Patent number: 10460439Abstract: Methods and systems for identifying biologic subtypes in a biological specimen may include receiving a data set associated with a cohort of biological specimens, determining a potential number of clusters associated with the data set, associating a cluster with one or more data points in the data set, associating a cluster label with the one or more data points in the data set, treating a related cluster as a biologic subtype and associating a biologic subtype with one or more data points with regions of interest in the data set, establishing duster features and metrics in the data set, determining if a new biologic subtype is identified by comparing the biologic subtype associated with the regions of interest with known biologic subtypes, and discovering a new diagnostic, prognostic, predictive, and/or therapeutic biologic subtype by correlating a new biologic subtype with patient, prognostic, predictive, therapeutic and/or clinical trial data.Type: GrantFiled: August 12, 2016Date of Patent: October 29, 2019Assignee: CIRECA THERANOSTICS, LLCInventors: Stanley H. Remiszewski, Max Diem, Xinying Mu, Clay M. Thompson, Aysegul Ergin

Patent number: 10067051Abstract: A method for analyzing biological specimens by spectral imaging to provide a medical diagnosis includes obtaining spectral and visual images of biological specimens and registering the images to detect cell abnormalities, pre-cancerous cells, and cancerous cells. This method eliminates the bias and unreliability of diagnoses that is inherent in standard histopathological and other spectral methods. In addition, a method for correcting confounding spectral contributions that are frequently observed in microscopically acquired infrared spectra of cells and tissue includes performing a phase correction on the spectral data. This phase correction method may be used to correct various types of absorption spectra that are contaminated by reflective components.Type: GrantFiled: January 27, 2015Date of Patent: September 4, 2018Assignees: CIRECA THERANOSTICS, LLC, NORTHEASTERN UNIVERSITYInventors: Max Diem, Benjamin Bird, Milos Miljkovic, Stanley H. Remiszewski, Clay M. Thompson

Patent number: 10043054Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for classifying a biological sample that include receiving an image of a biological sample and applying one or more algorithms from a data repository to the image, generating a classification of the biological sample based on the outcome of the one or more algorithms applied to the image, and transmitting the classification for presentation on a display or via another medium. The methods, systems, and devices may also include features for developing a data master reference and/or other correlation/translation features to enable comparison of data sets from one platform to another or from one machine to another or from the same machine at different points in time.Type: GrantFiled: October 19, 2015Date of Patent: August 7, 2018Assignee: CIRECA THERANOSTICS, LLCInventors: Stanley H. Remiszewski, Max Diem, Clay M. Thompson, Aysegul Ergin, Xinying Mu, Mark Kon

Publication number: 20180025210Abstract: The methods, devices, and systems may allow a practitioner to obtain information regarding a biological sample, including analytical data, a medical diagnosis, and/or a prognosis or predictive analysis. The method, devices, and systems may provide a grade or level of development for identified diseases. In addition, the methods, devices and systems may generate a confidence value for the predictive classifications generated, which may, for example be generated in a format to show such confidence value or other feature in a graphical representation (e.g., a color code). Further, the methods, devices and system may aid in the identification and discovery of new classes and tissue sub-types.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 18, 2017Publication date: January 25, 2018Inventors: Stanley H. REMISZEWSKI, Clay M. THOMPSON, Max DIEM, Aysegul ERGIN
