Abstract: Disclosed are computer-implemented methods and systems for managing the lifestyle of individuals and generation of suggested actions to be taken by a user to improve wellness depending on current user condition. The methods and systems facilitate acquiring multiple biometric and psychophysical parameters of the user and calculating a single wellness index. The wellness index depends on goals, objectives, results, social feedback, rewards, and so forth. The methods and systems may further generate at least one proposed action, wherein the action is to improve the wellness index.

Abstract: Methods and systems for obtaining improved computed tomographic reconstructions are provided. A camera obtains one or more images of a patient while a tomographic scan is performed. A CT scanner obtains one or more tomographic projections. The total number of the one or more tomographic projections obtained during the CT scan is determined. For each of the one or more patient images obtained, a processor correlates the patient image with the one or more tomographic projections, calculates a position of the patient and determines if the calculated position of the patient is greater than one or more predetermined constants. If it is determined that the calculated position of the patient is greater than one or more predetermined constants and a total number of the one or more tomographic projections obtained is less than a predetermined number, separate projections are substituted in the place of the one or more tomographic projections that were correlated to the patient image.

Abstract: In a computed tomography scanner having an emitter for emitting a beam of given radiation through an object to be analysed, a detector for receiving said beam after the beam itself has traversed the object, and a rotating arm, which supports the emitter and the detector and rotates the emitter and the detector about the object along a series of angular positions, there is generated a succession of first pulses, each of which activates the detector in one respective angular position, and a succession of second pulses for activating the emitter so that it will emit a dose of radiation in each angular position, associated to which is a respective dose of radiation in such a way as to pre-define a distribution of doses of radiation along the series of angular positions.

Abstract: In a computed tomography scanner provided with an emitter for emitting a beam of radiation through an object to be analyzed and a detector for acquiring radiographies of the object, the detector generates a synchronization signal corresponding to its state of activation for acquiring the radiographies, and the emitter is controlled via the synchronization signal in such a way that the beam of radiation will be emitted when the detector is already activated.

Abstract: In a computed tomography scanner, the panoramic image of an object to be analysed is reconstructed by: acquiring volumetric tomographic data of the object; extracting, from the volumetric tomographic data, tomographic data corresponding to at least three sections of the object identified by respective mutually parallel planes; determining, on each section extracted, a respective trajectory that a profile of the object follows in an area corresponding to said section; determining a first surface transverse to said planes such as to comprise the trajectories; and generating the panoramic image on the basis of a part of the volumetric tomographic data identified as a function of said surface.
