Assignee: THE TRUSTEES OF COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY IN THE CITY OF NEW YORK
Field: Measurement (Instruments)
Classification: CPC A  G | IPC A  G

Claim 21:
22. An apparatus configured as a trained neural network for measuring post contrast phase comprising:
a first plurality of convolutional hidden layers operating on a first image region that includes a first anatomical feature selected from a group consisting of an aorta, a portal vein, an inferior vena cava, a liver, a spleen and a renal cortex;
a second plurality of convolutional hidden layers operating on a different second image region that includes a different second anatomical feature selected from the group; and
at least one fully connected hidden layer receiving output from each of the first plurality of convolutional hidden layers and the second plurality of convolutional hidden layers and outputting to an output layer one or more nodes each representing a probability of a post contrast phase.
