Latest Patents
Maslowski's latest patents include "Automatic estimating and reducing scattering in computed tomography scans." This invention provides a process to estimate scattered radiation in x-ray projections for CT reconstruction. The method constructs an object model based on multiple projection images generated by CT scanning. It simulates the behavior of particles emitted from a virtual radiation source, passing through the object model, and being detected by a virtual detector panel. The process generates a simulated scatter image based on particles scattered during the CT scanning.
Another notable patent is "Automatic organ-dose-estimation for patient-specific computed tomography scans." This invention calculates patient-specific organ doses by constructing a CT volume from CT images. It segments the volume into organ regions and generates a material density map based on Hounsfield Unit (HU) values. The process simulates particles flowing through the CT volume to create a dose distribution map, ultimately delivering a dose value to specific organ regions.
