Abstract:
An integral laser imaging and treatment apparatus, and associated systems and methods that allow a physician (e.g., a surgeon) to perform laser surgical procedures on an eye structure or a body surface with an integral laser imaging and treatment apparatus disposed at a first (i.e. local) location from a control system disposed at a second (i.e. remote) location, e.g., a physician's office. In some embodiments, communication between the integral laser imaging and treatment apparatus and control system is achieved via the Internet®. Also, in some embodiments, the laser imaging and treatment apparatus includes a dynamic imaging system that verifies the identity of a patient, and is capable of being used for other important applications, such as tracking and analyzing trends in a disease process. Further, in some embodiments, the laser imaging and treatment apparatus determines the geographical location of the local laser generation unit of the system using GPS.

Claim (Index 1):
A remote laser treatment system with dynamic imaging, comprising:\n a local control system disposed at a first location and a central control system disposed at a remote site, said remote site being at a second location, said local control system being operatively coupled to said central control system by means of a computer network; said local control system including a laser generation device, a first computing device with a first processor, a local control module, and a dynamic imaging system; said laser generation device including a treatment laser configured to generate and transmit a treatment laser beam to a treatment location on or in said patient; said central control system including a second computing device with a second processor and a remote control module; said remote control module being configured to perform a laser treatment procedure on said treatment location on or in said patient in an actual control mode in which said treatment laser is configured to transmit said treatment laser beam to said treatment location so as to surgically alter the body of said patient in said treatment location; and said dynamic imaging system including an imaging device operatively coupled to said first computing device, said imaging device configured to capture images of a body portion of said patient over a predetermined duration of time so that a displacement of said body portion of said patient is capable of being tracked during said predetermined duration of time, said first computing device being programmed to determine said displacement of said body portion of said patient over said predetermined duration of time using said captured images, and to compare said displacement of said body portion of said patient over said predetermined duration of time to a reference displacement of said body portion of said patient acquired prior to said displacement so that dynamic changes in said body portion of said patient are capable of being assessed for the purpose of identifying said patient or evaluating physiological changes in said body portion.
