  • NORMALIZED STANDARD DEVIATION TRANSITION BASED DOSIMETRY MONITORING FOR LASER TREATMENT
    Publication number: 20200350055
    Abstract: Technologies are generally described for normalized standard deviation transition based dosimetry monitoring for laser treatment. In some examples, a response signal may be generated based on a physical response to a laser pulse detected through acoustic or optical means. Each response signal may be a time series of data with a number of points. Standard deviation may be determined for each response signal and normalized using a mean or comparable normalization factor. Thus, a robust distribution may be computed from the response to each laser pulse. A change in the normalized standard deviation from each single pulse's time domain response data may be used to determine how many laser pulses remain before completion of the treatment (similar to event onset response). Thus, laser treatment may be continued based on an estimation of remaining pulses for completion or ceased if completion is reached.

  • REAL-TIME TREATMENT ADJUSTMENT BASED ON DOSIMETRIC DATA
    Publication number: 20200345543
    Abstract: Technologies are generally described for customization of treatment based on dosimetric data collected during the treatment. In some examples, a laser treatment procedure may involve the application of multiple laser pulses to a treatment site. During the laser treatment procedure, an effect resulting from the application of one or more of the laser pulses may result in dosimetric data, such as acoustic and/or optical data. The dosimetric data may then be used to determine the efficacy of the laser treatment procedure and/or to adjust, in real-time, a remainder of the laser treatment procedure.

At estimation time, incoming events may be grouped using similar groupings as those used during training to select which model to use. An incoming event may be applied to the neural network operations of the selected model to generate an estimate. Generating an estimate may involve successive applications of multiple linear convolutions and other steps along varying or alternating dimensions of the in-process data.
