International Classification:

H04M 342

US Classification:

37921501, 37926603

Abstract:

A telecommunications server ( ) includes a timed recall request unit ( ) coupled to a timer ( ). The timed recall request unit ( ) interfaces to the call park service ( ) and/or the call hold service ( ). When a request for a call park or call hold is made, the user is given the option of electing timed recall or no recall. If a timed recall is desired, the timed recall request unit ( ) is accessed to permit the user to either accept a default length of time or to input a desired length of time. If the user manually retrieves the held or parked call prior to expiration of the timer, the timer ( ) is reset.

International Classification:

H04M 1104

US Classification:

379 45, 379 49, 379157

Abstract:

Methods for accurate transmission of ELIN/callback number from an emergency caller calling from behind a PBX/MLTS include assigning a port equipment number to each device/trunk of the PBX/MLTS and associating ports/devices with ELINs and callback numbers. The apparatus of the invention detects an emergency number, assigns the call priority, and uses the port/device number to determine the ELIN/callback number and properly transmit the ELIN/callback number.

Appl. No.:

09/568785

Inventors:

Richard Frank - Coral Springs FL

Assignee:

Siemens Information and Communication Networks, Inc. - Boca Raton FL

International Classification:

H04M 342

US Classification:

37921601, 455445

Abstract:

A telecommunications system provides âfeature forwardingâ between a fixed telephone unit (such as a desktop wired telephone) and a portable telephone unit (such as a cellular telephone) that are assigned to the same prime telephone number. Thus, only one of the two phones in the telephone pair is accessible (e. g. , is forwarded ring signals) at any one time. In one embodiment, the system monitors changes in state regarding whether or not the wireless telephone is in a power recharging state. When the wireless telephone is connected to a power recharger, the wired telephone is designated as the current exclusive telephone to which service features are to be applied. On the other hand, when the wireless telephone is removed from the power recharging state, the common user information necessary for seamlessly implementing common features is reallocated to providing service to the wireless telephone. The common features may include a last number redial feature, a saved number redial feature, and/or features related to accessing voice mail messages.

International Classification:

H04M011/00

US Classification:

379 45, 379 37

Abstract:

Methods for accurate transmission of ELIN/callback number from an emergency caller calling from behind a PBX/MLTS include prioritizing the emergency call, assigning a port equipment number to each device/trunk of the PBX/MLTS and associating ports/devices with ELINs and callback numbers. The apparatus of the invention detects an emergency number, assigns the call priority, and uses the port/device number to determine the ELIN/callback number and properly transmit the ELIN/callback number.

International Classification:

G06K 9/62
G06N 20/00
G06N 5/04
G16H 30/40
G16H 30/20
G16H 40/20

Abstract:

A system and method for identifying abnormal medical images. The system can be configured to receive a medical image, segment an anatomical structure from the medical image to define a segmented dataset, register the segmented dataset to a baseline dataset defining a normal anatomical structure, classify, by an abnormality classifier, whether the anatomical structure within the medical image as either abnormal or normal, wherein the abnormality classifier comprises a machine learning algorithm trained to distinguish between normal and abnormal versions of the anatomical structure in medical images, and based on whether the anatomical structure can be segmented from the medical image, whether the segmented dataset can be registered to the baseline dataset, or a classification associated with the medical image output by the abnormality classifier, flagging the medical image as either normal or abnormal.

G01R 33/56

Abstract:

In a method and a computer for identifying a group of persons, from a number of persons, to whom at least one contrast agent has been applied during an examination which was carried out in an imaging system with which medical images of each of the number of persons were produced, existing examination data provided for each of the number of persons are used to determine to which of those persons the at least one contrast agent was applied. The persons to whom at least one contrast agent was applied during the examination are identified as a group of persons. For each person in the group, person-specific contrast agent data are determined that include at least identification information identifying the person to whom the at least one contrast agent was applied, and contrast agent information identifying the fact that the at least one contrast agent was applied. A designation of each person in the group of persons is stored with that person's corresponding person-specific contrast agent data in a register.
