Abstract: Described is a method of providing an estimate of radiation dose received by a patient during an imaging scan performed by an imaging system. The method includes receiving patient information about the patient, receiving scan data generated during the imaging scan of the patient by the imaging system, creating a virtual dose model of the patient based upon the patient information and the scan data, receiving a selection of a region of interest of the patient, performing a dose simulation on the virtual dose model of the patient or a portion thereof, and determining, based upon an outcome of the dose simulation, an estimate of the radiation dose received within the region of interest. The imaging scan can be a partial imaging scan of a portion of the patient. Also provided is a system and software for carrying out this method.

Abstract: A method is provided for authenticating, and establishing and tracking eligibility of a patient to purchase an over-the-counter (OTC) drug from a retailer, the patient using a client device or terminal and the retailer having a server. The server is configured to redirect the client device or terminal to a backend platform to authenticate the patient, access a storage to search for any information that indicates the patient is ineligible to purchase the OTC drug; and without any information that indicates the patient is ineligible, administer a questionnaire to the patient to assess the eligibility for the OTC drug. And the backend platform redirects the client device or terminal back to the server to complete the online sale of the OTC drug to the patient when the patient is eligible, or cancel the online sale of the OTC drug to the patient when the patient is ineligible.
