  • Patent number: 11096602
    Abstract: Methods and systems for characterizing tissue of a subject include acquiring and receiving data for a plurality of time series of fluorescence images, identifying one or more attributes of the data relevant to a clinical characterization of the tissue, and categorizing the data into clusters based on the attributes such that the data in the same cluster are more similar to each other than the data in different clusters, wherein the clusters characterize the tissue. The methods and systems further include receiving data for a subject time series of fluorescence images, associating a respective cluster with each of a plurality of subregions in the subject time series of fluorescence images, and generating a subject spatial map based on the clusters for the plurality of subregions in the subject time series of fluorescence images. The generated spatial maps may then be used as input for tissue diagnostics using supervised machine learning.
