Patent number: 12383218Abstract: A method for determining a patient radiation and diagnostic study score associated with past diagnostic radiologic tests. In light of the obvious benefits of diagnostic radiology, the risks inherent in its use are often overlooked. Ionizing radiation, which is a component of much, but not all, diagnostic radiology, carries with it a small risk of inducing cancer every time it is used. The present method for determining a patient radiation and diagnostic study score provides right time, right place, and right format radiology information to assist providers in their medical decision-making. With greater awareness of recent study history, and individually contextualized risk and benefit considerations, providers are more likely to decrease their overall usage of diagnostic radiology and better counsel their patients on future risk.Type: GrantFiled: July 1, 2022Date of Patent: August 12, 2025Assignee: CLINICENTRIC, LLCInventors: James Huizenga, Brian C. Breneman, Kathleen Huizenga

Patent number: 12347524Abstract: The invention is a diagnostic which overlays quantum mechanical analysis to x-ray crystallography or Cryo-EM data from one or more molecules, to assess and identify the real world conformation, protonation and solvent effects of one or more moieties in said molecule.
