Abstract: A user guidance system (SYS) and related method. The system comprises an interface (IN) for receiving a specification of a medical protocol for a given patient, the specification defining a sequence of medical action points. A synthesizer (S) of the system is configured to synthesize a media sequence in accordance with the sequence of medical action points, to obtain a synthesized media sequence for the said patient, the media sequence configurable to guide the patient in a medical procedure, based on the protocol. The media sequence may be used to support imaging protocols to encourage patient compliance, and hence better imaging for example.

Abstract: The present invention relates to hydrodynamic bearings, X-ray tubes, X-ray systems, and a method of manufacturing a hydrodynamic bearing for an X-ray tube. The rotor of a hydrodynamic bearing is supported, in steady-state operation, by the pressure of lubricant which is pumped through grooves in the rotor. When the rotor is speeding up or slowing down, the pumping force will not be sufficient to lift the rotor clear of a stationary bushing, and damage, caused by direct contact of the metal surfaces of the bearing, can occur. Providing special coatings on the bearing surfaces can ameliorate this effect.

Abstract: An imaging detector module (112) of an imaging system includes at least one detector pixel (114) and self-diagnosing circuitry (116). The self-diagnosing circuitry includes a microprocessor (202) and at least measurement device (210). The micro processor controls the at least measurement device to measure at least one parameter of the at least one detector pixel, wherein a value of the at least one parameter is indicative of a health state of the imaging system. A method includes employing self-diagnosing circuitry embedded in an imaging detector module to measure at least one parameter of at least one detector pixel of the imaging detector module. A value of the at least one parameter is indicative of a health state of the imaging detector. The method further includes generating, with the self diagnosing circuitry, a signal indicating a health state of the imaging detector module based on the measured at least one parameter.

Abstract: A method for establishing and/or changing a communication path between a subject and a radiation medical device (20, 30) in real time during operation of the radiation medical device (20:30). The method comprises providing, by a data processing unit, a set of communication methods between the subject and the radiation medical device, wherein the communication methods of the set of communication methods differ from each other in terms of the used technology (S 10): transmitting, by the data processing unit, at least one test signal to the subject via at least one communication method of the set of communication methods (S20); receiving, by the data processing unit, at least one response signal from the subject in response to the test signal (S30): assessing, by the data processing unit, the at least one response signal by analyzing it and/or the test signal for one or more response indicators indicating whether the subject is responding to the test signal, and to derive an assessing result therefrom (S40): in case the assessing result is positive: selecting, by the data processing unit, the at least one communication method of the set of communication methods for establishing the communication path (S50); in case the assessing result is negative: transmitting, by the data processing unit, at least one further test signal to the subject via at least one further communication method of the set of communication methods, receiving, by the data processing unit, at least one further response signal from the subject in response to the at least one further test signal, assessing, by the data processing unit, the at least one further response signal by analyzing it and/or the test signal for one or more response indicators indicating whether the subject is responding to the test signal, and to derive a further assessing result therefrom, in case the further assessing result is positive, selecting the at least one further communication method of the set of communication methods for establishing the communication path (S60).

Abstract: This disclosure provides a system (100) for determining patient (P) movement for a medical imaging system, comprising at least one marker (110), and at least one data processing unit (120), wherein the marker (110) is a solid configured to be swallowed by the patient (P). The marker (110) comprises a landmark forming component (111) configured to be detectable within the patient during a medical imaging procedure to determine the movement of the patient. The at least one data processing unit (120) is configured to obtain patient information data and/or medical imaging information data at least indicative for a type of medical imaging procedure intended for the patient. The at least one data processing unit (120) utilizes a computational model to estimate, based on one or more of the patient information data, the medical imaging information data and a configuration of the at least one marker, a position and/or distribution of the at least one marker inside the patient to a certain time and/or over a period of time after swallowing by the patient (P). The data processing unit (120) is configured to generate, based on the estimation of a distribution of the at least one marker, control data for timely controlling the medical imaging procedure.

Abstract: An X-ray source for emitting an X-ray beam is proposed. The X-ray source comprises an anode and an emitter arrangement comprising a cathode for emitting an electron beam towards the anode and an electron optics for focusing the electron beam at a focal spot on the anode. The X-ray source further comprises a controller configured to determine a switching action of the emitter arrangement and to actuate the emitter arrangement to perform the switching action, the switching action being associated with a change of at least one of a position of the focal spot on the anode, a size of the focal spot, and a shape of the focal spot. The controller is further configured to predict before the switching action is performed, based on the determined switching action, the size and the shape of the focal spot expected after the switching action. Further, the controller is configured to actuate the electron optics to compensate for a change of the size and the shape of the focal spot induced by the switching action.
