US Patent Issued to Siemens Healthineers on July 22 for "Iterative hierarchal network for regulating medical image reconstruction" (New Jersey Inventors)

ALEXANDRIA, Va., July 23 -- United States Patent no. 12,367,621, issued on July 22, was assigned to Siemens Healthineers AG (Forchheim, Germany).

"Iterative hierarchal network for regulating medical image reconstruction" was invented by Mahmoud Mostapha (Princeton, N.J.), Mariappan S. Nadar (Plainsboro, N.J.) and Simon Arberet (Princeton, N.J.).

According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "For reconstruction in medical imaging, such as reconstruction in MR imaging, an iterative, hierarchal network for regularization may decrease computational complexity. To further maintain computational complexity while improving robustness, auxiliary information is used in the regularization and corresponding reconstructio...
