  • Publication number: 20190219655
    Abstract: Disclosed is the use of magnetic resonance imaging in the medical field. One issue addressed is the compensating of respiratory movements in the obtained images with magnetic resonance imaging. For this, the method proposes to choose a reference image in the initial set, the determined position for the reference image being a reference position and to compensate the difference between the determined position and the reference position to obtain a corrected set of images for each image of the initial set. Such method can be implemented in a computer and may be used to provide additional functionalities to magnetic resonance imager and renders the taking of images by a magnetic resonance imager easier.

  • Publication number: 20190204402
    Abstract: The invention relates to liver diseases. Liver diseases notably encompass chronic liver disease and liver cancer (a liver primitive cancer or metastasis). There is therefore a need to be able to extract biomarkers for subjects to suffer from this disease. As a consequence, the inventors worked on a method for post-processing images of a region of interest to obtain at least one perfusion parameter and at least one transport parameter. Such method enables to obtain a method which can be implemented on computer and provides access to relevant parameters for liver diseases in an easier and more accurate way. This method may be applied for predicting that a subject is at risk of suffering from such disease, diagnosing a disease, identifying a therapeutic or a biomarker and screening compounds useful as a medicine.
