  • Patent number: 11967085
    Abstract: A medical image processing apparatus including processing circuitry configured to: obtain from medical imaging measurements, observations of one or more vector or tensor valued fields as projected from one or more 2D acquisition planes; use an optimisation procedure to determine from the observations a superset of 3D fields (which may be scalar, vector, or tensor) via a solution ansatz constrained by a system of partial differential equations, and output the plurality of these fields.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 11, 2021
    Date of Patent: April 23, 2024
    Assignee: CANON MEDICAL SYSTEMS CORPORATION
    Inventors: Murray Cutforth, Ewan Hemingway
  • Publication number: 20230326011
    Abstract: A medical image processing apparatus comprises processing circuitry configured to: receive medical image data that comprises or is obtained from scan data representing an anatomical region in which a sub-region is enhanced; predict, using a trained model, mask data from the medical imaging data, wherein the mask data is representative of the anatomical region without enhancement of the sub-region; and predict, using the trained model or a further trained model, subtraction data from the same medical image data, wherein the subtraction data is representative of the same anatomical region; wherein the processing circuitry is further configured to apply at least one constraint to obtain constrained subtraction data.
