`Conference
`
`Date of Interview: 11 October2018
`
`Claim(s) discussed:
`
`1
`
`Identification of prior art discussed: Davatzikos et al (US 20160239969 A1)
`
`Amendment Proposed: Applicant proposed amendments over WebEx conference.
`
`Brief Description of main topic of discussion: Applicant requested clarification of the 102 rejection over Davatzikos, FIG. 3,
`claim language directed to simulated MRl parameters gnereated from microstructural models, and proposed amendments over
`WebEx.
`
`Issues Discussed:
`
`Proposed Amendments:
`Applicant proposed amendments during WebEx conference. Applicant suggested including claim language
`directed to the microstructural model and how the microstructural model is simulated within the voxel. Examiner
`
`stated that amendments directed to how the microstructural model is simulated within the voxel would appear to
`overcome the 102 rejection over Davatzikos, but more time would be required for further consideration and search.
`
`ltem(s) under 35 U.S.C. 102:
`Applicant requested clarification of the 102 rejection of claim 1 directed to the claim language of "one or more
`simulated MRI parameters being generated from one or more microstructural models at the voxel".
`Examiner interpreted the normative images of Davatzikos to be one or more simulated MRI parameter parameter
`generated from one or more microstructural models at the voxel, see paragraph 32. Further, classifying is done at
`each voxel based on the normative images, see paragraph 39.
