Title: Robert G. Gould and Medical Imaging Innovation.
Introduction
Robert G. Gould is an inventor associated with San Francisco, California, and the University of California. His patent work addresses radionuclide emission imaging and methods for improving image reconstruction.
Latest Patents
Gould is credited with 1 patent: “Emission-Transmission Imaging System Using Single Energy and Dual Energy.” The invention uses X-ray transmission data to create an attenuation map of an object, then applies that map to correct emission data during image reconstruction. It describes radiation-detection circuitry with different operating modes for detecting X-ray and emission photons, as well as an iterative reconstruction process based on the object’s physical characteristics. The method can reconstruct image subsets from portions of the radionuclide projection data, either during data acquisition or afterward.
Career Highlights
Gould’s patent reflects work at the intersection of medical imaging, radiation detection, and computational image reconstruction. By combining transmission measurements with radionuclide emission data, the system aims to account for attenuation and improve the resulting images.
Collaborations
The patent information names Thomas F. Lang and Bruce H. Hasegawa among Gould’s coworkers. The work is associated with the University of California.
Conclusion
Robert G. Gould’s patented imaging system combines X-ray transmission measurements and radionuclide emission data to support attenuation correction and image reconstruction.
