  • Publication number: 20240070867
    Abstract: The present invention relates to peripheral perfusion measurement. In order to provide more detailed peripheral perfusion characteristics for better knowledge about a current situation, a device (10) for peripheral perfusion measurement is provided that comprises an image data input (12), a data processor (14) and an output interface (16). The image data input receives at least one perfusion angiographic 2D X-ray image of a region of interest of a subject's foot and a 3D foot-model comprising spatial perfusion-related parameters. The data processor registers the 3D foot-model with the foot in the at least one perfusion angiographic X-ray image. The registering comprises a pose-estimation of the foot in the 2D X-ray image. The information is mapped between the 2D image and the 3D foot-model based on the pose-estimation. Image processing modification instructions are identified based on the mapped information.

  • Publication number: 20230404495
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for positioning a subject in medical imaging, comprising: receiving a first image (20) of a region of interest (14, 16) of the subject (S10); determining first positioning data based on the first image (20), wherein the first positioning data indicates an alignment of the region of interest (14, 16) relative to a first image acquisition unit used to acquire the first image (20) (S20); determining guidance data based on the first positioning data, wherein the guidance data comprises a guidance for an alignment of the region of interest (14, 16) relative to a second image acquisition unit used to acquire a second image (60) from a current alignment to a target alignment, wherein the target alignment is to correspond to that derived from the first positioning data (S30); providing the guidance data for acquiring the second image (60) (S40).

  • Publication number: 20230223136
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a system for analysis of medical image data, which represents a two-dimensional or three-dimensional medical image. The system is configured to read and/or determine, for the medical image, a plurality of image quality metrics and to determine a combined quality metrics based on the image quality metrics. The system is further configured so that the determination of the combined quality metrics takes into account an interaction between the image quality metrics in their combined effect on the combined quality metrics.
