  • Retained object tag and detection method
    Patent number: 10357183
    Abstract: A retained object tag, and a method of detecting the presence of a retained object or the retained object tag in a medical image. The method can include different steps such as identifying one or more potential sites in the medical image where the retained object or retained object tag may be present. The method can also include analyzing one or more features of the identified potential site against one or more predetermined properties of the retained object or the retained object tag. And the method can include determining whether the identified potential site is a retained object or a retained object tag based in part or more upon the analyzed feature.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 4, 2013
    Date of Patent: July 23, 2019
    Assignee: The Regents of the University of Michigan
