Patents by Inventor Alexander MASLOWSKI

Alexander MASLOWSKI has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Publication number: 20230285773
    Abstract: Embodiments described herein provide for coupling Monte Carlo source modeling with deterministic dose calculations. An internal volumetric first scatter distributed source of a patient is determined using Monte Carlo simulations and ingested into one or more dosing algorithms. The dosing algorithms use the source model to determine a dose deposition.

  • Publication number: 20230290465
    Abstract: Embodiments described herein provide for training an artificial intelligence model to boost dose depositions. The artificial intelligence model receives medical images and a dose deposition determined according to a first dose deposition model. The artificial intelligence model modifies the received dose deposition determined according to the first dose deposition model such that the dose deposition simulates a dose deposition determined by a second dose deposition model.

  • Patent number: 10098606
    Abstract: In accordance with at least some embodiments of the present disclosure, a process for calculating patient-specific organ dose is presented. The process may include constructing a computed tomography (CT) volume based on CT images generated by a CT scanner. The process may include segmenting the CT volume into a plurality of organ regions, generating a material density map for the CT volume based on Hounsfield Unit (HU) values, and generating a dose distribution map for the CT volume based on the material density map by simulating particles emitting from the CT scanner and flowing through the CT volume. The process may further generate a dose value delivered to a specific organ region of the plurality of organ regions based on the dose distribution map.
