Latest Patent Applications

Jhih-Shian Lee has filed a patent application titled "SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR QUANTITATIVE ANALYSIS OF NUCLEAR MEDICINE BRAIN IMAGING." This invention provides a method for quantitative analysis of nuclear medicine brain imaging. The method involves retrieving a target image, which is a brain image produced from a radiopharmaceutical. It includes matching the position of a space axis and the size of a voxel of the target image to a standard template through an affine transformation. The standard template comprises a relative position of the striatum. The method further involves selecting the striatum from the target image based on its relative position in the standard template. It calculates an average value of the striatum, divides the striatum from the target image, and computes a background value based on the remainder pixel value of the target image. A specific uptake ratio is then calculated based on the average value of the striatum and the background value.

Conclusion

Jhih-Shian Lee's work in nuclear medicine imaging represents a significant advancement in the field. His innovative methods have the potential to enhance the accuracy of brain imaging analysis, contributing to better patient outcomes.
