  • Patent number: 11282197
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides an operating method of a system for analyzing brain tissue based on computerized tomographic imaging, and the operation method includes steps as follows. A computed tomography image of a subject is aligned to a predetermined standard brain space image, to obtain a first normalized test computed tomography image. A voxel contrast of the first normalized test computed tomography image is enhanced to obtain an enhanced first normalized test computed tomography image. The enhanced first normalized test computed tomography image is aligned to an average computed tomographic image of a control group to obtain a second normalized test computed tomography image. An analysis based on the second normalized test computed tomography image and a plurality of computerized tomographic images of the control group is performed to obtain a t-score map.

  • Patent number: 11042983
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides an operating method of an automatic brain infarction detection system on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), which includes steps as follows. Images corresponding to different slices of a brain of a subject are received from the MRI machine. The image mask process is performed on first and second images of the images. It is determined whether the cerebellum image intensity and the brain image intensity in the first image are matched. When the cerebellum image intensity and the brain image intensity are not matched, the cerebellar image intensity in the first image is adjusted. The first image is processed through a nonlinear regression to obtain a third image. A neural network identify an infarct region by using the first, second and third images that are cut.
