ALEXANDRIA, Va., April 15 -- United States Patent no. 12,599,358, issued on April 14, was assigned to POLYVALOR LP.
"Methods and systems for ultrasound imaging of a body in motion" was invented by Philippe Cormier (Longueuil, Canada), Jonathan Poree (Montreal, Canada) and Jean Provost (Montreal, Canada).
According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "There is provided a method and a system for ultrasound imaging in presence of relative motion between a body and an imaging probe. A plurality of Eulerian-based ultrasound images of the body acquired at successive times T with the imaging probe is obtained. Lagrangian coordinates for the body are computed using data from the Eulerian-based ultrasound images. Lagra...
