A digital dental x-ray sensor device includes a rounded, three dimensional housing that lacks corners, edges, or other relatively sharp features that are known to cause discomfort when used in a patient's mouth. The rounded three dimensional housing can be spherical, ellipsoid, or any similar regular or irregular rounded shape, and can be formed by ensuring that all curves of a surface of the rounded three dimensional housing have a minimum radius that is sufficient to prevent features that can dig into a soft tissue of the inside of a patient's mouth.

RADIOGRAPHY APPARATUS AND RADIOGRAPHY SYSTEM

A radiographic image capturing apparatus includes: a two-dimensional array of radiation detecting elements that generate one or more electric charges in proportion to a dose of incident radiation; and a control unit that performs control, at least, to read the electric charges from the radiation detecting elements and generate image data. An image capturing mode is switchable between a controlled mode in which the radiographic image capturing apparatus is under control of an external console and a stand-alone mode in which the radiographic image capturing apparatus autonomously performs image capturing without the control of the console. When the image capturing mode is switched to the controlled mode or the stand-alone mode, the control unit changes its own process so as to meet the switched image capturing mode.

An operating system is provided that includes a CT scanner defining a CT scan plane, and a patient table housing an antenna assembly and a moving arrangement. A method is provided that includes engaging a moving arrangement to move a patient, activating the CT scanner, and activating the antenna of an electromagnetic navigation system.

Systems and methods for brain hemorrhage classification in medical images using an artificial intelligence network

Systems and methods for rapid, accurate, fully-automated, brain hemorrhage deep learning (DL) based assessment tools are provided, to assist clinicians in the detection & characterization of hemorrhages or bleeds. Images may be acquired from a subject using an imaging source, and preprocessed to cleanup, reformat, and perform any needed interpolation prior to being analyzed by an artificial intelligence network, such as a convolutional neural network (CNN). The artificial intelligence network identifies and labels regions of interest in the image, such as identifying any hemorrhages or bleeds. An output for a user may also include a confidence value associated with the identification.
