MUMBAI, India, May 30 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202321079723 A) filed by Tata Consultancy Services Limited, Maharashtra, on Nov. 23, 2023, for 'systems and methods for detecting anomaly in biological tissues.'
Inventor(s) include Rakshit, Raj; Khasnobish, Anwesha; Mazumder, Annesha; Chowdhury, Arijit; and Chakravarty, Tapas.
The application for the patent was published on May 30, under issue no. 22/2025.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The usage of microwave imaging for biomedical (BMWI) applications is still challenging due to the imprecise reconstruction of the relative permittivity of tissues and the ill-posed inverse scattering problem. Anomaly detection in biological tissues demand in-vivo, non-invasive, and non-contact measurements. Considering and proving the anomaly as a point object in the microwave imaging is erroneous and results in false implications about the anomaly's presence, location, and characteristics. Present disclosure provides systems and methods for anomaly detection in biological tissues. An intensity map of target region is generated to detect tumor. Area around the tumor is processed to obtain a refined image. As the tumor is embedded in tissues of higher dielectric constant, image thus formed is larger in size than actual tumor. An iterative numerical computation method is implemented to estimate relative permittivity. Subsequently, the effective size of the anomaly is approximately estimated, which is close to their actual values."
