MR image-guided radiation controlling device
There is provided a patient's cranial position monitoring and controlling device for controlling a magnetic resonance (MR) guided radiation source module via an MR-guided radiation controlling device connected to the patient's cranial position monitoring and controlling device and an MR-guided radiation system including a patient's cranial position monitoring and controlling device, which allows for better MR-imaging while allowing patient position monitoring close to the patient.
HEADSETS AND ELECTRODES FOR GATHERING ELECTROENCEPALOGRAPHIC DATA
Example headsets and electrodes are described herein. Example electrode units described herein include a housing having a cavity defined by an opening in a side of the housing and an electrode. In some such examples, the electrode includes a ring disposed in the opening and an arm, where the arm has a first portion extending outward from the opening away from the housing and a second portion extending from an end of the first portion toward the housing and into the cavity, and the first and second portions connect at a bend.
OPTO-ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING VISUAL ORIENTATION
An opto-electronic device (100) is disclosed. The opto-electronic device (100) comprises at least one sensor (106) configured to obtain head orientation data including information on an orientation of a user's head, a processing unit (112) configured to process the head orientation data so as to obtain self motion data including information on the user's self motion and to provide at least one visual cue (114) based on the obtained self motion data, and a display device (120) configured to display the at least one visual cue (114) at a dis-play (102) at least in a periphery of a visual field of the user. Further, a method for providing visual orientation is disclosed.
METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR DETERMINING THE AMOUNT OF OXYGEN REQUIRED BY A USER WITH RESPIRATORY PROBLEMS
A method and a system for determining the amount of oxygen required by a user with respiratory problems are disclosed. First data about several users with respiratory problems is stored in a database. The method a) collects second data from a monitored user while (s)he is performing a test at a first location; b) computes a user’s behavioral model executing a first algorithm on the first and second data; c) collects, every period of time t1, third data of the user while (s)he is performing an activity at a second location; d) adjusts, every period of time t2, the computed user’s behavioral model using the first algorithm, providing a customized user’s behavioral model as a result; and e) computes an estimator of the quantity of oxygen to be delivered to the user by executing a second algorithm on the customized user’s behavioral model.
APPARATUS, SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ELECTROMAGNETIC IMAGING
An electromagnetic (EM) tomography head scanner comprising an antenna chamber, a radio frequency and microwave circuit, a control and monitoring unit, and a signal processing unit and an artificial intelligence unit.
System and device for improving sleep quality
A device and system for promoting more recuperative sleep by regulating a user's body temperature. This may be done by using a series of devices that measure information about the user both while they are awake and while they are asleep, communicate that information to a processing unit, and create an ideal body temperature range profile based on that information. A temperature stimulus device may ensure that the core body temperature of the user stays substantially within the ideal body temperature range. By keeping the core body temperature of the user within the calculated range, the device and system will ensure deeper, and therefore more recuperative, sleep.
System and Method for Evaluating Neurological Conditions
In described embodiments, a device and method for diagnosing brain and neurological issues is provided. The device measures the performance of Convergence, Divergence, and binocular tracking capabilities of a subject's eyes, which can be used to determine whether a subject has experienced a brain or other neurological event.
System for CO2 removal
A system for carbon dioxide (CO2) removal from a circulatory system of a patient includes a medical device providing extracorporeal lung assist (ECLA) treatment to the patient through extracorporeal removal of CO2 from the patient's blood; at least one control unit controlling the operation of the medical device so as to control a degree of CO2 removal obtained by the ECLA treatment; and a bioelectric sensor detecting a bioelectric signal indicative of the patient's efforts to breathe. The at least one control unit is configured to control the operation of the medical device based on the detected bioelectric signal.
INFRARED TELE-VIDEO-OCULOGRAPHY FOR REMOTE EVALUATION OF EYE MOVEMENTS
A system to perform remote oculography includes light-occluding goggles configured to be worn by a patient. The light-occluding goggles include an infrared camera positioned to capture one or more first images of a first eye of the patient. The light-occluding goggles also include a display positioned such that it is viewable by a second eye of the patient. The display is configured to display a pattern for the patient to view. The light-occluding goggles also include a sensor configured to detect information regarding a position of a head of the patient. The system also includes a visible light camera configured to capture one or more second images of the patient as the patient wears the light-occluding goggles.
Non-invasive optical detection system and method of multiple-scattered light with swept source illumination
An optical source sweeps a source light over an optical wavelength range. An interferometer splits the source light into sample light and reference light, delivers the sample light into an anatomical structure, such that the sample light is scattered by the anatomical structure, resulting in physiological-encoded signal light that exits the anatomical structure, and combines the signal light and the reference light into an interference light pattern having an array of spatial components and a plurality of oscillation frequency components. An optical detector array detects intensity values of the array of spatial components. A processor derives an array of intensity values of each oscillation frequency component from the detected spatial component intensity value array, reduces each derived oscillation frequency component intensity value array to a single frequency component intensity value, and determines a depth of a physiological event in the anatomical structure based on the reduced frequency component intensity values.
