Systems, methods, and apparatus are disclosed for determining quantitative hormone and chemical analyte results from qualitative test results. An image is taken of an ovulation test device. The image is analyzed to identify a color intensity ratio (T/C ratio) between a color density of a test-line to a color density of a control-line. Additionally, a quantitative substance level may be determined using the T/C ratio, by identifying the type of test device and referencing a data structure that relates quantitative substance levels to T/C ratios for the identified type of test device.

The disclosure provides a system that may receive an identification of a first patient; may receive a first template that includes first multiple locations associated with a face of the first patient and associated with the identification of the first patient; may determine second multiple locations associated with a face of a current patient; may determine a second template of the face of the current patient based at least on the second multiple locations associated with the face of the current patient; may determine if the first template matches the second template; if the first template matches the second template, may provide an indication that the current patient has been correctly identified as the first patient; and if the first template does not match the second template, may provide an indication that the current patient has not been identified.

Data collection from a medicament delivery device

A data collection apparatus comprises a camera configured to obtain first and second recordings of at least a portion of a medicament delivery device, said portion including a first component and a second component, the first component being configured to move relative to the second component as medicament is expelled from the medicament delivery device. The data collection apparatus also comprises a processing arrangement configured to determine, from said first and second recordings, positions in the first and second recordings of the first component relative to the second component, and determine an amount of medicament that has been expelled by the medicament delivery device by comparing the position, in the first recording, of the first component relative to the second component with a position, in the second recording, of the first component relative to the second component.

SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR MITIGATING COLLISION OF A ROBOTIC SYSTEM
20220366594 · 2022-11-17 ·

Systems and methods are provided to mitigate potential collisions between a person and robotic system. In various embodiments, a robotic surgical system includes a robotic linkage including joints, an endoscope coupled to a distal portion of the robotic linkage and configured to capture stereoscopic images, and a controller in communication with the endoscope. The controller executes instructions to analyze the stereoscopic images from the endoscope to identify a human-held tool in the stereoscopic images and to estimate a type and/or pose of the human-held tool, infer a position of a person holding the human-held tool based on the type and/or pose of the human-held tool, determine a spatial relationship between the person and the robotic linkage based on the inferred position of the person, and generate a warning of potential collision between the person and the robotic linkage based on the determined spatial relationship.

Method for monitoring object flow within a surgical space during a surgery

One variation of a method for tracking objects within a surgical space during a surgery includes: based on a first image depicting the surgical space at a first time, detecting a first object and a constellation of objects in the surgical space, estimating distances from each object—in the constellation of objects—to the first object, and calculating a contamination risk of the first object based on contamination scores and distances to the first object for each object in the constellation of objects; calculating a contamination score of the first object based on a combination of the contamination risks of the first object during the surgery; and, in response to the contamination score of the first object exceeding a threshold contamination score prior to contact between the first object and a patient, serving a prompt within the surgical space to address sterility of the first object.

INTERACTIVE ENDOSCOPY FOR INTRAOPERATIVE VIRTUAL ANNOTATION IN VATS AND MINIMALLY INVASIVE SURGERY

A controller (522) for live annotation of interventional imagery includes a memory (52220) that stores software instructions and a processor (52210) that executes the software instructions. When executed by the processor (52210), the software instructions cause the controller (522) to implement a process that includes receiving (S210) interventional imagery during an intraoperative intervention and automatically analyzing (S220) the interventional imagery for detectable features. The process executed when the processor (52210) executes the software instructions also includes detecting (S230) a detectable feature and determining (S240) at add an annotation to the interventional imagery for the detectable feature. The processor further includes identifying (S250) a location for the annotation as an identified location in the interventional imagery and adding (S260) the annotation to the interventional imagery at the identified location to correspond to the detectable feature. During the intraoperative intervention, a video is output (S270) as video output based on interventional imagery and the annotation, including the annotation overlaid on the interventional imagery at the identified location.
