Systems And Methods For Multimodal Imaging Using A Volumetric Representation Of An Object

View page
US Patent:
7759625, Jul 20, 2010
Filed:
Jun 3, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/132500
Inventors:
John V. Frangioni - Wayland MA, US
Roberto Accorsi - Radnor PA, US
Richard C. Lanza - Brookline MA, US
John Idoine - Mount Vernon OH, US
Assignee:
Massachusetts Institute of Technology - Cambridge MA
Children's Hospital of Philadelphia - Philadelphia PA
Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Inc. - Boston MA
International Classification:
G01L 27/00
US Classification:
2502081, 2505594
Abstract:
The invention relates to imaging systems that include a coded aperture detection system and an optical detection system. The coded aperture detection system is configured to detect radiation emitted by a radionuclide present within an object and to provide a first detector signal from the detected radiation. The optical detection system is configured to detect optical radiation from the object and to provide a second detector signal from the detected optical radiation. The system also includes a processor configured to prepare first image data from the first detector signal, second image data from the second detector signal, and registered data indicative of a spatial relationship in at least one dimension between the first and second image data. The invention also includes methods of using the new systems, e. g. , for sentinel lymph node mapping and tissue resection.

US Patent:
20060108509, May 25, 2006
Filed:
Sep 9, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/222864
Inventors:
John Frangioni - Wayland MA, US
Roberto Accorsi - Radnor PA, US
Richard Lanza - Brookline MA, US
John Idoine - Mt. Vernon OH, US
International Classification:

US Patent:
20090304150, Dec 10, 2009
Filed:
Mar 19, 2007
Appl. No.:
12/293422
Inventors:
Scott Metzler - Haddonfield NJ, US
Roberto Accorsi - St. Davids PA, US
Robert M. Lewitt - Stratford NJ, US
International Classification:
G01N 23/04
G21K 1/02
US Classification:
378 62, 378150
Abstract:
This invention is directed to a collimator and collimation techniques. Specifically, the invention is directed to a collimator and method for collimation wherein the collimator combines the resolution and sensitivity properties of pinhole Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT) imaging with the 2D complete-sampling properties of fan-beam collimators.

Coded Aperture Imager

View page
US Patent:
20070040124, Feb 22, 2007
Filed:
Apr 28, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/557062
Inventors:
Roberto Accorsi - St. Davids PA, US
International Classification:
G01T 1/164
US Classification:
250363060
Abstract:
The invention is based on the discovery that using at least two detectors in near-field imaging, wherein each detector is located on opposing sides of an object at about a 180 degree angle relative to the other detector, and equipping the detectors with two different copies of the same coded aperture, rotated at about a 90 degree angle relative to each other, minimizes near-field artifacts in images of non-static objects. The near-field coded aperture device and a method for minimizing artifacts by utilizing the device are provided. A method for detecting contraband in cargo is also provided.

Soft X-Ray Imager With Ten Micrometer Resolution

View page
US Patent:
20060261278, Nov 23, 2006
Filed:
Apr 28, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/554895
Inventors:
Roberto Accorsi - St. Davids PA, US
International Classification:
G01T 1/164
US Classification:
250363060
Abstract:
The method of imaging a spatial distribution of photon emitters, the method includes producing an image with a resolution of at most about 180 microns using an imaging device including a detector and a coded aperture, wherein a photon emitted from the photon emitter has an energy of at most about 35 keV (5.6×10J). Further provided is an imaging device for imaging a distribution of photons having energies of at most about 35 keV (5.6×10J), which includes a coded aperture comprising a mask pattern having a plurality of holes, wherein the coded aperture is adapted to provide a resolution of at most about 180 micron, a detector on which a raw image is projected through the coded aperture; and a decoder that receives the raw image from the detector and produces an image having a resolution of at most about 180 micron.
