DIAGNOSIS ASSISTANT APPARATUS, DIAGNOSIS ASSISTANT METHOD, AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER READABLE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18321110 titled 'DIAGNOSIS ASSISTANT APPARATUS, DIAGNOSIS ASSISTANT METHOD, AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER READABLE MEDIUM
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a diagnosis assistant apparatus that uses biomarker measurements to determine the presence or absence of a lesion and its properties. Here are the key points:
- The apparatus includes a processor.
- It acquires a first measured value of a biomarker in a liquid sample collected from a subject before a physical stimulus is applied.
- It also acquires a second measured value of the biomarker in a liquid sample collected from the subject after the physical stimulus is applied.
- The processor then performs a determination on the presence/absence and properties of a lesion based on the first and second measured values.
Original Abstract Submitted
A diagnosis assistant apparatus according to an embodiment includes a processor. The processor acquires a first measured value of a biomarker in a first liquid sample that is collected from a subject before a physical stimulus is applied and a second measured value of the biomarker in a second liquid sample that is collected from the subject after the physical stimulus is applied. The processor performs a determination on at least one of presence/absence and a property of a lesion based on the first measured value and the second measured value.
