  • Publication number: 20230277061
    Abstract: Disclosed are techniques for identifying and displaying spatial relationships between a seed parcel and other parcels in a patient's brain. A method can include obtaining connectivity data characterizing, for each pair of parcels including a first parcel and a second parcel from a group of parcels, a connectivity metric measuring a relationship between the first and second parcels in the patient's brain, obtaining brain atlas data, identifying a seed parcel from the group of parcels, determining one or more other parcels in the group of parcels having a connectivity metric with the seed parcel that satisfies a threshold connectivity metric condition to provide at least one seed-connected parcel, and for the seed-connected parcel, providing the brain atlas data and an indication of a degree of the connectivity metric between the seed parcel and seed-connected parcel for display as an overlay on a visualization of the brain atlas data.

  • Patent number: 9522925
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a new modality of photodynamic therapy (PDT) through the design of the present invention's truly dual-functional—PDT and imaging—gadolinium complex (Gd—N) with a molecular formula of: which can target cancer, cells specifically. The present invention provides a PDT drug that can specifically localize on the anionic cell membrane of cancer cells in which its laser-excited photoemission signal can be monitored without triggering the phototoxic generation of reactive oxygen species—singlet oxygen—prior to due excitation. The present invention also provides the use of Gd—N as a tumor selective PDT photosensitizer modality.
