Abstract: A method for removing uninterested attributes from multi-modality data may include: receiving, by a multi-modality attribute removal computer program executed by an electronic device, multi-modality data comprising a plurality of modalities from a data source, wherein data in each modality are related; receiving, by the multi-modality attribute removal computer program, an uninterested attribute in the multi-modality data to remove; training, by the multi-modality attribute removal computer program, a modality-focused encoder for each modality of the multi-modality data to remove the uninterested attribute using a removal loss and a retention loss for the respective modality; receiving, by the multi-modality attribute removal computer program, a multi-modality data set for processing; and processing, by the multi-modality attribute removal computer program, the multi-modality data set using the modality-focused encoders, wherein the processing results in a processed multi-modality data set with the uninterest

Abstract: An expandable braid device attached to a guidewire acts to both house radiation and to expose a stenosis site to such radiation as a function of the braid's collapsed or deployed configuration. The expandable braid device, in a closed configuration, shields a radioactive inner core of the braid as it is advanced to and located at a stenosis site and, in an expanded configuration, exposes the radioactive inner core to the stenosis site in order to irradiate such site.
