The invention provides for a medical apparatus (100, 300, 400) comprising a subject support (102) configured for moving a subject (106) from a first position (124) to a second position (130) along a linear path (134). The subject support comprises a support surface (108) for receiving the subject. The subject support is further configured for positioning the subject support in at least one intermediate position (128). The subject support is configured for measuring a displacement (132) along the linear path between the first position and the at least one intermediate position. Each of the at least one intermediate position is located between the first position and the second position. The medical apparatus further comprises a camera (110) configured for imaging the support surface in the first position. Execution of machine executable instructions 116 cause the a processor (116) controlling the medical apparatus to: acquire (200) an initial image (142) with the camera when the subject support is in the first position; control (202) the subject support to move the subject support from the first position to the second position; acquire (204) at least one intermediate image (144) with the camera and the displacement for each of the at least one intermediate image as the subject support is moved from the first position to the second position; and calculate (206) a height profile (150, 600, 604) of the subject by comparing the initial image and the at least one intermediate image. The height profile is at least partially calculated using the displacement. The height profile is descriptive of the spatially dependent height of the subject above the support surface.

An information processing system includes a first information processing apparatus including a first inference unit configured to perform first inference processing on inference target medical data using a first partial model including an input layer and at least some of intermediate layers and corresponding to a plurality of second partial models, and a first output unit configured to output a result of the first inference processing and selection information to a second information processing apparatus, and the second information processing apparatus including a second inference unit configured to perform second inference processing by inputting a result of the first inference processing to a second partial model selected from among the plurality of second partial models based on the selection information.

Computer-implemented digital image analysis methods, apparatuses, and systems for robotic installation of surgical implants are disclosed. A disclosed apparatus plans a route within an anatomy of a patient from an incision site to a surgical implant site for robotic installation of a surgical implant. The apparatus uses digital imaging data to identify less-invasive installation paths and determine the dimensions of the surgical implant components being used. The apparatus segments the surgical implant into surgical implant subcomponents and modifies the surgical implant subcomponents, such that they can be inserted using the identified less-invasive installation paths.

A method, computer program product, and computing system for receiving a notification that a patient has arrived to a telehealth session before the telehealth session begins. The notification is received via a computing device. In response to receiving the notification that the patient has arrived to the telehealth session before the telehealth session begins, information associated with the patient is automatically pulled by a virtual assistant. The patient is prompted by the virtual assistant to complete a task before the telehealth session begins. A question is received from the patient before the telehealth session begins. Patient data may be obtained from one or more sources. The obtained patient data is processed to determine if the patient data is indicative of a possible medical condition and the medical condition is provided to a medical professional. An answer to the question is provided. The answer is personalized to the patient.

Computer implemented biometric methods and systems incorporate sensing biophysical phenomena, translating the phenomena into digital data and transmitting the data to a series of servers operating in an open feedback loop to generate a module. A biometric networking system can include a biometric monitoring cloud computing platform with AI/machine learning augmented models are generated to make user assessments, programs and confidence scores to the healthcare provider systems. The AI/machine learning models can be used by the biometric monitoring network to generate health-related AI processes that analyze relationships treatment techniques and outcomes. AI techniques can be used to calculate movement modeling and confidence scoring including support vector machines, neural networks, and decision trees. The biophysical phenomena may include biometric parameters based on data, such as medical history, exertion, sleep, temperature, cardiovascular events, respiratory events, and muscle and blood pH.

A system is provided for augmenting a three-dimensional (3D) model of a heart to indicate the tissue state. The system accesses a 3D model of a heart, accesses two-dimensional (2D) images of tissue state slices of the heart, and accesses source location information of an arrhythmia. The system augments the 3D model with an indication of a source location based on the source location information. For each of a plurality of the tissue state slices of the heart, the system augments a 3D model slice of the 3D model that corresponds to that tissue state slice with an indication of the tissue state of the heart represented by the tissue state information of that tissue state slice. The system then displays a representation of the 3D model that indicates the source location of the arrhythmia and the tissue state of the heart.

Methods, apparatuses, and systems for robotic insertion of a screw, a rod, or another component of a surgical implant into a patient are disclosed. Clinical data from previous surgical procedures or information received from a supervising surgeon can be leveraged to minimize the risk of harm to the patient and improve outcomes. The methods disclosed thus provide more precise placement of implanted surgical components and implants.

Various systems and methods for controlling the activation of energy surgical instruments are disclosed. An advance energy surgical instrument, such an electrosurgical instrument or an ultrasonic surgical instrument, can include one or more sensor assemblies for detecting the state or position of the end effector, arm, or other components of the surgical instrument. A control circuit can be configured to control the activation of the surgical instrument according to the state or position of the components of the surgical instrument.
