System And Method Utilizing Adaptive Radiation Therapy Framework

View page
US Patent:
7415095, Aug 19, 2008
Filed:
Oct 3, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/243056
Inventors:
Mark Gregory Wofford - Martinez CA, US
Ajit Singh - Danville CA, US
Christopher Amies - Walnut Creek CA, US
Peter Hoban - Verona WI, US
Jochen Klaus Kusch - Wachtberg, DE
Stefan Gliessmann - Concord CA, US
Joerg Stein - Concord CA, US
Assignee:
Siemens Aktiengesellschaft - Munich
International Classification:
A61N 5/01
US Classification:
378 65
Abstract:
Use of an adaptive radiation therapy framework includes determination of a radiation beam size, radiation beam shape, and radiation beam position for delivering at least a portion of a prescribed radiation dose to a target volume based on first image data of a patient, and selection of one radiation therapy process from an available first process and second process. The first radiation therapy process comprises acquisition of two dimensional image data of the patient, determination of a position offset based on the two-dimensional image data and on the first image data, and movement of the patient based on the position offset. The second radiation therapy process comprises acquisition of three-dimensional image data of the patient, determination of a second position offset based on the three-dimensional image data and on the first image data, and movement of the patient based on the second position offset.

Patient Data Mining

US Patent:
7617078, Nov 10, 2009
Filed:
Nov 4, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/287055
Inventors:
R. Bharat Rao - Berwyn PA, US
Sathyakama Sandilya - Cranbury NJ, US
Christopher Jude Amies - Walnut Creek CA, US
Radu Stefan Niculescu - Pittsburgh PA, US
Arun Kumar Goel - Colonia NJ, US
Thomas R. Warrick - Wayne PA, US
Assignee:
Siemens Medical Solutions USA, Inc. - Malvern PA
International Classification:
G06F 7/60
G01V 3/00
G01W 1/00
US Classification:
703 2, 705 2, 705 3, 702181
Abstract:
The present invention provides a data mining framework for mining high-quality structured clinical information. The data mining framework includes a data miner that mines medical information from a computerized patient record (CPR) based on domain-specific knowledge contained in a knowledge base. The data miner includes components for extracting information from the CPR, combining all available evidence in a principled fashion over time, and drawing inferences from this combination process. The mined medical information is stored in a structured CPR which can be a data warehouse.

Personalized Prognosis Modeling In Medical Treatment Planning

View page
US Patent:
7844560, Nov 30, 2010
Filed:
Apr 16, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/735720
Inventors:
Sriram Krishnan - Exton PA, US
R. Bharat Rao - Berwyn PA, US
Christopher Jude Amies - Walnut Creek CA, US
Assignee:
Siemens Medical Solutions USA, Inc. - Malvern PA
International Classification:
G06N 5/02
G06N 5/04
G06F 17/30
US Classification:
706 46, 706 47, 707776
Abstract:
Automated treatment planning is provided with individual specific consideration. One or more prognosis models indicate survivability as a function of patient specific information for a given dose. By determining survivability for a plurality of doses, the biological model represented by survivability as a function of dose is determined from the specific patient. Similarly, the chances of complications or side effects are determined. The chance of survivability and chance of complication are used as or instead of the tumor control probability and normal tissue complications probability, respectively. The desired tumor dosage and tolerance dosage are selected as a function of the patient specific dose distributions. The selected dosages are input to an inverse treatment planning system for establishing radiation treatment parameters.

US Patent:
7912176, Mar 22, 2011
Filed:
Sep 15, 2008
Appl. No.:

International Classification:
A61N005/10
US Classification:
600/410000
Abstract:
