MODULAR ULTRASOUND SYSTEM
An ultrasound system includes a display, an actuator, a user interface, and a processing circuit. The actuator is configured to control at least one of a position or an orientation of the display. The user interface is configured to receive a user input. The processing circuit is configured to cause the actuator to adjust the at least one of the position or orientation of the display based on the user input.
MULTI-SCREEN IMAGING SYSTEM FOR IMPROVED WORKFLOW
A tube arm assembly is rotatably connected to the floor mounted gantry of a breast imaging system. A support arm connected to the tube arm assembly can be independently rotated and positioned in a first angle, second angle, and a level position. A compression arm is configured to support a breast compression paddle and is linearly positionable on the support arm. Display screens and a sensor are disposed on an upper surface of the compression arm. Based on a signal received from the sensor, a controller is configured to change the read-ready orientation of each arm display.
MEDICAL USER INTERFACES AND RELATED METHODS OF USE
A medical system for use in a lithotripsy procedure may include a processor configured to receive input from a first imaging device, wherein the first imaging device may be configured to send image data representative of an image captured in a lumen of a kidney, bladder, or ureter to the processor. The processor may be configured to display the image on a display device coupled to the processor, and analyze the image to sense the presence of an object within the image. If an object was sensed within the image, the processor may analyze the image to estimate a size of the object, and display the estimate on the display device.
STATIONARY INTRAORAL TOMOSYNTHESIS IMAGING SYSTEMS, METHODS, AND COMPUTER READABLE MEDIA FOR THREE DIMENSIONAL DENTAL IMAGING
Intraoral three-dimensional (3D) tomosynthesis imaging systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media are used to generate one or more two-dimensional (2D) x-ray projection images and to reconstruct, using a computing platform, the one or more 2D x-ray projection images into one or more 3D images of an object, such as teeth of a patient, which can then be displayed on a monitor in order to enhance diagnostic accuracy of dental disease. The intraoral 3D tomosynthesis imaging system can include a wall-mountable control unit connected to one end of an articulating arm, the other end of which is connected to an x-ray source, which is configured to generate x-ray radiation that is acquired by an x-ray detector held at a desired position by an x-ray detector holder that is removably coupled to a collimator at an emission region of the x-ray source.
Radiation imaging system and method of controlling radiation imaging system
A radiation imaging system that is capable of controlling a radiation generating apparatus and a radiation detector based on communication between a first control application and a second control application is provided. The radiation imaging system comprises a holding unit configured to hold a plurality of processing requests transmitted from the second control application, a determination unit configured to determine whether the plurality of processing requests held in the holding unit are processing requests to be continuously executed, and a control right obtaining unit configured to obtain a control right to control an imaging control unit of the first control application that performs the control in order to continuously process the processing requests.
X-RAY APPARATUS AND METHOD OF SCANNING THE SAME
An X-ray apparatus includes a C-arm for adjusting a position of an X-ray source; a table on which an object is positioned; a data obtaining unit for obtaining position information of a target in the object; and a control unit for moving at least one of the C-arm and the table to allow tracking of the target based on the position information when capturing an X-ray image.
GUIDANCE DURING X-RAY IMAGING
The present invention relates to user guiding during X-ray imaging. In order to provide further guidance during X-ray imaging, a guiding device (10) for visual guidance during X-ray imaging is provided. The guiding device (10) comprises a camera arrangement (12), a display arrangement (14) and a housing structure (16). The housing structure comprises a housing (18) of an X-ray imaging system for housing an X-ray source or an X-ray detector. Further, the camera arrangement is configured to capture image data of a region of interest of a subject in front of the housing. Furthermore, the display arrangement is configured to present the captured image data as a live presentation of the region of interest. Still further, the camera arrangement is mounted to the housing on a first side (20) of the housing, and the display arrangement is mounted to the housing on a second side (22) of the housing, the second side being at least one of the group of lateral and opposite to the first side. Hence, the display arrangement is configured to provide a presentation comprising live images from the first side to a user located on the second side of the housing.
METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR A FIELD-OF-VIEW PREVIEW
Various methods and systems are provided for a set of devices for an imaging system. In one example, the set of devices includes a first device configured to obtain a first set of image data and a second device configured to obtain a second set of image data along at least one dimension. The first and second sets of data may be compiled to generate a field-of-view (FOV) preview.
