Biologically inspired intelligent body scanner

摘要

An intelligent medical imaging scanner system includes an image scanner, an operator interface, a database, processors, and a storage medium. The database includes a learning model for relating configurations of the image scanner to operator input requirements. The storage medium contains programming instructions that, when executed, cause the processors to determine whether the learning model may be used to generate a configuration of the image scanner corresponding to the new input requirements. If the configuration can be generated, the processors use that configuration to acquire images of a patient using the image scanner. If the configuration of the image scanner cannot be generated, the processors perform an accommodation process comprising (a) modifying the learning model to generate a new configuration of the image scanner corresponding to the new input requirements, and (b) using the new configuration to acquire the images of the patient using the image scanner.
