  • Publication number: 20240420388
    Abstract: A computer implemented method for reconstructing a volumetric medical image of a patient from Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) projections of the patient can comprise using a shared Neural Field (NF) to generate a volumetric field of attenuation coefficients from the CBCT projections. The shared NF can be modulated by a patient specific NF. The method can further comprise mapping the volumetric field of attenuation coefficients to a volumetric image of the patient.

  • Publication number: 20240371494
    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for performing operations comprising: receiving multi-parametric input data representing data associated with a patient; receiving an indication of a disease associated with the patient; processing the multi-parametric input data to generate one or more metrics corresponding to a plurality of different modalities for treating the disease associated with the patient; selecting, based on the one or more metrics, a given modality from the plurality of different modalities to treat the disease associated with the patient; and configuring parameters of the given modality based on a portion of the multi-parametric input data.

  • Patent number: 10315049
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method, a system or a non-transitory computer-readable medium of doing the same, for monitoring movement of anatomical features throughout a radiation treatment session. The method may include monitoring the movement of the anatomical features with a first modality. The method may further include obtaining positional information of the anatomical features with a second modality over a finite acquisition time. The method may also include providing an indication of a clinically relevant movement associated with the anatomical features during the finite acquisition time based on the monitored movement from the first modality.

  • Publication number: 20050015624
    Abstract: Described are techniques used in monitoring the performance, security and health of a system used in an industrial application. Agents included in the industrial network report data to an appliance or server. The appliance stores the data and determines when an alarm condition has occurred. Notifications are sent upon detecting an alarm condition. The alarm thresholds may be user defined. A threat thermostat controller determines a threat level used to control the connectivity of a network used in the industrial application.
