    Abstract: An apparatus provides remote assistance to a local operator of a medical imaging device disposed in a medical imaging device bay via a communication link from a remote location that is remote from the medical imaging device bay to the medical imaging device bay. The apparatus includes a workstation disposed at the remote location including at least one workstation display. At least one electronic processor is programmed to, over the course of a medical imaging examination performed using the medical imaging device: extract successive image frames from video or screen sharing of a controller display of the medical imaging device; screen-scrape information related to the medical imaging examination from the successive image frames over the course of the medical imaging examination; maintain status information on the medical imaging examination at least in part using the screen-scraped information; and output an alert perceptible at the remote location when the status information on the medical imaging examination satisfies an alert criterion.

    Abstract: A radiation therapy system (1) includes an ultrasound (US) imaging unit (2), a registration unit (30), an US motion unit (44), and a real-time dose computation engine (46). The ultrasound (US) imaging unit (2) generates a baseline and real-time US images (3) of a subject body (4) region including a target and one or more Organs At Risk (OARs). The registration unit (30) deformably registers a planning image (32) and the baseline US image (36), and maps (66) radiation absorptive properties of tissue in the planning image (32) to the baseline US image (36). The US motion unit (44) measures motion of the target volume and OARs during radiation therapy treatment based on the real-time US images. The real-time dose computation engine (46) computes a real-time time radiation dose delivered to the tissues based on the tissue radiation absorptive properties mapped from the baseline or planning images to the real-time 3D US images (3).

    Abstract: A system for providing navigational guidance to a sonographer acquiring images is disclosed. The system may provide haptic feedback to the sonographer. The haptic feedback may be provided through an ultrasonic probe or a separate device. Haptic feedback may include vibrations or other sensations provided to the sonographer. The system may analyze acquired images and determine the location of acquisition and compare it to a desired image and a location for obtaining the desired image. The system may calculate the location for obtaining the desired image based, at least in part, on the acquired image. The system may then provide the haptic feedback to guide the sonographer to move the ultrasonic probe to the location to acquire the desired image.

    Abstract: An ultrasound imaging system according to the present disclosure may include an ultrasound transducer assembly comprising a plurality of apertures that are configured to transmit signals toward and receive signals from a region of interest (ROI) of a subject, a tracking sensor disposed within the subject and configured to move within the ROI, the sensor being responsive to signals transmitted by the apertures, and at least one processor in communication with the ultrasound transducer assembly and the tracking sensor. The at least one processor may be configured to generate a first image of a first portion of the ROI from signals received from at least one activated aperture, identify a position of the tracking sensor using signal data from the tracking sensor that corresponds to at least one signal transmitted by the apertures, and generate a second image of a second portion of the ROI from signals received from at least one other aperture activated based on the identified position, wherein the second portion of the ROI is different from the first portion of the ROI.

    Abstract: An apparatus (10) provides remote assistance to a local operator of a medical imaging device (2) disposed in a medical imaging device bay (3) via a communication link (14) from a remote location (4) that is remote from the medical imaging device bay to the medical imaging device bay. The apparatus includes a workstation (12) disposed at the remote location including at least one workstation display (24). At least one electronic processor (20) is programmed to, over the course of a medical imaging examination performed using the medical imaging device: extract successive image frames from video (17) or screen sharing (18) of a controller display (24′) of the medical imaging device; screen-scrape information related to the medical imaging examination from the successive image frames over the course of the medical imaging examination; maintain status information on the medical imaging examination at least in part using the screen-scraped information; and output an alert (30) perceptible at the remote location when the status information on the medical imaging examination satisfies an alert criterion.
