Title: Innovations by Yu-Chung Norman Cheng
Introduction
Yu-Chung Norman Cheng is an accomplished inventor based in Northville, MI (US). He holds a total of 3 patents that showcase his contributions to the fields of medical diagnostics and magnetic resonance imaging.
Latest Patents
One of his latest patents is a malaria detection method and device. This innovative method involves an interdigitated sensor that includes a first electrode with a plurality of fingers and a second electrode with a plurality of fingers, interspersed and spaced apart from the fingers of the first electrode. A quantity of blood to be tested is received on the sensor, which is then dried and measured for at least one measurable characteristic, including the resistance of the blood. The presence of malaria-infected blood is determined based on a comparison between the measurable characteristics and a predetermined threshold related to these characteristics.
Another significant patent is the geometry-based field prediction method for susceptibility mapping and phase artifact removal. This invention addresses rapid phase aliasing in magnetic resonance images that arise from local magnetic susceptibility differences. The methods can estimate the field effects within an object arising from the interfaces of regions with differing magnetic susceptibilities. Additionally, it includes a process for accurately determining the susceptibility values of multiple voxel regions based on their geometry.
