Publication number: 20180184464Abstract: A system and method for automatically pairing local electronic devices with a gateway after registration of such electronic devices by a manufacturer. A lookup table is generated from the registration information and stored on an information platform connected to the gateway. A unique identification code, such as a 2D barcode, is assigned to each registered device. A scan of the barcode by the gateway retrieves information about the device which is then compared to the information on the lookup table of the information platform. If a match exists, pairing information is sent to the gateway and the device is automatically paired with the gateway at power up. Traditional pairing between the electronic device and the gateway can be accomplished when no match is found using a cellular phone.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 10, 2017Publication date: June 28, 2018Inventor: Joseph Y. Fang

Patent number: 8818066Abstract: A grid computing system and method is provided for medical data processing. The grid computing system comprises a software infrastructure, and an imaging device capable of interfacing with the software infrastructure over a distributed electronic network. Also included is a plurality of CPUs capable of interfacing with the software infrastructure over the network. The performance of the plurality of CPUs is dependent on balancing load. A large medical dataset is split onto several processing nodes of the plurality of CPUs, respectively, such that performance and power is increased. In the grid computing method, a grid is limited to a nuclear medicine or radiology network. A tight and easy configuration management of computing nodes, and a tight load balancing between standardized nodes are provided. An existing network of CPUs is utilized, such that the greatest benefit is provided at the lowest cost.Type: GrantFiled: September 6, 2012Date of Patent: August 26, 2014Assignee: Siemens Medical Solutions USA, Inc.Inventors: Xavier Battle, Joseph Y.

Patent number: 8184889Abstract: A method for iterative reconstruction of tomographic images of an object of interest includes obtaining data corresponding to a field of view of a detector, processing the data to prepare a reconstruction support region corresponding to a region within the field of view encompassing the object, and reconstructing a tomographic image using the reconstruction support region. Preferably, the data corresponding to the field of view includes at least one of a projection image of the object, an orbit location of a detector relative to a center of rotation of the detector, or an attenuation coefficient map of the object, which data can be used to describe a reconstruction support region corresponding to the object.Type: GrantFiled: September 29, 2008Date of Patent: May 22, 2012Assignee: Siemens Medical Solutions USA, Inc.Inventors: Joseph Y.
