Embodiment Construction

[0033] Embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to exemplary brain image data. The image analysis systems in these embodiments are adapted for brain image data analysis based on neurological deficits derived from brain defects such as lesions. However, those skilled in the art will understand that the invention can be applied to the analysis of image data depicting other regions of human or animal anatomy, such as the heart, liver, lungs, femoral or cardiac arteries. The brain example should not be construed as limiting the scope of the invention.

[0034] Diagnosing brain lesions is a multidisciplinary task in which information from different sources is collected and combined. For example, a medical practitioner combines and evaluates information from clinical investigations, neurological tests, imaging, and laboratory tests to arrive at a diagnosis. An important tool for obtaining diagnostic results is the use of image data. However, it may be...

Abstract

The present invention relates to analysis of image data, e.g. brain image data, where regions of interest are identified in patient specific image data based on non-image data. The brain image data is analyzed by correlating non-image data (20) in the form of data indicative of a neurological deficit and an object model (21) to identify one or more regions of interest (22) in the brain model, mapping the brain model to patient specific brain image data to obtain target image data (24), and identifying the one or more regions of interest in the target image data.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to systems for analyzing image data, and more particularly to systems for identifying regions of interest in patient-specific image data based on non-image data. Background technique [0002] In image analysis of suspected malignant tissue, it may be difficult to make precise distinctions between many diseases that can cause similar or even identical effects in image data. Similarly, it may be difficult to identify areas with only minor changes. As an example, early hemorrhagic stroke may be difficult to detect in brain images, especially for inexperienced practitioners. The brain is a very sensitive organ in terms of neuronal loss and recovery from disease. It is therefore critical for brain lesions to detect and diagnose any lesion as early as possible, ideally even before any anatomical changes occur. Therefore, early detection and differential diagnosis of brain lesions may often not be based solely on image data. ...
