  • Publication number: 20240057870
    Abstract: In part, the disclosure relates to method of displaying a representation of an artery. The method may include storing an intravascular image dataset in a memory device of a diagnostic imaging system, the intravascular image dataset generated in response to intravascular imaging of a segment of an artery; automatically detecting lumen boundary of the segment on a per frame basis; automatically detecting EEL and displaying a stent sizing workflow. In part, the disclosure also relates to automatically detecting one or more regions of calcium relative to lumen boundary of the segment; calculating an angular or circumferential measurement of detected calcium for one or more frames; calculating a calcium thickness of detected calcium for one or more frames; and displaying the calcium thickness and the angular or circumferential measurement of detected calcium for a first frame of the one or more frames.

  • Publication number: 20240046476
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides systems and methods to receiving OCT or IVUS image data frames to output one or more representations of a blood vessel segment. The image data frames may be stretched and/or aligned using various windows or bins or alignment features. Arterial features, such as the calcium burden, may be detected in each of the image data frames. The arterial features may be scored. The score may be a stent under-expansion risk. The representation may include an indication of the arterial features and their respective score. The indication may be a color coded indication.

  • Patent number: 8915268
    Abstract: A liquefied gas storage/delivery system and method that includes a liquefied gas storage system. The liquefied gas storage system includes a housing containing a storage vessel suited to contain a supply of liquefied gas, such as liquid oxygen (LOX). A rotatable turntable is provided on an exterior surface of the housing. An interface shaped to match the shape of at least a portion of a portable liquid storage/delivery device is provide in or on the turntable. A connector is disposed in the interface that couples to a corresponding connector on the portable liquid storage/delivery device. The two connectors are coupled by placing the portable liquid storage/delivery device in the interface and rotating the turntable.
