Abstract: An ultrasonic diagnostic imaging system performs elastography using mechanically generated vibrations from a vibration assembly attached to an ultrasound probe. An attachment member attaches the vibration assembly to the probe. A vibration motor is mounted in a motor mount and applies vibration energy to the body in which shear waves are to be measured, at a location adjacent to the probe. The vibration motor mount is coupled to the attachment member by a vibration isolation element such as a spring, rubber band, or elastic compound which isolates the probe from deleterious vibration energy from the vibration motor.

Abstract: A vibration actuator (10) for mechanically generating a shear wave comprises a plurality of n rotational vibrators (141, 142, 143), an accelerometer (16), and a controller (18). The plurality of n rotational vibrators enables generation of a vibration vector with desired directional behavior selected from a plurality of vibration vectors (34, 36, 38) of different directional behaviors. Each rotational vibrator comprises an independently controllable motor (20) having a drive shaft (22) and an eccentric disk (24). The accelerometer is arranged to detect a vibration vector generated by at least two of the plurality of n rotational vibrators. The controller selectively controls a first set of two rotational vibrators to rotate respective eccentric disks in a first coordinated manner to produce a first vibration vector, and a second set of two rotational vibrators to rotate respective eccentric disks in a second coordinated manner to produce a second vibration vector, with different respective directional behaviors.

Abstract: An ultrasound imaging system includes an a processor circuit that stores, in a memory in communication with the processor circuit, a target parameter representative of a target anatomical scan window. The processor circuit receives a first ultrasound image acquired by a first ultrasound probe with a first anatomical scan window during a first acquisition period. The processor circuit determines a first parameter representative of the first anatomical scan window. The processor circuit retrieves the target parameter from the memory. The processor circuit compares the target parameter and the first parameter. The processor circuit outputs a visual representation of the comparison to a display in communication with the processor circuit.

Abstract: Systems and methods for calculating hepato-renal index (HRI) values from radiofrequency (RF) data are disclosed herein. The RF data may include fundamental frequency components, harmonic frequency components, or a combination thereof. Signal intensities within regions of interest may be calculated from the RF data. The signal intensities may be averaged to arrive at an average signal intensity value for each region of interest. In some examples, some of the highest and/or lowest signal intensity values may be removed prior to averaging. The ratio of the average signal intensities from the different regions of interest may be then be taken to arrive at the HRI values.

Abstract: The present disclosure describes systems configured to recognize indicators of a medical condition within a diagnostic image and predict the progression of the medical condition based on the recognized indicators. The systems can include neural networks trained to extract disease features from diagnostic images and neural networks configured to model the progression of such features at future time points selectable by a user. Modeling the progression may involve factoring in various treatment options and patient-specific information. The predicted outcomes can be displayed on a user interface customized to specific representations of the predicted outcomes generated by one or more of the underlying neural networks. Representations of the predicted outcomes include synthesized future images, probabilities of clinical outcomes, and/or descriptors of disease features that may be likely to develop over time.
