A system and method for navigating to a target using fluoroscopic-based three dimensional volumetric data generated from two dimensional fluoroscopic images, including a catheter guide assembly including a sensor, an electromagnetic field generator, a fluoroscopic imaging device to acquire a fluoroscopic video of a target area about a plurality of angles relative to the target area, and a computing device. The computing device is configured to receive previously acquired CT data, determine the location of the sensor based on the electromagnetic field generated by the electromagnetic field generator, generate a three dimensional rendering of the target area based on the acquired fluoroscopic video, receive a selection of the catheter guide assembly in the generated three dimensional rendering, and register the generated three dimensional rendering of the target area with the previously acquired CT data to correct the position of the catheter guide assembly.

Disclosed is a portable three-dimensional DR system. The portable three-dimensional DR system includes a support mechanism, an X-ray generator, a stand and a flat panel detector. The support mechanism includes a support tube, a transmission component, a drive component and a support pole slidingly provided in the support tube. The X-ray generator is detachably provided on the support pole, the transmission component is used for driving the X-ray generator to move in the direction of closing to or far from the support tube, the drive component is used for driving the X-ray generator to rotate, the flat panel detector is provided on the stand, and the stand is placed on a horizontal plane.

A mobile DR applicable to in-vivo detection of multi-thoracolumbar variations in equine animals and a use method are provided. The DR mainly comprises four aspects: (1) a digital flat-panel X-ray imaging system; (2) equine animal retaining device system (radiography bed) applicable to different body sizes; (3) radiography parameters applicable to equine animals of different body sizes and at different developmental stages; and (4) a stitching system Polaris for radiographed pictures. The digital flat-panel X-ray imaging system comprises an X-ray tube, a beam limiting device, a high-voltage generator, a flat-panel detector, an image acquisition workstation.

Fifteen radiation tubes are arranged in a radiation source of the mammography apparatus. An irradiation field limiter includes a plate-like member having a plurality of through holes that function as irradiation openings. Adjacent through holes are arranged at an interval of one radiation tube. In the plate-like member, the position of the through holes which are irradiation openings are moved to a first set position in a case in which radiation is emitted from first radiation tubes which are some of three or more radiation tubes and a second set position in a case in which the radiation is emitted from second radiation tubes different from the first radiation tubes among the three or more radiation tubes. Therefore, one through hole is shared by two radiation tubes.

A hydraulic stabilizer system for a portable medical imaging system. The system includes at least two hydraulic cylinders each having a shaft extending through a first wall of the respective cylinder, wherein each shaft is moveable relative to the respective cylinder. First and second ends of each shaft include a spring support element and a foot for contacting associated uneven floor portions. A retraction spring is located between the spring support element and an inner surface of the first wall of each cylinder. The system also includes a hydraulic circuit for supplying hydraulic fluid to the cylinders, wherein the cylinders are in fluid communication with each other. Hydraulic fluid is pumped into the cylinders to cause downward movement of the shafts until the feet contact the associated uneven floor portions such that the pressure exerted by the feet against the associated uneven floor portions is equalized.

A modular x-ray imaging system includes an application specific module, a base unit in communication with the application specific module, and a mechanical support configured to support the x-ray application specific module. The base unit and application specific module are configured to communicate by wired and/or wireless communication.

X-ray detectors for generating digital images are disclosed. An example digital X-ray detector includes: a scintillation screen; a reflector configured to reflect light generated by the scintillation screen; and a digital imaging sensor configured to generate a digital image of the light reflected by the reflector.

An augmented reality system is provided for use with a medical imaging scanner. The AR system obtains a digital image from a camera, and identifies a pose of a gantry of the medical imaging scanner based on content of the digital image. The gantry includes a movable C-arm supporting an imaging signal transmitter and a detector panel that are movable along an arc relative to a station. A range of motion of the movable C-arm along the arc is determined based on the pose. A graphical object is generated based on the range of motion and the pose, and is provided to a display device for display as an overlay relative to the medical imaging scanner.

Methods and systems are provided for controlling movement of a mobile medical device drive platform. In one example, a mobile platform includes a chassis configured to house one or more medical devices, an omnidirectional wheel system including an omnidirectional wheel coupled to the chassis, a battery housed in the chassis, the battery configured to supply power to drive the omnidirectional wheel system and/or supply power to operate the one or more medical devices, and a battery charging system housed in the chassis, where the battery charging system is configured to facilitate wired and/or wireless charging of the battery.

A radiographic imaging system includes a radiographic detector having a scanning device to obtain patient identifying information. The detector is programmed to display the patient identifying information in human readable form and to access additional information about the patient stored in networked databases.
