  • Publication number: 20230238117
    Abstract: Techniques of facilitating operation of a user node to obtain medical imaging data of a patient are disclosed. At least one instance of medical imaging data of the patient is obtained based on semantic information associated with the at least one instance of the medical imaging data. The semantic information is obtained, from a first data repository of a network, based on patient information of the patient.

  • Publication number: 20190156958
    Abstract: A system operable to provide healthcare data to a user device in a healthcare network includes a plurality of data sources including healthcare data. The system maintains a first plurality of associations between a first plurality of the data sources and healthcare data stored therein. In response to a request for healthcare data from the user device, the system determines whether the requested healthcare data can be retrieved based on the first plurality of associations. If the requested healthcare data cannot be retrieved, the system causes a second association in relation to a second data source including the requested healthcare data to be detected and stored. The system retrieves the requested healthcare data from the second data source and transmits it for receipt by the user device.

  • Patent number: 8762159
    Abstract: An audio decoder for providing a decoded audio information on the basis of an encoded audio information includes a window-based signal transformer configured to map a time-frequency representation, which is described by the encoded audio information, to a time-domain representation. The window-based signal transformer is configured to select a window, out of a plurality of windows including windows of different transition slopes and windows of different transform length, on the basis of a window information. The audio decoder includes a window selector configured to evaluate a variable-codeword-length window information in order to select a window for a processing of a given portion of the time-frequency representation associated with a given frame of the audio information.

  • Patent number: 8522208
    Abstract: An effective and user-friendly system is disclosed for creating and running a software application for medical imaging, having at least one framework which has a service layer and a superordinate toolkit layer as an application programming interface, wherein functions of the toolkit layer and of the service layer are grouped in each case in a number of components which are arranged strictly hierarchically in such a way that any component can only ever be accessed from a superordinate component.
