A device of an embodiment includes: an optical mechanism that guides light from a light source to skin tissue to scan the skin tissue; a control computation unit that controls driving of the optical mechanism, acquires tomographic images of the skin by processing optical interference signals from the optical system, and calculates a network of blood vessels on the basis of the tomographic images; and a display device that displays the network of blood vessels. The control computation unit computes autocorrelation values at coordinates in epidermis corresponding regions of the tomographic images, excludes combinations of tomographic images with the computed autocorrelation values corresponding to predetermined low autocorrelation, computes autocorrelation values at coordinates in dermis corresponding regions, determines coordinates at which the autocorrelation values in the dermis corresponding regions are within a predetermined low correlation range to be blood vessels or blood vessel candidates, and calculates a network of blood vessels.

The present technology relates to an information processing device, an information processing method, and a program capable of facilitating fixed-point observation on skin condition. The information processing device according to an aspect of the present technology acquires an image that shows a predetermined feature point of a user who is a measurer of skin condition, and a measurement portion of skin condition, and analyzes the image, and then recognizes a position of the feature point. Furthermore, information indicating the measurement portion is displayed at a predetermined position on the image while setting, as a reference, the recognized position of the feature point. The present technology is applicable to information processing devices such as a tablet terminal, a smartphone, and a personal computer.

Provided is a medical image imaging apparatus that images a medical image of a breast, including a determination unit configured to determine an insertion state of the breast based on a form of the breast inserted into an imaging area for the medical image from an insertion portion.

A method for diagnosing a condition of a subject includes imaging an abdominal area of the subject to obtain one or more images of the abdominal area. Separation between rectus abdominis muscles in the abdominal area is located from the one or more images. Distance of the separation between the rectus abdominis muscles is quantified. The results of the quantified distance and one or more images are outputted on one or more display units.

The disclosed apparatus, systems and methods relate to tracking abdominal orientation and activity for purposes of preventing or treating conditions of pregnancy or other types of medical conditions. In certain specific embodiments, the system, device, or method relates to identifying abdominal orientation risk values, calculating and updating a cumulative risk value, comparing the cumulative risk value to a threshold, and outputting a warning when the cumulative risk value crosses the threshold.

As an IV infiltration occurs and fluid leaks into surrounding tissues, several physiological changes are expected locally. The systems and methods described herein provide a scalable automated IV infiltration detection device to provide medical staff an early warning of a possible infiltration such that they can respond accordingly. The systems and methods capture the physiological state of the user at or around a peripheral catheter insertion site by incorporating one or more modalities of wearable sensing, processing the data collected from these wearable sensors, detecting the presence of extravascular fluid, and providing an indication to a medical professional.

The present disclosure provides a device for measuring jugular venous pressure of a patient. The device comprises a body defining a longitudinal enclosure and having a window along a length of the longitudinal enclosure to allow light to exit the longitudinal enclosure, and a beam generator comprising an array of light emitters. The beam generator is configured to direct light out the window to generate a beam of light along a plane perpendicular to a longitudinal direction and at an adjustable position along the longitudinal direction. The device has an adjustment mechanism for adjusting the position of the beam of light relative to the body along the longitudinal direction, and a readout indicating the position of the beam of light along the longitudinal direction.

The present disclosure discloses a method and system for detecting visual attention. Embodiments of the present disclosure collect time sequences and corresponding pupil diameter sequences of each point of regard during visual attention process. Attention change curve is plotted according to the corresponding relationship between time sequences and pupil diameter sequences. The attention change curve is divided into four stages based on pre-setting time parameters and pupil diameter parameters. Numerical analysis of each stage is finished based on duration and rate of pupil change. Quantitative calculation of visual attention of each stage is realized, and the changing procedure of visual attention can be portrayed entirely, systematically and quantitatively.
