摘要
以下引文是新闻编辑从新闻编辑提供的背景资料中获得的发明人:“人或动物受试者(例如患者)的状况通常至少部分地被估计。”基于一个或多个身体扫描,使用成像技术产生受试者身体的图像例如X射线、正电子发射断层显像(PET)、磁共振成像(MRI)、超声波或显微镜检查例如,这种扫描可用于诊断受试者的疾病,例如癌症。
Abstract
The following quote was obtained by the news editors from the background informa tion supplied bythe inventors: “A condition of a human or animal subject (e.g. patient) is often estimated at least in partbased on one or more bodily scans, which produce images of the subject’s body using imaging technologiessuch as x- ray, positron emission tomography (PET), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), ultra sound ormicroscopy. For example such scans could be used to diagnose an illness of the subject, such as cancer.
