Systems and methods utilizing a two-way mirror display for patient self-positioning for dental x-ray image acquisition. The system includes a camera configured to capture an image of a patient, a display, a two-way mirror positioned between a patient location and the display, and an electronic processor. The electronic processor is configured to select, based upon a user input, an operating mode for the display; and based upon the selected operating mode, displaying at least one image on the display. The method includes receiving image data from a camera, identifying at least one facial feature of the patient in the image data, determining if a face of the patient is aligned with at least one anatomical plane based upon the at least one facial feature, and displaying at least one movement guide on a display based upon the determined alignment of the face of the patient.

Provided is a radiographic imaging device including: a first hardware processor; a sensor that includes multiple semiconductor elements arranged two-dimensionally and multiple switch elements respectively connected to the semiconductor elements; a gate driver that causes each of the switch elements of the sensor to switch between a conductive state and non-conductive state so as to release charge from each of the semiconductor elements; and a reader that performs readout of a signal value according to an amount of the charge released by the each of the semiconductor elements of the sensor. The first hardware processor sets an imaging condition that affects a dose of radiation reaching the sensor, selects a gate readout pattern according to the set imaging condition among different gate readout patterns, and drives the gate driver and the reader using the selected gate readout pattern.

A radiography apparatus includes an upright imaging stand that is used for radiography on a subject, a camera as a detection sensor that immediately detects a state of the subject with respect to the upright imaging stand, a tablet terminal, and a reflective member. The tablet terminal displays a notification screen including an image output from the camera. The reflective member reflects the notification screen such that the subject facing the upright imaging stand visually recognizes the image.

The invention relates to a method for displaying an injection point for a medical instrument. The method comprises the following steps: Providing at least one marker on a surface of an object, with such marker exhibiting the property that it can be recorded both tomographically, in particular fluoroscopically, and also optically; Generating tomographic image data that can be used to reconstruct a fluoroscopic image of the at least one marker, located on the surface of the object, together with the object; Determining the insertion point for the medical instrument on the surface of the object relative to the at least one marker in the coordinate system of the tomographic image data; Generating visual image data that can be used to reconstruct a visual image of the at least one marker, located on the surface of the object, together with the object; Transforming the coordinate of the insertion point in the coordinate system of the tomographic image data into the coordinate system of the visual image data using the relative position of the insertion point to the at least one marker; and Displaying the insertion point for the medical instrument in real time in a view of the object.

A high contrast instrument, such as a radiopaque portion, can be captured and/or viewed in an image that is acquired with an imaging system, such as with a fluoroscopic imaging system. A statistical model can be used to assist in identifying a possible or probable location of a target. A user may move the instrument coil to the statistically probable location of the target to, for example, perform a procedure or carry out a task.

The present disclosure relates to systems, methods, computing devices, and storage media for medical examination. The medical examination system comprises: a breathing guiding apparatus configured to guide a breathing of a subject; an imaging device configured to scan the subject; and a controller coupled to the breathing guiding apparatus and configured to cause the breathing guiding apparatus to generate a breath guiding state for guiding the breathing of the subject.

An X-ray device includes a camera to image an object and output the image of the object, a display member using a touch screen to display the image of the object output from the camera, and an X-ray irradiation region of the object, an X-ray irradiation region controller to control a region of the object to which an X-ray is irradiated, and a control member to enable the irradiation region controller to control the region of the object to which an X-ray is irradiated according to the X-ray irradiation region, when the X-ray irradiation region is determined, based on the image of the object displayed in the display member.
