  • Patent number: 11935283
    Abstract: Disclosed are a cranial CT-based grading method and a corresponding system, which relate to the field of medical imaging. The cranial CT-based grading method as disclosed solves the problems of relatively great subjective disparities and poor operability in eye-balling ASPECTS assessment. The grading method includes: determining frames where target image slices are located from to-be-processed multi-frame cranial CT data; extracting target areas; performing infarct judgment on each target area included in the target areas to output an infarct judgment outcome regarding the target area; and outputting a grading outcome based on infarct judgment outcomes regarding all target areas.

  • Publication number: 20240083137
    Abstract: Embodiments of this application provide a composite structure including a substrate layer and a functional layer disposed on a surface of at least one side of the substrate layer. The substrate layer includes a first support member and a second support member that are disposed side by side and a bendable connecting member connected to and disposed between the first support member and the second support member. A material of the first support member and the second support member includes a hard rubber fiber composite material, and the functional layer includes one or more of an electrically conductive layer, a thermally conductive layer, or an impact-resistant layer.

The grading method includes: extracting target areas from to-be-processed multi-frame cranial CT data; performing infarct judgment on each target area included in the target areas to output an infarct judgment outcome regarding the target area; and outputting a grading outcome based on infarct judgment outcomes regarding all target areas. The grading method and system as disclosed may eliminate or mitigate the diagnosis disparities caused by human factors and imaging deviations due to different imaging equipment, and shorten the time taken by human observation, consideration, and bared-eye grading, thereby serving as a computer-aided method to provide reference for medical studies on stroke.

  • Patent number: 10213172
    Abstract: An imaging method includes executing a low-dose preparatory scan to an object by applying tube voltages and tube currents in an x-ray source, and generating a first image of the object corresponding to the low-dose preparatory scan. The method further includes generating image quality estimates and dose estimates view by view at least based on the first image. The method includes optimizing the tube voltages and the tube currents to generate optimal profiles for the tube voltage and the tube current. At least one of the optimal profiles for the tube voltage and the tube current is generated based on the image quality estimates and the dose estimates. The method includes executing an acquisition scan by applying the tube voltages and the tube currents based on the optimal profiles and generating a second image of the object corresponding to the acquisition scan. An imaging system is also provided.
