operation handle when an operator turns round the pivot lever to fix or release blade.Type: GrantFiled: May 17, 2007Date of Patent: August 31, 2010Assignee: Chervon LimitedInventor: Yasheng Chen
