| 20140050378 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DETECTING MATERIALS OR DISEASE STATES USING MULTI-ENERGY COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY - The disclosed embodiments relate to characterizing or quantifying an element or composition of interest within an imaged volume. In accordance with one embodiment, high and low energy images are acquired of a volume of interest using a polychromatic emission source. The high and low energy images are processed to generate monochromatic images. Based on the observed attenuation within the monochromatic images, one or more elements or compositions of interest are characterized within the imaged volume. | 02-20-2014 |
| 20140270427 | METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR ASSESSING IMAGE QUALITY IN MODELING OF PATIENT ANATOMIC OR BLOOD FLOW CHARACTERISTICS - Systems and methods are disclosed for assessing the quality of medical images of at least a portion of a patient's anatomy, using a computer system. One method includes receiving one or more images of at least a portion of the patient's anatomy; determining, using a processor of the computer system, one or more image properties of the received images; performing, using a processor of the computer system, anatomic localization or modeling of at least a portion of the patient's anatomy based on the received images; obtaining an identification of one or more image characteristics associated with an anatomic feature of the patient's anatomy based on the anatomic localization or modeling; and calculating, using a processor of the computer system, an image quality score based on the one or more image properties and the one or more image characteristics. | 09-18-2014 |
