Abstract
Description
[0001] Artificial Intelligence Platform for Multi-Modal Radiological Image Analysis, Cardiac MRI Quantification, Pneumonia Classification, Tumor Segmentation and Grading
[0002] TECHNICAL FIELD
[0003] The present disclosure generally relates to the field of digital health, artificial intelligence, and radiological image analysis in medical screening. More specifically, it pertains to an Al-driven platform designed for the tumor segmentation and grading; cardiac MRI quantification, and pneumonia classification, employing deep learning-based algorithms for automated detection, localization, and quantification. By leveraging Al-powered digital analysis, the disclosed invention enhances the diagnosis and detection, improves assessment accuracy, and optimizes healthcare resources. The innovative software framework employs a three-tier architecture, comprising a presentation layer for user interaction, a business logic layer for data processing, and a data access layer for managing system data. This holistic approach addresses current limitations in screening and diagnosis programs, improves accessibility to predictive diagnostics, and healthcare management.
[0004] BACKGROUND
[0005] Existing computer-aided diagnostic systems are often limited to specific pathologies or single imaging modalities, lacking comprehensive integration to diagnosis different conditions and realtime quantitative capabilities. Conventional radiological image interpretation remains heavily dependent on the expertise of radiologists. Despite advances in imaging hardware, diagnostic accuracy and consistency vary considerably among practitioners. Human visual assessment is inherently limited by fatigue, subjective interpretation, and workload pressures. These constraints lead to delays in diagnosis, inter-observer variability, and missed findings.
[0006] In cardiac imaging, accurate assessment of atrial and ventricular volumes using MRI is critical for identifying functional disorders such as atrial fibrillation, dilated cardiomyopathy, and valvular stenosis. Manual contouring of cardiac chambers remains a labor-intensive and time-consuming task requiring specialized training. Current Al approaches in this area either depend on pre-defined segmentation templates or limited 2D slice analysis, which fail to generalize to full 3D volumetric datasets or account for cardiac motion variability and tumor grading.
[0007] Recent advances in computer-aided diagnostic (CAD) systems and Al have led to automated tumor detection and segmentation algorithms. These systems often use convolutional neural networks (CNNs) for 2D slice analysis or simple 3D volume reconstruction. However, existing Al systems are generally limited in several key ways including single-modality focus, lacking flexibility to integrate multiple imaging modalities such as PET / CT or multiphase MRI, limited volumetric precision and staging estimation, static models, wherein Al models require retraining for new data sources, lacking federated or adaptive learning frameworks.
[0008] Consequently, there exists a significant unmet need for a unified, multi-modal Al platform that provides comprehensive tumor segmentation and grading, robust volumetric quantification, and interpretability for clinical decision support. Accurate determination of cardiac size and position, measurement of atrial and ventricular volumes in cardiac MRI, identification of pneumonia in chest X-rays, and tumors segmentation in CT scans are all critical tasks in diagnostic radiology. The absence of an integrated, intelligent system capable of performing all these analyses across modalities leads to inefficiencies, diagnostic delays, and potential oversight of life-threatening abnormalities.
[0009] SUMMARY
[0010] According to this invention, there is provided an Al-driven platform designed to multi-modal radiological image analysis, offering automated detection, localization, segmentation, and diagnostic assistance for cardiopulmonary and oncological diseases. The invention includes several distinct but interoperable modules: a preprocessing module for noise and contrast normalization; a cardiac localization and bounding-box generation module using transformerbased vision models; a cardiac MRI quantification module leveraging 3D convolutional and recurrent layers to compute atrial / ventricular volumes dynamically; a pneumonia classification module trained on multimodal feature embeddings; and a lung tumor segmentation module utilizing hybrid CNN-transformer architectures for volumetric delineation. Each module is orchestrated within a federated learning framework that enables distributed model adaptation across clinical institutions while preserving patient data privacy.
[0011] The system is implemented on GPU-accelerated servers or cloud infrastructure. Radiological images are ingested via DICOM interfaces or PACS retrieval. After preprocessing, the Al pipeline performs multi-modal feature extraction, tumor detection, segmentation, and grading. Output masks and grading reports are rendered in a clinician-friendly viewer with overlays and quantitative metrics. The system continuously adapts through federated learning, allowing deployment across multiple institutions while maintaining data privacy.
[0012] According to this invention, there is provided a system that leverages advanced machine learning techniques and CNN-transformer architectures to employs deep convolutional or transformerbased neural networks to automatically detect the position and size of the heart and to generate an adaptive bounding box with precise margins.
[0013] It calculates metrics such as the cardiothoracic ratio and heart displacement index, supporting detection of cardiomegaly and related abnormalities.
[0014] It automatically measures end-diastolic and end-systolic volumes, ejection fraction, and atrial size, and identifies abnormalities including atrial fibrillation and mitral valve stenosis.
[0015] According to this invention, there is provided a method and applies 3D segmentation algorithms on CT / MRI images to detect and delineate tumors to measures tumor volume, spatial coordinates, and generates data relevant to tumor staging (TNM classification).
[0016] According to this invention, there is provided seamless interoperability with DICOM and PACS systems, allowing users to upload or retrieve images directly from medical imaging archives.
[0017] The system supports federated learning, enabling distributed model training without centralizing patient data, ensuring both privacy and continuous model improvement.
[0018] DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0019] The present invention discloses a "Smart PACS" platform and the world’s first integrated system that overcomes the limitations of the prior art by providing a holistic system for intelligent medical image management and analysis. The core of the invention is the integration of multiple, specialized Al analysis modules directly into a DICOMweb-compliant PACS framework. The key components and features of the invention include:
[0020] 1. A Centralized Web-Based PACS Platform: A server-based system that manages and serves medical images in compliance with the DICOM standard.
[0021] 2. A Plurality of Integrated Al Diagnostic Models: The platform natively integrates several distinct, pre-trained Al models, each designed for a specific diagnostic task, including but not limited to: o A Tumor Segmentation Model for identifying and delineating tumor boundaries in MRI / CT scans, enabling accurate volume measurement and tumor grading module that integrates radiomic, morphological, and PET-derived metabolic features via CNN, Vision Transformer (ViT), Radiomics + ML (SVM, XGBoost), Hybrid CNN-ML models to identify tumour masses, segmentation, volumetric quantification, and grading to guide surgical or chemotherapeutic interventions. o A Cardiac Detection Model for automatically localizing the heart and drawing a bounding box around it in radiographs to aid in detecting cardiomegaly and related pulmonary conditions. o A Left Atrium Segmentation Model for precisely segmenting the left atrium in Cardiac MRI scans to quantify volume and assist in diagnosing conditions like atrial fibrillation. o A Pneumonia Classification Model for automatically classifying Chest X-Ray images to identify the presence or absence of pneumonia based on opacities and other visual indicators.
[0022] 3. An Integrated DICOM Viewer with Analysis Toolbox: A web-based viewer that is natively integrated with the platform, providing tools for image manipulation (e.g., windowing, zooming, panning) and measurement, and serving as the interface for launching and displaying results from the Al models.
[0023] 4. Pull DICOMweb Protocol Support: The platform implements the DICOMweb standard, including: o QIDO-RS (Query based on ID for DICOM Objects by RESTful Services) for efficient, metadata-based searching and filtering of studies. o WADO-RS (Web Access to DICOM Persistent Obj ects by RESTful Services) for retrieving images, metadata, and bulk data in a modern, web-friendly manner.
[0024] 5. Unified Workflow: The invention enables a unified diagnostic workflow wherein a user can query studies via QIDO-RS, retrieve them via WADO-RS, view them in the integrated viewer, and execute one or more Al analyses with a single click, with results overlaid directly on the original images within the same interface.
[0025] System Overview:
[0026] The platform comprises a unified software and computational framework configured to receive medical imaging data (including, but not limited to, MRI, CT, PET, or hybrid modalities such as PET / CT or PET / MRI), process the data through modular Al pipelines, and output clinically relevant diagnostic metrics.
[0027] Each module operates autonomously or in coordination with other system components through a centralized controller and standardized data exchange interface. The modules may be deployed on local hospital servers, cloud-based processing environments, or edge computing devices within imaging scanners.
[0028] The Al algorithms are trained on annotated medical datasets using supervised, semi-supervised, or transfer learning approaches to ensure robust generalization across imaging protocols, patient demographics, and hardware vendors.
[0029] Tumor Grading Module:
[0030] The tumor grading module integrates radiomic, morphological, and PET-derived metabolic features within a unified analytical framework to identify tumor masses, perform segmentation, quantify volumetric attributes, and generate malignancy grading outputs to guide surgical or chemotherapeutic interventions.
[0031] Image Preprocessing and Registration:
[0032] The module receives multi-parametric imaging inputs — such as T1-, T2-, FLAIR-weighted MRI, CT, and PET images — and performs automatic preprocessing steps including:
[0033] Intensity normalization,
[0034] Noise suppression and artifact correction,
[0035] Spatial alignment (registration) across modalities, and
[0036] Region-of-interest (ROI) extraction.
[0037] This ensures that anatomical and metabolic features are co-registered for subsequent feature extraction and model inference.
[0038] Tumor Segmentation and Volumetric Quantification:
[0039] Segmentation is performed via Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and Vision Transformer (ViT) architectures. In some embodiments, a 3D U-Net or nnU-Net configuration is employed to delineate tumor boundaries voxel-by- voxel, while the Vision Transformer captures long-range contextual relationships within the volumetric data.
[0040] Post-processing operations (morphological filtering, connected component analysis) are applied to refine the segmentation masks. Tumor volume is calculated based on voxel count multiplied by voxel dimensions, yielding precise volumetric measurements. Leature Extraction:
[0041] The module extracts multiple categories of features:
[0042] Radiomic features: texture, intensity, and wavelet- based descriptors derived from segmented regions;
[0043] Morphological features: shape descriptors such as sphericity, compactness, irregularity, and surface-area-to-volume ratio; and
[0044] Metabolic features: PET-derived standardized uptake values (SUVmean, SUVmax, total lesion glycolysis).
[0045] These feature sets are normalized and concatenated into a multi-dimensional feature vector for integrated analysis.
[0046] Multi-model integration for tumor grading
[0047] To perform tumor grading and malignancy scoring, the module implements a hybrid Al approach combining:
[0048] Deep learning models such as CNN and Vision Transformer (ViT) for spatial feature extraction;
[0049] Machine learning classifiers, including Support Vector Machine (SVM) and XGBoost, trained on radiomic and morphological feature vectors; and
[0050] Hybrid CNN-ML pipelines, in which CNN-derived embeddings are fed into ML classifiers to enhance explainability and reduce overfitting.
[0051] The resulting classifier outputs a malignancy probability score and an assigned tumor grade (e.g., WHO Grade I-IV or equivalent), which are displayed in an interpretable report for clinician review.
[0052] Clinical Integration:
[0053] The tumor grading module interfaces with hospital information systems (HIS) and picture archiving and communication systems (PACS) to export segmentation masks, volumetric data, and grading reports. The output guides treatment planning by informing:
[0054] Surgical margin estimation,
[0055] Radiotherapy dose mapping, and
[0056] Chemotherapy regimen selection.
[0057] Cardiac Localization Module The cardiac localization module performs automated localization and morphometric analysis of cardiac anatomy to calculate the cardiothoracic ratio (CTR) and detect heart displacement using Al model combinations. The module operates on 2D or 3D medical images, such as chest X- rays, CT, or MRI datasets.
[0058] Image Segmentation and Detection:
[0059] The module employs deep neural architectures, including nnU-Net, DeepLabV3+, and Y0L0v8, to segment or detect cardiac and thoracic boundaries:
[0060] The nnU-Net architecture provides pixel-wise segmentation of the heart and thoracic cage;
[0061] DeepLabV3+ enhances boundary precision using dilated convolutions and attention mechanisms;
[0062] Y0L0v8 enables real-time detection of cardiac bounding boxes and key anatomical landmarks (e.g., cardiac apex, midline, diaphragm).
[0063] The output segmentation masks or bounding boxes are used to compute anatomical distances relevant to CTR and heart displacement.
[0064] Cardiothoracic Ratio Computation:
[0065] Using the segmentation outputs, the module automatically determines:
[0066] Maximum heart width (transverse cardiac diameter),
[0067] Maximum thoracic width (distance between inner rib cage boundaries), and computes the Cardiothoracic Ratio (CTR) as: CTR=Thoracic Width / Cardiac Width
[0068] The computed ratio is compared against clinically accepted thresholds (e.g., CTR > 0.5 indicative of cardiomegaly).
[0069] Heart Displacement Detection:
[0070] Heart displacement or mediastinal shift is detected using an Al classification subsystem that combines:
[0071] Feature-based ML models such as XGBoost, utilizing geometric and positional features (e.g., heart center offset, lung asymmetry); and
[0072] Deep CNN classifiers such as ResNet, trained to recognize displacement patterns directly from imaging data. These model combinations allow robust differentiation between normal and abnormal cardiac positioning, even under varying patient orientations or imaging conditions.
[0073] Diagnostic Output:
[0074] The cardiac localization module outputs:
[0075] The CTR value (numeric),
[0076] A classification label indicating “normal,” “cardiomegaly,” or “displacement detected,”
[0077] Annotated visualization overlays showing heart and thorax boundaries.
[0078] These outputs assist cardiologists and radiologists in identifying cardiac enlargement or mediastinal shift and in monitoring disease progression.
[0079] The invention provides several technical and clinical advantages, including: o Fully automated, multi-organ diagnostic capability integrating oncology and cardiology analyses within one platform. o High diagnostic precision achieved through hybrid deep learning and radiomics-based ML architectures. o Quantitative outputs (tumor volume, CTR, displacement vectors) to support objective and reproducible clinical decision-making. o Scalable deployment across imaging modalities and institutions via modular design. o Explainability and regulatory compliance, enhancing physician trust and traceability in AI- assisted diagnostics. o Load and show instance of data:
