MUMBAI, India, Feb. 27 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641018801 A) filed by Mohan Babu University; and Dr. J Avanija, Tirupati, Andhra Pradesh, on Feb. 19, for 'intelligent system for early diagnosis of neurodegenerative diseases.'
Inventor(s) include Dr. J. Avanija; Dr. K. Reddy Madhavi; and Mr. Allam Gowri Shankar.
The application for the patent was published on Feb. 27, under issue no. 09/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention describes an intelligent deep learning-based diagnostic system for the detection of neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and other related disorders using medical imaging data. A hybrid deep learning architecture is proposed that amalgamates Convolutional Neural Networks with lightweight models such as MobileNet for the automated analysis of MRI and CT scans with a high degree of accuracy and low computational cost. The approach preprocesses medical images to standardize their inputs and then applies state-of-the-art feature extraction methodologies to identify subtle structural abnormalities during the onset of neurodegenerative diseases. Besides not being subjective, unlike traditional diagnostic methodologies, the outcomes of the present invention are automated, consistent, and real-time. The lightweight MobileNet architecture makes it very suitable for mobile and edge devices in remote and resource-constrained settings. The system provides an easy-to-use interface for image uploads, viewing predictions, and heatmaps highlighting the affected brain regions. Designed to support multi-disease classification and continuous model improvement, the invention herein represents a scalable and accessible tool to improve early detection, clinical decision-making, and ultimately offers better patient care."
