US Classification:
709227, 709228, 709229
Abstract:
Systems and methods are provided for providing asynchronous communication between a source processor and a destination processor. In one embodiment, a method includes receiving an information request; making a first call to the destination processor, such that the first call includes the information request; and ending the first call while the destination processor determines an information response, such that said ending terminates a synchronous communication between the source processor and the destination processor. Furthermore, the method includes making a second call to the source processor, such that the second call includes the information response; ending the second call, such that said ending terminates a synchronous communication between the destination processor and the source processor; and providing asynchronously the information response.

SHANGHAI UNITED IMAGING HEALTHCARE CO., LTD. - Shanghai
International Classification:
A61B 5/055 G01R 33/48 G01R 33/561
Abstract:
A method may include obtaining a plurality of imaging signals collected by applying a wave encoding gradient to a region of interest (ROI) of a subject. The method may also include obtaining a plurality of auxiliary signals associated with the ROI. The method may also include obtaining a point spread function corresponding to the wave encoding gradient. The method may also include determining, based on the plurality of auxiliary signals, temporal information relating to at least one temporal dimension of the ROI. The method may also include determining, based on the plurality of auxiliary signals, the plurality of imaging signals, and the point spread function, spatial information relating to at least one spatial dimension of the ROI. The method may also include generating at least one target image of the ROI based on the temporal information and the spatial information.
A method for medical imaging may include obtaining a plurality of successive images of a region of interest (ROI) including at least a portion of an object's heart. The plurality of successive images may be based on imaging data acquired from the ROI by a scanner without electrocardiography (ECG) gating. The plurality of successive images may be related to one or more cardiac cycles of the object's heart. The method may also include automatically determining, in the plurality of successive images, target images that correspond to at least one of the one or more cardiac cycles of the object's heart.

International Classification:
G06T 7/00 G01R 33/56 G01R 33/48
Abstract:
A method may include acquiring MR signals by an MR scanner and generating image data in a k-space according to the MR signals. The method may also include classifying the image data into a plurality of phases. Each of the plurality of phases may have a first count of spokes. A spoke may be defined by a trajectory for filling the k-space. The method may also include classifying the plurality of phases of the image data into a plurality of groups and determining reference images based on the plurality of groups. Each of the reference images may correspond to the at least one of the phases of the image data. The method may further include reconstructing an image sequence based on the reference images and the plurality of phases of the image data.

International Classification:
C02F 1/40 C02F 1/28
Abstract:
Smart membranes are integrated into a small, unmanned surface vessel to enable the efficient, automated cleanup of oil spills. Such a vessel has the potential to provide a low-cost, modular solution for day-to-day oil-spill cleanup operations, especially in confined aquatic areas (e.g., under piers or in the small spaces between marine vessels and piers). The membranes are provided on the surface of a conveyor belt that circulates the membranes through the surrounding body of water for oil collection, as well as through an internal reduction chamber of the vessel for oil release. The smart membranes are adapted to attract and repel oil in response to low-voltage commands applied across the conveyor belt, using a process that is repeatable for a number of cycles, offering high efficiency and long durability. Segments of the conveyor belt can be electrically isolated from one another to allow disparate electrical potentials to be imposed thereon.
