An apparatus for applying energy to an object includes an arrangement of energy emitting elements for outputting energy to the object. At least some of the energy emitting elements are configured to emit energy to the object independently from each other.

Apparatus, method and computer program for applying energy to an object

A method for radiotherapy monitoring is provided. The method comprises calculation of treatment-guiding indices of side-effects based on processing image derived descriptors and measurement values of selected disease specific biomarkers and optionally questionnaire data. A computer program product is also provided.

Method and device for side-effect prognosis and monitoring

A method includes generating a kinetic parameter value for a VOI in a functional image of a subject based on motion corrected projection data using an iterative algorithm, including determining a motion correction for projection data corresponding to the VOI based on the VOI, motion correcting the projection data corresponding to the VOI to generate the motion corrected projection data, and estimating the at least one kinetic parameter value based on the motion corrected projection data or image data generated with the motion corrected projection data. In another embodiment, a method includes registering functional image data indicative of tracer uptake in a scanned patient with image data from a different imaging modality, identifying a VOI in the image based on the registered images, generating at least one kinetic parameter for the VOI, and generating a feature vector including the at least one generated kinetic parameter and at least one bio-marker.

Functional imaging

An electrode assembly arranged to carry out a bioelectrical interaction with an individual, said electrode assembly comprising a conductive material having a contact surface arranged to be brought into contact with a receiving area of the individual's skin, said conductive material being electrically connectable to a suitable electronic device to enable said interaction, the electrode assembly having an impedance control means arranged to measure and control the impedance of the receiving area of the individual's skin prior to an event of the bioelectrical interaction.

Electrode assembly and a system with impedance control

The invention relates to a wearable device arranged for enabling a bioelectrical interaction with an individual when being brought into contact with the individual's skin I, said device comprising electrodesarranged to carry out said interaction by means of a first electrical signal, said electrodes comprise motion artifact detection meansThe electrode assemblycomprises electrodearranged to carry out a bioelectrical interaction with the individual by means of measuring an electrical signal on the body of the individual I and/or applying an electrical signal to the body of the individual. In order to enable said bioelectrical interaction the electrodeis provided with an electrical cableAccording to the invention, the electrodeis arranged with a prThe pressure sensoris arranged to measure a normal force component of an external force applied to the electrode due to movement of the individual. Preferably the pressure sensoris a force/pressure sensitive resistor or a capacitive pressure sensor. The pressure sensor is arranged to produce an electrical signal, referred to as the second signal, the magnitude of the second signal being proportional to the pressure load. The pressure sensoris arranged with cablesfor purposes of signal proce
