Abrégé
Methods, computing devices, and MRI systems that reduce artifacts produced by Maxwell gradient terms in TSE imaging using non-rectilinear trajectories are disclosed. With this technology, a RF excitation pulse is generated to produce transverse magnetization that generates a NMR signal and a series of RF refocusing pulses to produce a corresponding series of NMR spin-echo signals. An original encoding gradient waveform comprising a non-rectilinear trajectory is modified by adjusting a portion of the original encoding gradient waveform or introducing a zero zeroth-moment waveform segment at end(s) of the original encoding gradient waveform. During an interval adjacent to each of the series of RF refocusing pulses a first gradient pulse is generated. At least one of the first gradient pulses is generated according to the modified gradient waveform. An image is constructed from generated digitized samples of the NMR spin-echo signals obtained.

DETERMINING COMPARABLE PATIENTS ON THE BASIS OF ONTOLOGIES
The invention relates to a computer-implemented method for determining a similarity measure, the similarity measure describing a similarity between a first patient and a second patient. The method is based on receiving a first patient data record and a second patient data record, the first patient data record being assigned to the first patient and the second patient data record being assigned to the second patient. Furthermore, a medical ontology is received or determined. In this context, the medical ontology is independent of the first patient data record and of the second patient data record. Furthermore, a patient ontology is determined on the basis of the medical ontology, and further on the basis of the first patient data record and/or the second patient data record. Furthermore, a similarity measure is determined on the basis of the patient ontology. Optionally, the similarity measure is moreover provided, the provision possibly encompassing storage, transmission and/or representation of the similarity measure. The invention furthermore relates to a determination system, a computer program product, and a computer-readable storage medium for determining a similarity measure, the similarity measure describing a similarity between a first patient and a second patient.

Hidden Features are locally extracted from Industrial Data of the industrial system by a Local Application executed on a local computer of a customer. The Hidden Features are uploaded to an external computer of a service provider. A Domain Model for the industrial system is externally determined from an Industrial Model Library (IML) on the external computer based on the uploaded Hidden Features by an External Algorithm including at least one Machine Learning Model (MLM) executed on the external computer. The determined Domain Model for the industrial system is provided to the customer. The at least one MLM has been trained on ranking most appropriate Domain Models for industrial systems based on Hidden Features of the respective industrial systems. The most appropriate Domain Models represent all relevant technical aspects of the respective industrial systems.

BLOCKCHAIN-BASED DISTRIBUTION OF MEDICAL DATA RECORDS
A method is for providing a uniform resource locator. In an embodiment, the method includes receiving a medical data record via an interface, the medical data record being related to a patient; determining the uniform resource locater related to the medical data record via a computation unit, the uniform resource locator including an authorization token based on the medical data record, the medical data record being accessible by following the uniform resource locator; and providing the uniform resource locator with the interface to the patient. By providing a uniform resource locator of an embodiment including an authorization token, access to the medical data record can be granted fast and efficient, e.g. by a patient forwarding the uniform resource locator to another entity (e.g. a physician), while at the same time non-authorized entities cannot access the medical data record due to their lack of the suitable authorization token.
