A portable system to be inserted within the birth canal for measuring dilation of a cervical region is disclosed. The system comprises a housing having a first portion sized to conform to a user's hand thereby defining a handle and a second portion sized to be inserted into the birth canal. The system includes two structured light sources configured to project a pattern onto the cervical region, a sensor, a trigger interface, a power source, and the processor configured for capturing image sensor data. The processor is configured for receiving image data from the sensor, processing the image sensor data, calculating a measurement of the dilation of the cervical region, and transmitting the data. The processor will transmit the data onto the display, presenting the measurement of dilation as well as a visual representation of the measurement.

An endoscope system includes a light source that emits illumination light, an image sensor that captures an image of an object toward which the illumination light is emitted, and a processor. The processor is configured to determine whether a fluid is present in the object. If the fluid is not present in the object, the processor switches to a first observation mode in which to illuminate the object by first illumination light. If the fluid is present in the object, the processor switches to a second observation mode in which to illuminate the object by second illumination light. The second illumination light includes is larger than the first illumination light in a relative ratio of long wavelength components.

The dental bridge fitting system is a medical device. The dental bridge fitting system is configured for use in measuring the oral surface contours of a patient. The measurements taken by the dental bridge fitting system allow for the fabrication of a dental prosthetic device, such as a bridge, that fits flush on the oral surface that was measured by the dental bridge fitting system. The dental bridge fitting system comprises a mouthpiece, a plurality of capture devices, an image processor, and a master processor. The mouthpiece contains the plurality of capture devices. The plurality of capture devices, the image processor, and the master processor are electrically interconnected.

A method of displaying an operational parameter of a surgical system is disclosed. The method includes receiving, by a cloud computing system of the surgical system, first usage data, from a first subset of surgical hubs of the surgical system; receiving, by the cloud computing system, second usage data, from a second subset of surgical hubs of the surgical system; analyzing, by the cloud computing system, the first and the second usage data to correlate the first and the second usage data with surgical outcome data; determining, by the cloud computing system, based on the correlation, a recommended medical resource usage configuration; and displaying, on respective displays on the first and the second subset of surgical hubs, indications of the recommended medical resource usage configuration.

The Self-Orienting Imaging Device and Methods of Use sense the orientation of the handheld imaging, and apply the rotational correction by rotating the image to be displayed. When a scanner is used, the scanning element in the scanner is adjusted, such that the eventual scanning direction remains unchanged referencing the subject anatomy. The self-orienting mechanism for the scanner may be implemented in hardware mechanisms.

A medical imaging system is described that comprises an heating element configured to apply at least one heating pattern element to a material to locally heat the material; a sensor configured to capture the position of the heated material a predetermined time after the application of the heating pattern element; and circuitry configured to determine the change of the heating pattern applied to the material based upon the captured position of the heated material after the predetermined time.

Methods, endoscopic systems, and non-transitory, machine-readable storage media for adjusting an exposure of an endoscopic system are described. In an embodiment, the methods include emitting light with a light source into a proximal end of an endoscope light pipe; generating received light signals with a photodetector based on light received through the endoscope light pipe by the photodetector; displaying, with a display module, images based on the received light signals having a current image brightness; monitoring the received light signals for changes to the current image brightness; and adjusting a light source illuminance level, and in some embodiments a photodetector gain and exposure time, based on the current image brightness to maintain a target image brightness of the display module. In an embodiment, a brightness adjustment step size is less than a just-noticeable difference in brightness of an eye and is directly proportional to the current image brightness.

A medical appliance including a housing having a front face for displaying and, on the opposite side, a rear face, the housing being equipped with at least three legs to keep the medical appliance in a stable position when set down on a supporting surface, at least one of the legs being a hanging leg projecting out from the housing in the form of an arm and ending at its free end in a curved part, the housing being equipped with a fixing system for fixing to support equipment in such a way that each hanging leg is clear of the supporting surface so that at least one medical device can be hooked onto each hanging leg.

A surgical operation support apparatus 1 for performing effective display with respect to a target site image according to the situation has a detection unit 2 that detects a target site image from an image capturing an inside of a living body, an estimation unit 3 that estimates whether the target site image is being observed, and a display information generation unit 4 that generates a first display for facilitating observation of the target site image, if it is estimated that the target site image is being observed.

An information processing apparatus (2000) detects an abnormal region (30) from a predetermined range (16) of a video frame (14). The information processing apparatus (2000) determines whether a predetermined condition is satisfied in a case where the abnormal region (30) is detected from the predetermined range (16) of a certain video frame (14) and the abnormal region (30) is not detected from the predetermined range (16) of a predetermined video frame (14) generated later than the video frame (14). In a case where the predetermined condition is not satisfied, the information processing apparatus (2000) performs a predetermined notification.
