Method of hub communication, processing, display, and cloud analytics
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.
Medical image processing apparatus and medical observation system
A medical image processing apparatus includes an image processor configured to: receive a plurality of first image data captured at different times and generated by illumination of light in a first wavelength band in sequence; receive a plurality of second image data captured at different times and generated by illumination of light in a second wavelength band different from the first wavelength band in sequence; generate first and second images based on the received first and second image data, respectively; and output the generated first image and second image to a display in chronological order of the first and second images and in accordance with a preset display pattern of the first and second images.
Method for adjusting an exposure of an endoscope
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.
Control method, control system, electronic device and readable storage medium for capsule endoscope
The present invention discloses a control method, system, electronic device and readable storage medium for a capsule endoscope. The method includes: providing a working apparatus, comprising a capsule endoscope, and an external data recorder for cooperating with and controlling the capsule endoscope; monitoring the received ambient power by the external data recorder before wireless transmission of the capsule endoscope or during an intermittence between two transmissions, and/or monitoring the output power of the capsule endoscope by the external data recorder as data is transmitted during wireless transmission; adjusting the operating state of the working apparatus according to the ambient power and/or output power. The present invention can monitor the power during the dormant period before image interaction and/or in the process of image interaction, thus adjust the operating state of the capsule endoscope in real time, which can improve the wireless communication performance and operating time of the capsule endoscope.
REMOVABLE ATTACHMENT SYSTEM ON A MAST FOR A NON-IMPLANTABLE MEDICAL DEVICE
The disclosure relates to a system for attaching a medical device on a mast, the attachment system including a body equipped with the medical device and from which protrude face-to-face two jaws together delimiting an open engagement housing for the mast ending, at the level of the body, in a bottom which gradually decreases along a frustoconical portion to adapt to masts of different diameters, both jaws being externally threaded by a thread including a tapped ring and a tubular support skirt for the jaws, this tubular skirt extending coaxially inside the tapped ring to allow the engagement of the jaws between the tapped ring and the tubular skirt and the screwing of the tapped ring on these jaws.
LENS UNIT
A lens unit includes: a lens including a lens part formed at the center of the lens, and a flange part that extends radially outward from the periphery of the lens part and includes a rear end surface on its rear side; a transparent spacer that is disposed behind the lens in the optical axis direction and used for focusing the lens part, the spacer including a front end surface that opposes to the rear of the lens, a spaced-apart part that opposes to the lens part and is spaced apart rearward in the optical axis direction from the lens part, and a bonded peripheral part that extends radially outward from the periphery of the spaced-apart part; and an adhesive that is disposed between the rear end surface of the flange part and the bonded peripheral part and bonds the lens and the spacer.
