Patent number: 11965950Abstract: A method for generating a perfusion weighted image using arterial spin labeling (ASL) with segmented acquisitions includes dividing an anatomical area of interest into a plurality of slices and performing a multi-band (MB) echo planar imaging (EPI) acquisition process using a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system to acquire a control image dataset representative of the plurality of slices using a central-to-peripheral or peripheral-to-central slice acquisition order. An ASL preparation process is performed using the MRI system to magnetically label protons in arterial blood water in an area upstream from the anatomical area of interest. Following a post-labeling delay time period, the MB EPI acquisition process is performed to a labeled image dataset corresponding to the slices using the central-to-peripheral or peripheral-to-central slice acquisition order. A perfusion weighted image of the anatomical area is generated by subtracting the labeled image dataset from the control image dataset.Type: GrantFiled: July 29, 2019Date of Patent: April 23, 2024Assignees: Siemens Healthineers AG, Regents of the University of MinnesotaInventors: Xiufeng Li, Gregory J.

Patent number: 11926103Abstract: An approach to precision additive fabrication uses jetting of cationic compositions in conjunction with a non-contact (e.g., optical) feedback approach. By not requiring contact to control the surface geometry of the object being manufactured, the approach is tolerant of the relative slow curing of the cationic composition, while maintaining the benefit of control of the deposition processes according to feedback during the fabrication processes. This approach provides a way to manufacture precision objects and benefit from material properties of the fabricated objects, for example, with isotropic properties, which may be at least partially a result of the slow curing, and flexible structures, which may not be attainable using conventional jetted acrylates.Type: GrantFiled: November 12, 2021Date of Patent: March 12, 2024Assignee: Inkbit, LLCInventors: Wenshou Wang, Gregory Ellson, Yan Zhang, Desai Chen, Javier Ramos, Wojciech Matusik, Kiril Vidimce
