Abstract: A mechanism for adjusting the direction of one or more crossing electric fields that have been induced by a set of electrodes positioned on a patient, without necessitating movement of any of the electrodes. This is achieved through the use of one or more electrode patches, which effectively allow an electric field generator to control a position of a source/sink of an electric field, to thereby control a direction of the electric field.

Abstract: An acoustic sensing apparatus and method are disclosed for acoustically surveying the chest area of a subject, and in particular the rib cage. In use the apparatus is placed on the chest, and it includes an arrangement of one or more sound sensors for sensing acoustic signals received from inside the chest. Based on the signal intensities picked up at a plurality of different locations across the chest, the different locations are each classified by a controller as either rib-aligned or intercostal space-aligned. The controller is further adapted to identify one or more sound intensity hotspots (42) within the signal intensity distribution to locate one or more anatomical objects or regions of interest within the chest, such as the heart mitral valve, the heart tricuspid valve, heart aortic valve, and the pulmonary artery as key areas for an auscultation procedure.

Abstract: An image data processing method is for registering two four-dimensional image data sets, each representative of a time-series of three-dimensional image frames. The method comprises an initial pre-registration step in which 3D image frames of the two image data sets are rotated and translated (16) relative to one another so as to bring into alignment respective dominant motion vectors identified (14) for each, the dominant motion vector being a 3D motion vector representative of motion of an identified three-dimensional sub- region exhibiting maximal spatial displacement over course of the time series.

Abstract: A system (10) is for performing ECG measurements and comprises a probe (12) with an integrated one or more ECG electrodes (22) and an ultrasound sensing means (18), such as a transducer arrangement. The probe thus provides a mobile ECG electrode which can be sequentially moved between a set of different locations on the body for acquiring ECG measurements from different angles relative to the heart (i.e. different 'leads'). Positioning of the probe in each required location is guided by a position guidance function which uses ultrasound data acquired by the ultrasound sensing means to locate the probe (with reference to an ultrasound body atlas (28) or map), and uses a stored set of reference body locations to guide a user with guidance information as to how to move the probe to arrive at a next target electrode location. In examples, the user may be guided through a sequence of electrode locations, with ECG data acquired at each one, thereby sequentially building up a set of standard ECG lead measurements.

Abstract: An ablation catheter (100) for ablative treatment of ventricular tachycardia is provided. The catheter comprises a shaft (102) which is capable of being guided to the tissue to be ablated. An ablation element (104) for ablating tissue is mounted on the shaft. The catheter further comprises a plurality of ultrasound transducer arrays (106) for obtaining images of myocardial tissue. The arrays are positioned separately from each other around the circumference of the shaft. The catheter can adopt a folded configuration and a deployed configuration. In the folded configuration, the arrays are positioned against or close to the shaft thereby facilitating insertion and guiding of the catheter. In the deployed configuration, the arrays are more separated from the shaft than in the folded configuration. Further provided is a catheter arrangement including the ablation catheter, and a system for providing ablative treatment comprising the ablation catheter or catheter arrangement.

Abstract: The invention relates to an ultrasound visualization system (111, 311) for tracking a position of an interventional device (112) based on a stream of live ultrasound images (113). A processor (117) receives the stream of live ultrasound images (113), extracts a reference image (118) that includes an anatomical feature (119), extracts from the stream of live ultrasound (113) images a current image (120) that includes a portion of the anatomical feature (119) and a portion of the interventional device (112) at a current position (121), matches the portion of the anatomical feature in the current image 120 with the anatomical feature in the reference image (118) to determine a spatial relationship between the current position of the interventional device and the anatomical feature in the reference image (118), and indicates, in the reference image (118), the current position (121) of the interventional device (112), based on the determined spatial relationship.
