  • Patent number: 12232902
    Abstract: A system is described for generating a revascularization score for a blockage of a coronary artery in a heart. The system accesses indications of viability of myocardial tissue in the heart, a blockage state of the blockage that includes a blockage location and a blockage amount, and the perfusion territory of the myocardial tissue. Based on the myocardial tissue state, blockage state, and perfusion territory, the system generates a revascularization score for the blockage. The system generates a graphic of the heart that illustrates coronary arteries, myocardial tissue state, blockage state, and the revascularization score. The system displays the graphic to provide a visual representation of the revascularization score for the blockage of the coronary artery.

  • Patent number: 12213742
    Abstract: A system is provided for generating an ablation plan for an ablation procedure to be performed on a body part of a patient having an abnormal pattern of electrical activity. The system receives patient data that includes a patient cardiogram, a patient body part image; and patient health data. The system employs an ablation target system to identify an ablation target within the body part based on at least some of the patient data. The system also employs an ablation plan system to identify, based on at least some of the patient data and the ablation target, an ablation plan that includes target parameter values for ablation device parameters for controlling an ablation device. The ablation plan system is developed based on data that includes data sets with patient data associated with an ablation plan. The system then outputs an indication of the ablation target and the ablation plan.

  • Patent number: 6540877
    Abstract: An improvement is disclosed over conventional internal sizing of stock furnish for papermaking, wherein alum is added to the thick paper stock and the long retention time permits complete reaction with the fibers. The invention process permits successfully adding novel aluminum rosinate size composition unconventionally in thin stock furnish, where retention times are on the order of less that 1 minute. The highly charged aluminum rosinate size is able to be quickly adsorbed onto the fiber surfaces to permit surprisingly efficient sizing in thin stock. The quick sizing avoids concern with rising pH over time (in conventional thick stock application) and increases sizing efficiency.
