Title: Innovations by Joaquin Lopez Herraiz
Introduction
Joaquin Lopez Herraiz is a notable inventor based in Brookline, MA (US). He has made significant contributions to the field of medical imaging, holding 2 patents that enhance the capabilities of emission tomography. His work focuses on improving the accuracy and efficiency of medical imaging techniques.
Latest Patents
One of his latest patents is titled "Normalization correction for multiple-detection enhanced emission tomography." This invention involves a method and system for acquiring a series of medical images. It includes acquiring imaging data, identifying double coincidence events and multiple detection (MD) coincidence events, and storing these events in separate datasets. The method applies normalization corrections to these datasets using values based on the identified events, ultimately reconstructing a series of medical images from the normalized data.
Another significant patent is "Inter-detector scatter enhanced emission tomography." This invention describes a method for acquiring medical imaging data from photons emitted by a subject who has received a radiotracer dose. It involves determining coincidence events from the imaging data, including those involving two or more photons. The processed coincidence events are then used to reconstruct a series of medical images of the subject.
