Abstract: Systems and methods for managing a document request, the method comprising receiving, from a first healthcare entity, at least one medical document associated with a patient at a server. The method further comprising receiving, from a second healthcare entity, a medical document request where the medical document request may be directed to one of an image, a financial statement, a prescription, a referral to healthcare entity, or a report. The method further comprising determining, based on the document request, whether a legal document is required to approve the request. The method further comprising, sending, in response to the request requiring approval from a legal entity, to a legal entity associated with the patient a legal document request related to the medical document request.

Abstract: A method of assessing stenosis severity for a patient includes generating a three dimensional model of a lesion specific vessel tree of the patient. A plurality of inlet and outlet positions are identified in the lesion tree. A total flow rate from the vessel tree model is estimated. A processor and task specific software are utilized to perform computational fluid dynamic simulation on the vessel tree. A flow rate and apparent flow resistance for each of the outlets is then determined. At least one ideal model is generated. A computational fluid dynamic simulation is performed on the at least one ideal model. A level of stenosis severity is determined for each of the outlets.

Abstract: The present invention relates generally to mill blank constructions to facilitate the manufacture of dental restorations. A given mill blank is formed in a shape (i.e. with a given geometry) that has been predetermined to reduce material waste when the mill blank is machined into the final part. A set of two or more blanks each having such characteristics comprise a smart blank “library.” In one embodiment, a smart blank library includes a sufficient number of unique blanks such that, when the geometry of the designed restoration is known, the smart blank with a highest yield can be selected for use in milling the restoration. The “yield” of a given smart blank represents the amount of material of the smart blank that is actually used in the final restoration. Automated processes for smart blank inventory management and smart blank selection are also described.
