  • Systems and methods of constrained reconstruction of images with white noise
    Patent number: 11435424
    Abstract: A magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system can include a processor and a memory. The processor can receive an acquired magnetic resonance (MR) dataset having a first signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). The processor can extract, from the acquired MR dataset, a first set of values corresponding to a first variable having a second SNR and a second set of values corresponding to a second variable. The processor can apply a constraint function that includes a function of the first variable and the second variable. The processor can minimize a cost function according to the constraint function to generate a cost function solution. The processor can input the first variable and the second variable into the cost function solution to generate a modified first variable having a third SNR, the third SNR being greater than the second SNR.

  • FAR-UVC DEVICE FOR USE IN INACTIVATING AIRBORNE PATHOGENS
    Publication number: 20220218864
    Abstract: A far-UVC device for eliminating airborne pathogens includes a plenum, a fan, an LED array, and a filter. Air enters through an inlet and passes through the plenum until it exits out the outlet. The filter is located within the plenum adjacent to either the outlet or the inlet. The LED array emits a UV light on the passing air to inactivate airborne pathogens. The fan regulates the flow rate of the air through the plenum. The fan maintains a positive flow of air through the device and eventually exhausts the disinfected air out the outlet. One or more baffles are located within the plenum to direct the air flow through the device.
