Publication number: 20230122152Abstract: Various aspects of methods, systems, and use cases may be used to train a model to determine whether a patient is a candidate for receiving an endoluminal valve based on collateral ventilation data. A method may include receiving sensor data based on pressure or airflow at a target portion of a lung of a patient that is occluded from receiving air via a breathing airway of the lung. The method may include training a machine learning model, based at least in part on training data (e.g., based on the sensor data), to predict patient breathing outcomes via an indication of whether collateral ventilation is present in a particular patient target lung portion.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 19, 2022Publication date: April 20, 2023Inventors: Matthew E. Nickeson, Torsten M. Lyon

Publication number: 20230115733Abstract: A system and method are presented for applying convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to aid in rapid on-site evaluation cytopathology. Image data are acquired from a biopsy slide. Areas of interest are determined using a first CNN. The image data is segmented into image tiles, and tiles showing the areas of interest are analyzed using a second CNN to assign a histologic category to the slide. The second CNN also utilizes site specific data relating to the biopsy location. Layered image data from multiple focal planes can be acquired of the slide and used as input to the second CNN. Categorized tiles are sorted and presented to a remote computing system for cytopathology determinations, aided by the results of applying the second CNN. Semantic segmentation can also be developed, both as input to the second CNN and as data presented to the remote computer system.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 7, 2022Publication date: April 13, 2023Applicant: Veran Medical Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Jayson Oldfather, Mark Hunter, Troy L.

Publication number: 20220225896Abstract: A method includes receiving during a first time interval associated with a path of motion of a dynamic body, image data associated with a plurality of images of the dynamic body. The plurality of images include an indication of a position of a first marker coupled to a garment at a first location, and a position of a second marker coupled to the garment at a second location. The garment is coupled to the dynamic body. During a second time interval, an image from the plurality of images is automatically identified that includes a position of the first marker that is substantially the same as a position of a first localization element relative to the dynamic body and a position of the second marker that is substantially the same as a position of the second localization element relative to the dynamic body.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 5, 2022Publication date: July 21, 2022Applicant: Veran Medical Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Jerome R. Edwards, Troy L. Holsing, Torsten M. Lyon, Evan Austill, JR., Christopher Lee

The image data includes an indication of the positions of a first marker and a second marker on a garment coupled to the dynamic body. The first marker and second marker are each coupled to the garment at a first and second locations, respectively. A distance is determined between the position of the first marker and the second marker. During a second time interval after the first time interval, data associated with a position of a first and second localization element that are each coupled to the garment is received. A distance between the first and second localization elements is determined.
