Embodiment Construction

[0063] In order to understand the context of the apparatus for diagnostic image acquisition determination, the system for diagnostic image acquisition determination, the image acquisition system and the method for diagnostic image acquisition determination, relevant information regarding the utility of the described new techniques is provided below.

[0064] Neoadjuvant therapy (NAT) is where therapy (drugs, radiation, or a combination of the two) is given to the patient, usually to shrink the tumor so that it becomes operable (note that surgery is often the most common form of curative treatment for cancer form). NAT is a very prominent case where the devices, systems and methods described herein have applicability. However, the devices, systems and methods described herein also find utility with respect to the time period that a patient is typically monitored after a (presumably) successful procedure. Currently, patients are then imaged at multiple time points. In colon ca...

Abstract

The invention relates to a device (10) for diagnostic image acquisition, comprising: an input unit (20); a processing unit (30); and an output unit (40). The input unit is configured to receive data values relating to at least one biomarker in a measured blood sample of a patient. The processing unit is configured to determine a time at which a diagnostic image of the patient is acquired, wherein the determining comprises utilizing the data value. The output unit is configured to output an indication of a time at which a diagnostic image of a patient is acquired.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an apparatus for diagnostic image acquisition determination, a system for diagnostic image acquisition determination, an image acquisition system, a method for diagnostic image acquisition determination, and a computer program element and a computer-readable medium. Background technique [0002] Currently, in so-called neo-adjuvant therapy (NAT), all cancer patients receive a standard or standardized drug therapy regimen involving forms of chemotherapy and / or radiation therapy and / or ablation therapy. Imaging is currently the gold standard for evaluating the efficacy of treatments (drugs, radiation, ablation) to see if a tumor responds to treatment and shrinks, stays the same or even grows further (regression, stable disease or spread). N.M. deSouza's ISMRM-2018 abstract, "Monitoring response to therapy," mentions that it may be advantageous to turn to imaging during radiation therapy to accommodate therapy planning. H...
