Abstract
A medical image diagnostic apparatus according to an embodiment includes a table-top, a measurement unit, and processing circuitry. The table-top places thereon a subject. The measurement unit outputs a measurement signal corresponding to weight of the subject placed on the table-top. The processing circuitry estimates the weight of the subject placed on the table-top, based on the measurement signal and arrangement information on arrangement of the measurement unit.
Claims11
A medical image diagnostic apparatus, comprising:
- a table-top configured to place thereon a subject;
- a plurality of measurement units that outputs a set of first measurement signals corresponding to weight of the subject placed on the table-top;
- and
- processing circuitry configured to
- acquire a first measurement mode indicating a mode for measuring the weight of the subject placed on the table-top;
- and
- estimate the weight of the subject placed on the table-top by acquiring from a memory a weight value corresponding to the first measurement mode and the set of the respective first measurement signals of the plurality of measurement units, the memory storing second measurement modes each indicating a mode for measuring weight of a subject, sets of respective second measurement signals of the plurality of measurement units, and weight values associated with each other.
A table, comprising:
- a table-top configured to place thereon a subject;
- a plurality of measurement units that outputs a set of first measurement signals corresponding to weight of the subject placed on the table-top;
- and
- processing circuitry configured to
- acquire a first measurement mode indicating a mode for measuring the weight of the subject placed on the table-top;
- and
- estimate the weight of the subject placed on the table-top by acquiring from a memory a weight value corresponding to the first measurement mode and the set of the respective first measurement signals of the plurality of measurement units, the memory storing second measurement modes each indicating a mode for measuring weight of a subject, sets of respective second measurement signals of the plurality of measurement units, and weight values associated with each other.
A control method of a medical image diagnostic apparatus that includes a table-top on which a subject is placed, and a plurality of measurement units that outputs a set of first measurement signals corresponding to weight of the subject placed on the table-top, the control method comprising:
- acquiring a first measurement mode indicating a mode for measuring the weight of the subject placed on the table-top;
- and
- estimating the weight of the subject placed on the table-top by acquiring from a memory a weight value corresponding to the first measurement mode and the set of the respective first measurement signals of the plurality of measurement units, the memory storing second measurement modes each indicating a mode for measuring weight of a subject, sets of respective second measurement signals of the plurality of measurement units, and weight values associated with each other.
