8 results about "Tumor margin" patented technology

Margin: This refers to the area of normal-seeming tissue surrounding a tumor that has been removed during a biopsy or other surgery. This area may contain microscopic cancer cells, so, a pathologist examines it during a comprehensive margin evaluation. If the margins are narrow (one or two millimeters), malignant tumors are more likely to recur.

A brain tumor image recognition diagnosis method and system for neurosurgery

PendingCN122289122ATumor marginBrain tumor
This application provides a method and system for image recognition and diagnosis of brain tumors in neurosurgery. First, the brain tumor image is preprocessed. The preprocessed brain tumor image is then decomposed into at least two feature component maps that complement each other in terms of structural and texture information. Next, each feature component map is sequentially subjected to a first-stage adaptive nonlocal mean filtering based on local statistical characteristics and a second-stage filtering based on structural correlation similarity measurement. The filtered feature component maps are then fused and reconstructed to obtain a feature-enhanced brain tumor image. This feature-enhanced brain tumor image is input into a pre-trained brain tumor recognition model, and the neurosurgical diagnosis results are obtained through the model. Using the scheme of this application, a two-stage adaptive filtering based on local scattering statistics and structural correlation measurement can be achieved, thereby enhancing tumor edge and texture features while suppressing ultrasound speckle, thus improving the accuracy of segmentation and diagnosis.

Liver cancer image classification method based on interference quantification and pathological prior

PendingCN122368590AParanasal Sinus CarcinomaTumor margin
This invention provides a hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) image classification method based on interference quantification and pathological priors, belonging to the field of medical technology. The method includes: acquiring HCC tumor images and dividing them into multi-region segmentation data, including a tumor core region, a tumor edge transition region, and a distal cirrhotic background region; calculating an interference index based on the gray-level and texture-related features of the HCC tumor images; performing adaptive feature selection and graded specific correction using a pre-constructed graded correction parameter library to obtain a corrected anti-interference tumor feature set; constructing a regularized loss function containing pathological constraints based on predefined cirrhosis and case association rules; training a model based on the anti-interference tumor feature set; and outputting the HCC image classification result. This invention solves the problem of difficult HCC image classification due to the blurred background boundaries and mixed features of tumors in HCC tumor images caused by varying degrees of cirrhosis in patients, as well as the scarcity of HCC tumor subtype samples.

Multi-axis tumor margin marker system

ActiveUS12678263B2Tumor marginAnatomy
A multi-axis tumor excision marker system is configured to deposit markers along multiple axes radially about a tumor to define a boundary of margin tissue for excision. A catheter may deploy a marker extension that extends to a margin tissue boundary for depositing the marker. The marker extension may be a shape memory material that extends radially outward from catheter opening or may be directed radially outward by a guide head. The radiopaque marker may be a phase change marker, such as an adhesive that changes from a liquid to a solid. A marker may be a discrete marker and may have an extension portion that extends from an anchor portion. An envelopment marker has a plurality of marker extensions that each extend along an offset axis from each other. A spiral maker includes a maker extension that spirals around the margin boundary tissue.
