Title: Innovations of Tung-Hsin Wu in Medical Imaging and Radiotherapy
Introduction
Tung-Hsin Wu is a notable inventor based in Taipei, Taiwan. He has made significant contributions to the fields of medical imaging and radiotherapy, holding a total of 2 patents. His work focuses on improving treatment planning and visualization techniques in cardiac care.
Latest Patents
One of his latest patents is titled "Method for calculating an optimal arc angle of dynamic arc radiotherapy by volume-based algorithms." This invention provides a method applied for the new dynamic arc radiotherapy treatment planning to calculate an optimal arc angle. With this invention, an operator without rich experience is able to reach the expected low dose in lungs easily and quickly. This invention can not only estimate the distribution of low radiation dose in lungs but also reduce the shortcomings like consumption of time and inaccuracy caused by manual trial and error.
Another significant patent is the "System and method of mapping medical image of single heart chamber." This system and method disclose a way to map a cardiac image of a single heart chamber. In this system, one heart chamber, such as a left atrium or right ventricular, can be selected in a 3D-based cardiac image, such as a CT or MRI image. The slices of the selected heart chamber are reconstructed and unwrapped by a 2D mapping visual display manner. The visual display and required angle alignment planes for subsequent analysis will be adjusted and achieved by the operator manually, with specific global and regional architectural analysis performed by an automatic algorithm.
