  • Publication number: 20240001067
    Abstract: The present invention relates to attention bias modification treatment. In order to improve the treatment effect, an ABM system is proposed with a neural brain response monitoring device, such as functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), magnetoencephalography (MEG), and/or electroencephalography (EEG), to provide real-time information regarding neural brain responses in order to personalize and optimize the ABM treatment.

  • Publication number: 20230375649
    Abstract: It is proposed to obtain information about a stress or anxiety level of a subject within a predetermined time period before, during and/or after a capture time of a fMRI scan image. Using this information, embodiments may provide additional/supplementary information that may aid, assist or otherwise improve interpretation of the fMRI scan image.

  • Publication number: 20230181117
    Abstract: A system provides quality control in medical imaging Noise sources are evaluated which can adversely affect the image quality. The noise sources which are evaluated comprise at least two of a device noise source, an operator noise source and a subject (the patient being imaged) noise source, all creating sources of noise during the acquisition of the medical image. A quality control indicator is determined and output to the operator based on the evaluated noise sources.

  • Publication number: 20230084602
    Abstract: A breathing guidance system is provided for guiding the breathing of a user during a magnetic resonance imaging procedure. A target breathing rate is determined for the user which is in synchronism with the sounds, such as clicking sounds, generated by the MRI scanner. In this way, an improved signal to noise ratio is obtained for the scanned image by controlling the breathing of the user to be regular.

  • Patent number: 7187250
    Abstract: A coupler (10) having a first line (1) and a second line (2) also comprises a resonant structure (3) including a capacitor (5) and an inductor (4). The coupler (10) thus delivers a coupling signal S31 that is substantially frequency independent over a frequency domain above the resonance frequency of the resonant structure (3). Also, the signal S31 has a high degree of directivity. The coupler (10) can be provided as part of an integrated electronic component, such as a multilayer substrate, a thin-film module or an IC. It can be applied in an electronic device (100) between a power amplifier (101) and an antenna (103). The coupling signal S31 will thus be provided to a controlling circuit (102).

  • Patent number: 7032828
    Abstract: The invention relates to a substrate which is made from paper and is provided with at least one integrated circuit which is produced from a semiconductive organic polymer. A semiconductive organic polymer of this nature, when used as the base material for the integrated circuit, leads to the possibility of directly producing the substrate in the required thickness, to the need for support layers and/or protective layers being eliminated, and to the possibility of reducing the cost price of the substrate compared to substrates which comprise an integrated circuit of the silicon type.
