Abstract: An ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus has a scanning executing unit, a Doppler signal obtaining unit, a storage unit, a removing unit, a blood flow information obtaining unit, and a B-mode image generating unit. The scanning executing unit executes a first scanning that is iteratively performed by a predetermined period so as to obtain a B-mode image of an object and executes a second scanning that is iteratively performed a predetermined number of times by a first period between the first scanning so as to obtain a two-dimensional distribution of a blood flow information and that is iteratively performed by a second period while inserting the first scanning. The Doppler signal obtaining unit sequentially obtains a Doppler signal from a reflection signal obtained by the second scanning. The storage unit stores, for each raster direction, a Doppler signal string at unequal time intervals collected for the first period and the second period by the Doppler signal obtaining unit. The removing unit obtains a blood flow signal by reading the Doppler signal string at the unequal time intervals from the storage unit and removes a signal component with a small motion. The blood flow information obtaining unit obtains the blood flow information based on the blood flow signal. The B-mode image generating unit generates the B-mode image based on the reflection signal obtained by the first scanning.

Abstract: The present invention pertains to extension arm apparatuses (100, 700) that are adapted to support user devices (116) throughout a range of positions. A given apparatus may include one or more arms (106, 110) that position the user device remotely from a support position. An extension and retraction device (140, 162) such as a gas cylinder is received within each arm (106, 110), and provides a force to support the user device (116) as the arm is placed into a given position. A variable force clevis (142, 164) is connected to the extension/retraction device within the arm (106, 110). The variable force clevis (142, 164) is connected to a pair of locations in the arm as well. As the arm (106, 110) moves, for instance up or down, the variable force clevis (142, 164) rotates within the arm (106, 110) and dynamically adjusts the force provided by the extension/retraction device (140, 162).

Abstract: A human eye (22) is tracked between successively produced video image frames by consecutively applied eye location techniques. First, potential eye candidates within a local search window are identified using horizontal projection filtering, coupled with rudimentary appearance-based testing (62). The identified eye candidates are clustered and subjected to additional appearance-based testing to determine if one or more eye candidates should be accepted (64). If no eye candidates are accepted, a correlation/appearance technique is applied to the search window to identify the eye (70). If unsuccessful, the eye may be closed, and peripheral eye-related patches from the previous image frame are extracted and compared with the search window to identify the eye in the current frame (74). When comparable eye-related patches are identified in the search window for the current frame, the eye center is computed according to the mean of the eye periphery patches (150).

Abstract: A method and system for detection and remediation of sensor degradation in a monitoring device (160) is disclosed. The method comprises defining or selecting a monitor signal (164), and setting at least one monitor signal range bounded by one or more upper thresholds and one or more lower thresholds for detecting degradation and/or shut-off. At least one measured sensor output signal is selected from the monitoring device that is within the monitor signal range. A predicted proxy sensor signal is generated concurrently with the measured sensor output signal in real-time. The predicted proxy sensor signal is blended with the measured sensor output signal when shut-down is impending or close to being recovered from. The predicted proxy sensor signal is used in place of the measured sensor output signal when the monitor signal crosses an upper or lower shut-off threshold during a shut-off period. The measured sensor output signal can be used once again when the shut-off period ends. A 'sensor degraded' condition can be indicated when the monitor signal crosses an upper or lower degradation threshold.
