  • Systems and methods for detecting edema by fusing hyperspectral and visible image
    Patent number: 12076162
    Abstract: System and method for detecting and monitoring edema in a patient are described. Initially, a patient's tissue is irradiated with light by a light source. A detector collects reflected light from the patient's tissue and generates data associated with the reflected light. A processing device receives the data and reflected light and calculates an intensity of the reflected light. The processing device then determined, based upon the intensity of the reflected light, whether the patient's tissue exhibits any symptoms of edema. Additionally, the processing device can compare a current intensity of the reflected light against historic information to monitor for any changes in a patient's edema level or severity.

  • QUANTIFICATION OF HEART FAILURE USING MOLECULAR CHEMICAL IMAGING
    Publication number: 20200245930
    Abstract: Systems and methods of detecting and monitoring edema in a subject are described. The systems and methods include light sources, image detectors, filters, and processors that determine whether a subject has edema and the degree of severity. In some embodiments, the processor fuses data from more than one imaging modality.
