A device is provided for automatically assessing functional hemodynamic properties of a patient is provided, the device comprising: a housing; an ultrasound unit coupled to the housing and adapted for adducing ultrasonic waves into the patient at a vessel; a detector adapted to sense signals obtained as a result of adducing ultrasonic waves into the patient at the vessel and to record the; and a processor adapted for receiving the recorded signals as data and transforming the data for output at an interface. Other devices, systems, methods, and/or computer-readable media may be provided in relation to assessing functional hemodynamics of a patient.
Ultrasound imaging apparatus
The present disclosure relates to an ultrasonic imaging apparatus that has a tolerance for easy assembly and reduces shaking and noise by reducing the tolerance after assembly. The ultrasonic imaging apparatus includes a main body, a probe connected to the main body to irradiate and receive ultrasonic waves and to transmit the ultrasonic signals to the main body, a control panel configured to control the main body or the probe, and a moving device configured to connect the control panel and the main body and to move the control panel with respect to the main body in the upward and downward directions, wherein the moving device includes a housing fixed to the main body, a moving member configured to be movable with respect to the housing in the upward and downward directions, and a regulating bearing installed in the housing and configured to assist the upward and downward movement of the moving member by coming into rolling contact with the moving member and to regulate a gap with the moving member.
PORTABLE ULTRASONIC MEASURING DEVICE SUITABLE FOR MEASURING PELVIC TILT
An ultrasound measuring device includes: a support bearing two ultrasound probes movable relative to each other by slide link, each of the two probes being movable relative to the support by ball-joint link, wherein the probes are capable of simultaneously acquiring two ultrasound images. The device includes a first set of measuring elements to measure a relative positioning of the probes, including one travel sensor and at least two orientation sensors. The device includes a second set of measuring elements to measure a positioning of the device relative to a reference plane, including at least one orientation sensor. The device localizes at least one point of interest on each of the two ultrasound images, and processes data coming from the first and second measuring elements, delivering a relative spatial position of the points of interest located in the images.
ULTRASOUND DIAGNOSTIC APPARATUS
Provided is an ultrasound diagnostic apparatus including a touch panel monitor and a palm rest that supports a hand when a touch operation is performed on the touch panel monitor.
ANATOMICAL FEATURE EXTRACTION AND PRESENTATION USING AUGMENTED REALITY
An ultrasound probe captures real-time images of patient anatomy, which are analyzed by a processor to extract salient features pertaining to an anatomical structure. By tracking the location and orientation of the ultrasound probe, a model of that anatomical structure can be created. A visual indication of the position of segments of the anatomical structure can be presented holographically to a user of an augmented reality headset to provide information extracted from the ultrasound imaging, such as holographic display of a model of the anatomical structure at the approximate location of the visual field of the headset corresponding to the physical location of the actual anatomy being viewed by a user, without presenting the entirety of the ultrasound image to the user.
PORTABLE ULTRASONIC DIAGNOSTIC APPARATUS AND METHOD OF CONTROLLING THE SAME
A portable ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus and a method of controlling the same are provided, including a flexible display and a controller which changes a layout of an image displayed on the flexible display. An image necessary for diagnosing an object is appropriately disposed on a flexible display according to a situation, and thus, the user can intuitively determine an ultrasonic image.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR CONTEXTUAL IMAGING WORKFLOW
A method includes receiving a selection of an examination template including a hierarchical examination workflow and baseline configuration parameters corresponding to the examination template, wherein the examination template is associated with an anatomical area; automatically configuring an imaging system with the baseline configuration parameters from the examination template; capturing image data of a patient using the imaging system according to the hierarchical examination workflow; storing the image data on a storage system, such that the image data is associated with the anatomical area; displaying an anatomical model of a plurality of anatomical areas of the patient; and displaying thumbnails of the image data on respective areas of the anatomical model corresponding to anatomical areas of the patient where the image data was captured by the imaging system.
APPARATUS FOR CORRECTING POSTURE OF ULTRASOUND SCANNER FOR ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE-TYPE ULTRASOUND SELF-DIAGNOSIS USING AUGMENTED REALITY GLASSES, AND REMOTE MEDICAL DIAGNOSIS METHOD USING SAME
An apparatus for correcting a posture of an ultrasound scanner for artificial intelligence-type ultrasound self-diagnosis, includes an ultrasound scanner including an ultrasound probe configured to acquire and transmit an ultrasound image of a patient; a mapper configured to acquire a body map of the patient in which a plurality of virtual interested organs is arranged on a body image; a scanner navigator configured to calculate current position coordinates of the ultrasound scanner on the body map and the ultrasound image; augmented reality glasses configured to display the ultrasound image and a virtual object image; and a processor configured to determine whether the patient has a disease and a risk degree of the disease based on an artificial neural network result of an implemented deep learning neural network trained on ultrasound training images provided with the ultrasound image.
FLOATING MECHANISM AND ULTRASONIC DIAGNOSTIC APPARATUS
A floating mechanism (300) and an ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus. The floating mechanism (300) and the ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus can implement the direct superposition of lifting movements and rotational movements, so that the floating mechanism (300) can move in more directions. In addition, a lifting structure and a rotation structure in the floating mechanism (300) are integrally linked in design, accordingly, the link performance is good, the response is fast, the occupied space is small, and the operation range is great.
