BUILDING A MACHINE-LEARNING MODEL TO PREDICT SEMANTIC CONTEXT INFORMATION FOR CONTRAST-ENHANCED MEDICAL IMAGING MEASUREMENTS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18470171 titled 'BUILDING A MACHINE-LEARNING MODEL TO PREDICT SEMANTIC CONTEXT INFORMATION FOR CONTRAST-ENHANCED MEDICAL IMAGING MEASUREMENTS

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a method where a machine-learning model is pre-trained in an unsupervised manner using data from contrast-enhanced medical imaging to predict time-related information. This pre-trained model is then used to build another machine-learning model to predict semantic context information for images from the same imaging measurement.

  • Machine-learning model pre-trained in an unsupervised manner to predict time-related information from contrast-enhanced medical imaging data.
  • Use of pre-trained model to build another model for predicting semantic context information for images from the same imaging measurement.

Potential Applications

This technology could be applied in the field of medical imaging analysis, specifically in improving the interpretation and understanding of contrast-enhanced images.

Problems Solved

This technology helps in predicting both time-related and semantic context information from medical imaging data, which can aid in diagnosis and treatment planning.

Benefits

The technology can potentially improve the accuracy and efficiency of analyzing contrast-enhanced medical images, leading to better patient outcomes.

Potential Commercial Applications

  • Enhancing medical imaging software for improved analysis and interpretation of contrast-enhanced images.

Possible Prior Art

There may be existing methods or systems that utilize machine learning for medical imaging analysis, but specific prior art related to pre-training models in an unsupervised manner for predicting time-related and semantic context information from contrast-enhanced images may not be readily available.

Original Abstract Submitted

In a computer-implemented method, a machine-learning model is pre-trained in an unsupervised manner to predict time-related information based on data obtained from a contrast-enhanced medical imaging measurement. This pre-trained machine-learning model is then used to build another machine-learning model to predict semantic context information for images determined from the contrast-enhanced medical imaging measurement.
