The present disclosure relates to noninvasive methods, devices, and systems for measuring various blood constituents or analytes, such as glucose. In an embodiment, a light source comprises LEDs and super-luminescent LEDs. The light source emits light at at least wavelengths of about 1610 nm, about 1640 nm, and about 1665 nm. In an embodiment, the detector comprises a plurality of photodetectors arranged in a special geometry comprising one of a substantially linear substantially equal spaced geometry, a substantially linear substantially non-equal spaced geometry, and a substantially grid geometry.

An electronic device includes a sensor capable of detecting pulsation at a target portion of a subject; a housing, at least a part of which includes the sensor; a stand part that supports the housing, and that leans against the target portion via the housing; and an elastic member disposed between the housing and the stand part.

Described herein are method and apparatuses (devices and systems) for determining tissue wetness, and particularly lung wetness. In particular, described herein are apparatuses including patch sensors having a plurality of electrodes one a substrate that includes alignment tabs for aiding in alignment. Also described herein are patch sensors having one or more substrate modifications to enhance local flexibility of the patch. Finally, described herein are apparatuses for determining lung wetness that determine the contour of the body region onto which the patch is applied, e.g., using a diagnostic tool to measure body contour.

The methods, systems, and computer program products described herein enable the amount of information that can be acquired during a defined period of vestibular testing to be significantly increased while also significantly reducing the time required to collect data during such vestibular testing. These objects are achieved by intelligent data collection methods and systems configured to adaptively control a motion platform in a way that increases the amount of information gleaned from each data collection event and to achieve synergies based on the different types of, and the order of, data analysis and calibration methods used.

The present invention relates to a novel approach means of screening various skin surfaces, including hard to reach areas of the human body, as well as more commonly seen areas such as the foot. The present invention can help patients, especially those who are immobile or those with diabetes self-monitor and transmit the skin condition accurately, so that medical providers may assess the risk or presence of skin tissue breakdown. Thus, provision is made for a remote screening device that can be used in telemedicine or home self-monitoring approaches and offers high resolution image, without artifacts or other distortions that might arise from images taken of feet that have been compressed through standing and the like.

Human mesh model recovery may utilize prior knowledge of the hierarchical structural correlation between different parts of a human body. Such structural correlation may be between a root kinematic chain of the human body and a head or limb kinematic chain of the human body. Shape and/or pose parameters relating to the human mesh model may be determined by first determining the parameters associated with the root kinematic chain and then using those parameters to predict the parameters associated with the head or limb kinematic chain. Such a task can be accomplished using a system comprising one or more processors and one or more storage devices storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to implement one or more neural networks trained to perform functions related to the task.

It is disclosed an apparatus for restoring voluntary control of locomotion in a subject suffering from a neuromotor impairment comprising a multidirectional trunk support system and a device for epidural electrical stimulation. The robotic interface is capable of evaluating, enabling and training motor pattern generation and balance across a variety of natural walking behaviors in subjects with neuromotor impairments. Optionally, pharmacological cocktails can be administered to enhance rehabilitation results. It is also disclosed a method for the evaluation, enablement and training of a subject suffering from neuromotor impairments by combining robotically assisted evaluation tools with sophisticated neurobiomechanical and statistical analyses. A method for the rehabilitation (by this term also comprising restoring voluntary control of locomotion) of a subject suffering from a neuromotor impairment in particular partial or total paralysis of limbs, is also disclosed.

A mobile terminal including a terminal body having a metal case and defining an appearance of the mobile terminal; a display disposed on one surface of the terminal body; an antenna having a radiator provided on a functional area of the metal case, the antenna unit configured to execute wireless communication; a plurality of electrodes provided on one portion of the functional area and configured to generate current; and a controller configured to in response to a user grasping the mobile terminal such that the electrodes are in contact with the user, measure a body fat of the user based on voltages sensed by the electrodes, and display screen information on the display related to the determined body fat measurement.

A patient couch is disclosed. In an embodiment, the patient couch includes a docking facility for mechanical docking on a docking point of a medical imaging installation; a drive unit including a plurality of wheels for a drive movement of the patient couch up to a docking position, where the docking facility reaches the docking point; at least one sensor, to acquire sensor signals characterizing a relative position between the medical imaging installation and the patient couch; a computing unit to calculate a movement trajectory with a destination of the docking position for the patient couch, based on the sensor signals acquired; and a display facility, to display the movement trajectory calculated for a user.

An apparatus and method for determining contours of a patient's foot ankle and lower leg. The apparatus includes an alignment structure that orientates the foot for imaging. The alignment structure includes at least one support member that engages the plantar surface of the foot substantially only in the immediate area of the lateral metatarsal heads of the foot, preferably the fifth metatarsal head. The support generates a dorsally-directed force that locks the midtarsal joint. The alignment structure further includes a saddle that engages the rearfoot and a laser beam for aligning the second metatarsal head with the distal one-third of the lower leg to place the subtalar joint in a neutral condition. The foot is thus suspended in space such that imaging is able to produce an accurate measurement of the subject areas of the foot, ankle and lower leg without distortion of the soft tissues or bone structure.
