  • Patent number: 12220593
    Abstract: A method for applying tumor treating fields, the method comprising: determining, based on two-dimensional (2D) image data associated with a portion of a subject's body, one or more landmarks and one or more skin surface conditions; determining a representation of the one or more landmarks and the one or more skin surface conditions in three-dimensional (3D) space; determining, based on the representation of the one or more landmarks and the one or more skin surface conditions in 3D space, a plurality of placement positions for one or more transducer arrays on the subject's body for applying tumor treating fields; determining, based on the one or more skin surface conditions in 3D space, one or more recommended placement positions of the plurality of placement positions for the one or more transducer arrays; and outputting an indication of the one or more recommended placement positions for the one or more transducer arrays.

  • Publication number: 20250001168
    Abstract: A method for generating a transducer layout for delivering tumor treating fields includes storing medical images of a subject, identifying one of the medical images as an anchor medical image, and registering computed tomography medical images with magnetic resonance imaging medical images. The method further includes segmenting abnormal tissue in the medical images from other tissue types and defining a region of interest (ROI) in the medical images. The method further includes creating a 3D model of the subject. The method further includes generating a plurality of transducer layouts for application of tumor treating fields to the subject, selecting at least two of the transducer layouts as recommended transducer layouts, presenting the recommended transducer layouts, receiving a user selection of at least one recommended transducer layout, and providing a report for the selected recommended transducer layout(s).

  • Publication number: 20250001167
    Abstract: A method for generating a transducer layout for delivering tumor treating fields to a subject includes presenting a user-selectable icon to display a slice through medical images, which can be MRI medical images and CT medical images registered together. The slice includes corresponding slices through the MRI and CT medical images overlaid on each other. The medical images include voxels. The method further includes presenting a user-selectable icon to manually segment the slice through the medical images to obtain a manually segmented slice through the medical images. The method further includes presenting a user-selectable icon to automatically clean up the manually segmented slice to obtain a cleaned up manually segmented slice through the medical images. The method further includes presenting a user-selectable icon to generate transducer layouts for application of tumor treating fields to the subject based on the cleaned up manually segmented slice through the medical images.
