InactiveUS20110166883A1Office automationHealthcare resources and facilitiesTreatment resultsTreatment options
A comprehensive healthcare analytic and predicative modeling system that tracks costs for patients on a long term basis (greater than 6 months, one-year, or more) to assess the long-term effectiveness of various treatment options. Based upon the evaluation of the long-term effectiveness of various treatment options, the system then delivers a predictive model, which is based on data extracted and aggregated from dissimilar databases, that analyzes up-to-date economic and clinical outcomes, and then, using this data, can estimate long-term future treatment results from an economic and clinical perspective. Also disclosed herein is a personal electronic medical record on a computer network created by a medical provider on the authorization of the patient and controlled by the patient. Lastly, disclosed herein is a computer system for the consolidation of medical and financial data from disparate databases into a unitary data format.

Tooth movement system and method
A patient's dentition is analysed to determine an orthodontic treatment plan by simulating an intervention in advance. 3D imaging techniques and computer technology are used to simulate and predict tooth movement as a function of the chosen treatment, i.e. a specific orthodontic appliance. In this way treatment options can be compared and the most optimal (shortest treatment time, lowest forces . . . ) treatment for each individual patient can be selected. Sub-steps of the tooth movement are not predefined but computed based on a simulation of orthodontic elements and wire as they would be used in the orthodontic treatment of the patient. This means that the sub-steps are calculated based on the relationship between the applied loads and the tooth movement; only one of both parameters can be chosen freely. Thus, either the tooth load is specified and applied in order to calculate the resulting tooth movement or vice versa the tooth movement is specified and applied in order to calculate the tooth load that should be applied. Moreover, the current invention allows predicting the time at which brackets and / or archwire should be changed, and comparing different treatment options with respect to tooth loading and duration.

Automated method and system for computerized image analysis for prognosis
ActiveUS7418123B2Improved decision making regarding treatment optionsImage enhancementImage analysisTreatment optionsLesion feature
An automated method for determining prognosis based on an analysis of abnormality (lesion) features and parenchymal features obtained from medical image data of a patient. The techniques include segmentation of lesions from radiographic images, extraction of lesion features, and a merging of the features (with and without clinical information) to yield as estimate of the prognosis for the specific case. An example is given for the prognosis of breast cancer lesions using mammographic data. A computerized image analysis system for assessing prognosis combines the computerized analysis of medical images of cancerous lesions with the training-based methods of assessing prognosis of a patient, using indicators such as lymph node involvement, presence of metastatic disease, local recurrence, and / or death. It is expected that use of such a system to assess the severity of the disease will aid in improved decision-making regarding treatment options.

A medical accelerator system is provided for simultaneous radiation therapy to all treatment fields. It provides the single dose effect of radiation on cell survival. It eliminates the inter-field interrupted, subfractionated fractionated radiation therapy. Single or four beams S-band, C-band or X-band accelerators are connected to treatment heads through connecting beam lines. It is placed in a radiation shielding vault which minimizes the leakage and scattered radiation and the size and weight of the treatment head. In one version, treatment heads are arranged circularly and connected with the beam line. In another version, a pair of treatment heads is mounted to each ends of narrow gantries and multiple such treatment heads mounted gantries are assembled together. Electron beam is steered to all the treatment heads simultaneously to treat all the fields simultaneously. Radiating beam's intensity in a treatment field is modulated with combined divergent and pencil beam, selective beam's energy, dose rate and weight and not with MLC and similar devices. Since all the treatment fields are treated simultaneously the dose rate at the tumor site is the sum of each of the converging beam's dose rate at depth. It represents the biological dose rate. The dose rate at d-max for a given field is the individual machine dose rate. Its treatment options includes divergent or pencil beam modes. It enables to treat a tumor with lesser radiation toxicities to normal tissue and higher tumor cure and control.
