MOBILE RADIOGRAPHY APPARATUS
Provided is a mobile radiography apparatus capable of performing relatively stable wireless communication even in a case in which the mobile radiography apparatus is moved due to traveling of a carriage or an arm is rotated.
A mobile radiography apparatus includes a radiation source, a radiation image detector that detects a radiation image of a subject by receiving radiation emitted from the radiation source and transmitted through the subject, an arm that holds the radiation source and the radiation image detector, a body part to which the arm is rotatably attached, a carriage on which the body part is mounted, and an antenna that emits a radio wave for wirelessly communicating with an external apparatus, the antenna being provided in a portion in which a radiation direction of the radio wave is not changed even in a case in which the arm is rotated and capable of changing the radiation direction of the radio wave.
Labeling medical scans via prompt decision trees
A method comprises displaying, via an interactive interface, a medical scan and a plurality of prompts of each prompt decision tree of a plurality of prompt decision trees in succession, beginning with automatically determined starting prompts of each prompt decision tree, in accordance with corresponding nodes of each prompt decision tree until a leaf node of each prompt decision tree is ultimately selected. Labeling data indicating the ultimately selected leaf node of each prompt decision tree is determined for the medical scan.
MOBILE X-RAY DETECTOR, X-RAY IMAGING APPARATUS INCLUDING MOBILE X-RAY DETECTOR, AND OPERATING METHOD OF MOBILE X-RAY DETECTOR AND X-RAY IMAGING APPARATUS
A method, performed by a mobile X-ray detector, of processing an X-ray image, including generating the X-ray image of an object by detecting an X-ray transmitted through the object and converting the detected X-ray into an electrical signal; detecting a power supply stoppage which prevents transmission of the generated X-ray image from the mobile X-ray detector to a workstation; based on the detecting of the power supply stoppage, storing the X-ray image in a nonvolatile memory inside the mobile X-ray detector; and after storing the X-ray image, deactivating the mobile X-ray detector.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR CALIBRATING, CORRECTING AND PROCESSING IMAGES ON A RADIOGRAPHIC DETECTOR
A radiographic imaging system includes a radiographic detector programmed to display the patient identifying information in human readable form and to access information about the patient stored in locations accessible through a network. Embodiments of methods and/or apparatus for a radiographic imaging system can include a radiographic detector including an image receptor to receive incident radiation and generate uncorrected electronic image data; network accessible storage and/or processor to generate calibration-corrected image data from the uncorrected electronic image data provided from the detector. The calibration-corrected image data can be further processed by the network accessible processor before transmitting a corrected image (e.g., DICOM image) back to the radiographic imaging system.
X RAY IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD
Provided is an X ray image processing method including the following. One of computing modules stored in an X ray device is activated, in which the one of the computing modules corresponds to a measurement area. The measurement area corresponding to the one of the computing modules is measured by an image measurement module, and a measurement signal is produced. The measurement signal is transmitted to a computing unit by the image measurement module. A measurement image is computed by the computing unit according to the measurement signal, and is stored in a first storage unit in the X ray device. The one of the computing modules is written to the computing unit. The measurement image is transmitted to the computing unit by the first storage unit. The measurement image is analyzed by the computing unit using the one of the computing modules, and an analysis image is generated.
Radiation imaging apparatus comprising a first scintillator plate, a second scintillator plate, and an imaging portion, and radiation imaging system
A radiation imaging apparatus including: a first scintillator layer configured to convert a radiation (R) which has entered the first scintillator layer into light; a second scintillator layer configured to convert a radiation transmitted through the first scintillator layer into light; a fiber optic plate (FOP) provided between the first scintillator layer and the second scintillator layer; and an imaging portion configured to convert the light generated in the first scintillator layer and the light generated in the second scintillator layer into an electric signal.
System and method for the administration of imaging devices
In a system for the administration of a group of imaging devices which are equipped with a corresponding device hosts, device software and a configuration protocol are executably stored on the device host. The system can include a distributed database system which configured to receive configuration protocols from the device host and to store modified configuration protocols for the respective device host, and to distribute modified configuration protocols. The received and/or stored configuration protocols are made available via a central write access. The system can include an administrator having a memory, a user interface and a processor for communicating with the distributed database system. Configuration protocols can be modified via the user interface and sent to the distributed database system for storage and/or distribution to at least one selected imaging device. These aspects are also applicable to a method for the administration of imaging devices.
GENERATING X-RAY IMAGES AND INDICATING DIAGNOSES ASSOCIATED WITH THE X-RAY IMAGES
In some implementations, a device may produce, via an x-ray module, x-rays to be directed towards a body part. The device may detect, via a sensor, the x-rays reflected from the body part. The device may generate, via the sensor, signals based on the x-rays reflected from the body part. The device may generate, via a processor, an x-ray image of the body part based on the first signals. The device may transmit the x-ray image to a server. The device may receive, from the server, a message that indicates a diagnosis associated with the x-ray image. The device may display, via a user interface, the x-ray image and information associated with the diagnosis associated with the x-ray image.
Medical document display control apparatus, medical document display control method, and medical document display control program
The medical document display control apparatus includes a reception unit that receives observation information on a subject, an acquisition unit that acquires relation information on an analysis result obtained by immediately analyzing the observation information received by the reception unit, and a display control unit that immediately displays the relation information acquired by the acquisition unit on a display unit.
Multiple operating point false positive removal for lesion identification
A false positive removal engine is provided. The false positive removal engine receives detected objects in one or more images. A machine learning classifier computer model, configured with first operational parameters to implement a first operating point, processes the received input to classify each detected object as being a true positive or a false positive to generate a first set of object classifications. If the first set is empty, the false positive removal engine outputs the first set as a filtered list of objects; otherwise the ML classifier computer model is configured with second operational parameters to implement a second operating point, different from the first operating point, which then processes the received input to classify each detected object and generate a second set of objects classified as true positive, which is output by the false positive removal engine as the filtered list of objects.
