Abstract: System (10) for determining a position of an interventional device (11) respective an image plane (12) defined by an ultrasound imaging probe (13). The position is determined based on ultrasound signals transmitted between the ultrasound imaging probe (13) and an ultrasound transducer (15) attached to the interventional device (11). An image reconstruction unit (IRU) provides a reconstructed ultrasound image (RUI). A position determination unit (PDU) computes a position (LAP TOFSmax, θIPA ) of the ultrasound transducer (15) respective the image plane (12). The position determination unit (PDU) indicates the computed position (LAP TOFSmax, θIPA ) in the reconstructed ultrasound image (RUI). The position determination unit (PDU) suppresses the indication of the computed position (LAP TOFSmax, θIPA ) under specified conditions relating to the computed position (LAP TOFSmax, θIPA ) and the ultrasound signals.

Abstract: The invention provides an ultrasound patch (710) comprising a first array group (720) comprising a primary transducer array (730) having a first orientation and a second array group (740) comprising at least two secondary transducer arrays (750) each having an orientation different from the first orientation. The second array group is arranged such that the at least two secondary transducer arrays are located at either side of the primary transducer array. The first array group or the second array group may be used to capture preliminary ultrasound data for positioning the ultrasound patch. The primary transducer array and the at least two secondary transducer arrays may comprise CMUTs, and the ultrasound patch may comprise a flip chip connection. Also disclosed are a system and a method for positioning the ultrasound patch on a surface of a subject.

Abstract: A patch sensor adapted to process echo information to generate a first type of medical data and/or a second, different type of medical data using a respective processing pathway. A communications module of the patch sensor is adapted to be switchable between a first mode, in which only the first type of medical data is transmitted to a medical device, and a second mode, in which at least the second type of medical data is transmitted to the 5 medical device. The first type of medical data occupies a smaller bandwidth (during transmittal) than the second type of medical data.

Abstract: A system for determining a position of an interventional device (11) respective an imaging field (B 1..k ) corresponding to a type (T 1..n ) of a beamforming ultrasound imaging probe (13) currently connected to an ultrasound imaging system (14). The position is determined based on ultrasound signals transmitted between the beamforming ultrasound imaging probe (13) and an ultrasound transducer (15) attached to the interventional device (11). An image reconstruction unit (IRU) provides a reconstructed ultrasound image (RUI) corresponding to the imaging field (B 1..k ). A position determination unit (PDU) receives input indicative of the type (T 1..n ) of the beamforming ultrasound imaging probe (13) currently connected to the ultrasound imaging system (14). The position determination unit (PDU) also computes a position (LAP TOFSmax, θIPA ) of the ultrasound transducer (15) respective the imaging field (B 1..k ). Computing the position (LAP TOFSmax, θIPA ) comprises selecting from a group of beam sequences corresponding to a plurality of imaging probe types (T 1..n ) a beam sequence corresponding to the type (T 1..n ) of the beamforming ultrasound imaging probe (13) currently connected to the ultrasound imaging system (14) and assigning detected ultrasound signals to the selected beam sequence.

Abstract: An ultrasound controller unit (22) for controlling an ultrasound transducer unit (24) in acquiring ultrasound data for the purpose of deriving one or more physiological parameter measurements. The controller is adapted to control weighting coefficients applied to transmit and receive signals of each of a plurality of transducer elements (26) of the transducer unit. The controller is adapted to detect any artifact in received data affecting (e.g. obscuring) the output path of one or more of the transducers, and to identify the affected transducer elements. The weighting coefficients of the non-affected transducer elements are then adjusted so as to minimize an estimated noise component in the parameter measurement, if derived using only the non-affected transducer elements. Measurements of the one or more parameters are then derived by collecting data from the non-affected transducers only, these being configured with the optimized weighting coefficients.
