2023 JAN 09 (NewsRx) -- By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Insurance Daily News -- From Washington, D.C., NewsRx journalists report that a patent application by the inventors BAI, Hua (Beijing, CN); WANG, Bingdong (Beijing, CN); WANG, Yunan (Beijing, CN); YANG, Limin (Beijing, CN), filed on November 25, 2020, was made available online on December 22, 2022.

No assignee for this patent application has been made.

News editors obtained the following quote from the background information supplied by the inventors: “With the progress of society and the gradual improvement of living standards, people’s health awareness and disease prevention awareness are constantly enhanced, and health management is becoming more and more important in people’s lives. However, at the current stage, users only pay attention to the particular health parameter(s) of the human body, or do not know the impact of the contents of various physical examination items in the physical examination report on their own health status after the completion of the physical examination, which makes them unable or neglect to assess their own health status; or, although they know their own health status, they do not know how to take effective measures to intervene. In addition, due to the inconveniences of data collection and sorting, users often do not tend to preserve and manage health history data.

“In addition, after decades of development, human body models have experienced the process from single sample to multi sample and from static state to dynamic state. However, current human body models are still insufficient. First of all, the number of human body samples included in a human body model is still limited. For example, at present, the human body model with the greatest number of samples only includes 10 human body samples, which can only provide a small number of samples of different ages, heights and weights, but cannot reflect the statistical rules of anatomical deformation in the population, cannot be used to generate a personalized human body variable model, or generates a low-precise personalized human body variable model. If the personalized human body variable model is calculated by a conventional statistical method, it will occupy a lot of computing resources, require high computing and time costs and have narrow applicability.

“It should be understood that human body is an extremely complex integrated organic system. In order to effectively monitor their own health status, people must have a clear and accurate understanding of the human body. Based on the existing anatomical knowledge and display technology, people can understand the entire human body and the composition of various parts. However, in the field of human body models, a complex human body model is often displayed with various organs or tissues mutually penetrated or occluded, thereby rendering it difficult to observe and operate, which is unfavourable for the ordinary people without professional medical knowledge to clearly understand the human body information. In addition, everyone has unique individual characteristics, such that each human body is a unique system, and the system has been undergoing dynamic changes. Therefore, with the help of the existing technologies, it is difficult to accurately and truly display everyone’s human body information, such as the spatial position of each system in the human body or the mutual relationships between the systems, nor is it possible to freely realize interactive cognition of the displayed human body information, that is, conveniently and quickly checking the human body information dynamically from any angle according to the user’s own will.”
