  • Patent number: 12164599
    Abstract: Volumetric quantification can be performed for various parameters of an object represented in volumetric data. Multiple views of the object can be generated, and those views provided to a set of neural networks that can generate inferences in parallel. The inferences from the different networks can be used to generate pseudo-labels for the data, for comparison purposes, which enables a co-training loss to be determined for the unlabeled data. The co-training loss can then be used to update the relevant network parameters for the overall data analysis network. If supervised data is also available then the network parameters can further be updated using the supervised loss.

  • Patent number: 12141966
    Abstract: Embodiments described herein provide a method for generating training data for Al based atlas mapping slice localization, and a system and method for using the training data to train a deep learning network. Training data development maps each slice of an input medical image to a position in a full body reference atlas along the longitudinal body axis. The method constructs a landmarking table of 2D slices indicating known anatomic landmarks of a reference subject, and interpolated slices. A final step for obtaining training data uses regression analysis techniques to create a vector of longitudinal axis coordinates of all slices from the input image. The training data is used to train a deep learning model to create an AI-based atlas mapping slice localizer model. The trained AI-based atlas mapping slice localizer model can be applied to generate mapping inputs to autosegmentation models to improve efficiency and reliability of contouring.
