Apparatuses and method are provided for collecting information for imaging. The apparatus has an array of two or more electropermanent magnets, and one or more limited magnetic sensors. The array and limited magnetic sensor are configured to be positioned in a vicinity of a region of interest,

An image generation apparatus includes a plurality of electrodes, a plurality of sensor cells, and a controller configured to provide a tomographic image of a measurement object on the basis of an intensity of a magnetic field generated by an alternating current supplied via the plurality of electrodes. The controller acquires the intensity of the magnetic field via the plurality of sensor cells.

The test lab set-up includes a test flow bench for mounting one or more test devices, an adjustable nozzle for simulating urine flow, and a sensor for collecting data associated with the simulated urine flowing through the test device(s). A computing device for measuring and/or calculating various parameters associated with the simulated urine flow may also be included. The test device may have a shape corresponding to a handheld uroflowmeter subject to testing. The angle of the adjustable nozzle may be adjusted to test for various angles of urine flow. Similarly, the angle, pitch, and roll of the test device may be adjusted to test for various angles at which a uroflowmeter is held. As fluid flows through the test device, the sensor collects information such as, for example, flow rate, duration, volume, and the like. The sensor transmits the data collected to a computing device for additional processing.

The present invention includes an apparatus and method for blood pressure trend determination of a subject comprising: a housing; at least one of a photoplethysmographic (PPG) sensor or a magnetic sensor in or on the housing and adapted to be worn by the subject, wherein the PPG/magnetic sensor uses a pulse oximeter to measure changes in skin light absorption; a processor for receiving a signal from the at least one of the PPG sensor or the magnetic sensor measurements, wherein the processor comprises a non-transitory computer readable medium having instruction stored thereon, wherein the instructions, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to: measure a trend analysis results to determine the blood pressure trend over a time period; and an input/output device that at least one of stores, displays, or transmits blood pressure trend of the subject.

A stretch-measurement probe includes an elongate outer sleeve, expansion feature associated with a distal portion of the outer sleeve, and an elongate inner rod disposed at least partially within the outer sleeve. The expansion feature is configured to allow a longitudinal distance between a proximal end of the outer sleeve and the distal end of the outer sleeve to be varied.

Disclosed is an antenna device for measuring biometric information by using dark mode excitation. The antenna device according to an embodiment may include a conducting wire forming a loop. A current may be induced into the loop through an interaction with a magnetic field generated by an antenna connected to a power source. Information on an analyte may be sensed using a magnetic field formed based on the current induced into the loop.

The present description concerns a support helmet (130) for a medical imaging or treatment device, comprising a head cap (131) provided with a plurality of through openings (133), each opening being adapted to receiving an elementary imaging or treatment module (110) assembled in the opening so as to slide along an axis substantially orthogonal to the head cap.

An imaging capsule including, a radiation source, a collimator that provides a collimated beam from the radiation source, at least one detector configured to detect particles resulting from X-ray fluorescence and/or Compton backscattering in response to the collimated beam to reconstruct images of a user's gastrointestinal tract, wherein the imaging capsule is configured to identify an inflamed area, within the user's gastrointestinal tract, based on a count of the detected particles and initiate actions responsive to detecting the inflamed area.

A magnetoencephalography (MEG) apparatus comprising a helmet shaped and configured to fit a range of human head sizes and/or shapes, the helmet comprising a plurality of openings disposed in predetermined locations around the helmet, each opening being adapted to receive a magnetoencephalography field sensor in an arrangement such that the magnetoencephalography field sensor is moveable in a direction towards or away from a human head inside the helmet

A modular wristband and sensor system and method of using the same are disclosed. The system uses top and bottom sensor modules that contain conductive ports for connection to wristbands' conductive ports. The wristbands' conductive ports are electrically connected to wires embedded within each wristband segment. These allow for the transfer of data and power between the bands and the top and bottom sensor modules. Having power and data conducted through wristbands into sensors makes it possible for wristband sensors to have swappable bands while maintaining connectivity. Other embodiments include a wristband that includes swappable top and bottom sensor modules communicating wirelessly with each other.
