Systems and Methods for Whole Brain Net Water Uptake Imaging using Non-Contrast CT Scans
Software
Description of Invention
The inventors in this technology have developed software to allow the direct visualization of net water uptake in edema. In acute ischemic stroke, vessel occlusion leads to progressive edema in the brain, which is an increase of water content in the affected brain tissue. If left untreated, the progressive edema eventually...

A method of computed tomography (CT) noise reduction using different CT scans from the same person and convolutional neural network
Software
Description of Invention
Computed tomography (CT) is commonly used to image different parts of the body with or without contrast injection. Its image quality is directly related to the amount of ionizing radiation dose. It is especially limited in CT of the brain where increased radiation is known to cause damage and hamper brain development....

Multivalent ligands targeting VEGFR
Invention
The invention consists of novel compounds for angiogenesis-targeted therapy and imaging particularly for diseases such as cancer where increased angiogenesis is deleterious. The compounds target the VEGF receptor (VEGFR) with 100-fold improvement in binding affinity, higher specificity and tumor cell uptake and improved blood clearance. The...
