Abstract
A system for wirelessly communicating data across a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) observation window, comprising a pair of Light Fidelity (LiFi) modules with a case, wherein each case comprises a window-interfacing-side that is placeable on opposing sides of the observation window, wherein each case further comprises a LiFi transmitter and a LiFi receiver for transmission of control instructions and return information across the observation window.
Claims20
A system for wirelessly communicating data across a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) observation window, comprising:
- a pair of Light Fidelity (LiFi) modules;
- wherein each of said modules further comprises a LiFi transmitter and a LiFi receiver housed in a case;
- said LiFi transmitters and LiFi receivers are each part of one or more electrical circuits for carrying out functions comprising acquisition of inputs and signal processing of control instructions and return information;
- wherein an uplink data transmission pipeline comprises at least one of said electrical circuits used to acquire and signal process control instructions from an MRI control room on one side of the observation window to an MRI exam room on the opposite side of the observation window;
- wherein an MRI control room comprises any location outside of said MRI exam room;
- wherein a downlink data transmission pipeline comprises at least one of said electrical circuits used to acquire and signal process return information from said MRI exam room to said MRI control room;
- wherein each of said cases comprises a window-interfacing-side that is placeable on the observation window with or without a gasket in between said window-interfacing-side and said observation window;
- wherein at least one of said modules, referred to as a control room module, is placeable on the side of said observation window facing the MRI control room;
- wherein at least one of said modules, referred to as an exam room module, is placeable on the side of said observation window facing the MRI exam room.
