    Patent Issued for Patient anatomy and task specific automatic exposure control i n computed tomography (USPTO 12002204)

    108-112页
    查看更多>>摘要:By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Robotics & Machine Learning Daily News Daily News-Ge Precision Healthcare LLC (Waukesha, Wisconsin, United States) has been issued patent number 12002204, according to news reporting originating out of Alexandria, Virginia, by NewsRx editors. The patent's inventors are Imran, Abdullah-Al-Zubaer (Sunnyvale, CA, US), Pal, D ebashish (Sunnyvale, CA, US), Patel, Bhavik Natvar (Paradise Valley, AZ, US), Wa ng, Adam S. (Palo Alto, CA, US), Wang, Sen (Menlo Park, CA, US), Zucker, Evan (P alo Alto, CA, US). This patent was filed on September 10, 2021 and was published online on June 4, 2024. From the background information supplied by the inventors, news correspondents o btained the following quote: "Computed tomography (CT) has been one of the most successful imaging modalities and has facilitated countless image-based medical procedures since its invention decades ago. CT accounts for a large amount of io nizing radiation exposure, especially with the rapid growth in CT examinations. Therefore, it is desirable to reduce the CT radiation dose. However, the reducti on in dose also incurs additional noise and with the degraded image quality, dia gnostic performance can be compromised. "In this regard, radiation dose and image quality have traditionally been compet ing objectives in CT imaging. To balance the two, modern CT systems use automati c exposure control (AEC), particularly tube current modulation (TCM) based on sc out images. However, the goal of conventional AEC algorithms is to provide a uni form noise level across the entire imaged volume. While this is generally succes sful in avoiding excessive radiation dose and maintaining image quality, it is l argely based solely on the general shape and size of the patient. In addition, c onventional AEC algorithms use a metric for dose which reflects the tube output rather than actual dose to the patient. Conventional AEC techniques remain unawa re of patient-specific anatomy that impacts organ dose, do not account for image quality based on the task, and are prone to issues such as patient centering."

No assignee for this patent application has been made. Reporters obtained the following quote from the background information supplied by the inventors: "There is known a production system in which a robot performs a work on an article conveyed by a conveyance device. The production system incl udes the conveyance device that conveys an article, the robot that performs a wo rk on the article conveyed by the conveyance device, and a movement device that moves the robot. In the production system, it is important to maintain a positio nal relationship whereby the robot can appropriately perform a work on the artic le. "For example, in a tracking control method for causing a robot with a traveling axis, which includes a robot body and a traveling axis for causing the robot bod y to travel in a predetermined direction, to track a continuous line, there is k nown a tracking control method of a robot with a traveling axis in which a trave l speed of the line is divided into unit times to calculate an average speed per unit time, the traveling axis of the robot with a traveling axis is controlled to perform tracking travel at the average speed per unit time, and a resulting t racking error between the traveling axis and the line is corrected as a robot er ror in a direction of the traveling axis by controlling joint axes of the robot body (for example, see PTL 1).

    Researchers Submit Patent Application, 'Rail Corrugation Recognition Method And Apparatus Based On Support Vector Machine, Device, And Medium', for Approval (US PTO 20240182089)

    116-121页
    查看更多>>摘要:By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Robotics & Machine Learning Daily News Daily News-From Washington, D.C., NewsRx journali sts report that a patent application by the inventors Liang, Shulin (Chengdu, CN ); Liu, Xiaolong (Chengdu, CN); Wen, Zefeng (Chengdu, CN); Xiao, Xinbiao (Chengd u, CN), filed on November 4, 2022, was made available online on June 6, 2024. No assignee for this patent application has been made. News editors obtained the following quote from the background information suppli ed by the inventors: "Rail wave wear (referred to as rail corrugation) has alway s been a critical issue in urban rail transit. In recent years, with the applica tion of a large number of vibration-damping rails in a metro line and the increa se of operation speed and load capacity of a metro vehicle, interaction force be tween a wheel and a rail is intensified, making rail corrugation more severe. Mo st of the damage to parts of the urban rail transit vehicle-rail system, such as fracture of elastic fastening and crack of the frame, are caused by severe rail corrugation. In addition, the severe rail corrugation can also bring strong vib ration and noise, affecting the lives of residents along the line and the ride c omfort of drivers and conductors. The most effective way to avoid or mitigate th ese problems is rail grinding. Currently, most metro operating units carry out p lanned maintenance on rail grinding according to specified operation time. Howev er, a development law of rail corrugation is complex and closely related to a ra il type and a train operation state, and the planned maintenance is often incons istent with the development law of rail corrugation, resulting in the waste of o peration and maintenance costs due to excessive grinding or frequent failures du e to insufficient grinding. State maintenance is a maintenance plan based on a r eal-time train-rail operation state, which can avoid the increase of operation a nd maintenance costs and frequent faults to the greatest extent. Therefore, a qu ick diagnosis needs to be performed on rail corrugation in real time.

The patent's assignee for patent number 11999023 is Tesa SE (Norderstedt, German y). News editors obtained the following quote from the background information suppli ed by the inventors: "Application devices are known from the prior art. With the help of these application devices, one-piece sealing elements produced by punch ing, for example, are adhered to substrates. These sealing elements have an unde rside and an upper side. The underside in this case forms a first main joining s urface, and the upper side forms a second main joining surface. The sealing elem ents can be adhered to a first substrate with their first main joining surface. Subsequently, a second substrate can be adhered to the second main joining surfa ces of the sealing elements. With the help of the sealing elements, the two subs trates can thereby be connected to one other. In particular, a one-piece sealing element produced by punching can be shaped in such a way that when the first ma in joining surface is connected to a first substrate and the second main joining surface is connected to a second substrate, a cavity is formed between the two substrates which is enclosed by the two substrates and the sealing element in su ch a manner that the two substrates and the sealing element seal the cavity from the environment of the two substrates and the sealing element.
