Abstract
A patient bearing system and a robotic system are disclosed. The patient bearing system includes a patient bearing and at least one ultrasound transducer with an ultrasound head at least partly located in the patient bearing and being spatially located to transmit ultrasound signals to a target space. The ultrasound head is at least partly located in the patient bearing. The robotic system includes a patient bearing system and a robot configured for at least partly operate the system and the computer system is programmed for performing image acquisitions and analysis of a body part at least partly located in target space.

A patient bearing system comprising:
- a patient bearing configured to support at least a body part of a patient and including a bearing surface configured to be in physical contact with a body surface of the body part;
- at least one ultrasound transducer at least partly located in the patient bearing and configured to transmit ultrasound signals to a target space comprising a region adjacent to the bearing surface;
- and
- a computer system in data communication with the at least one ultrasound transducer, the computer system configured to generate location data characterizing a location of the at least one ultrasound transducer.
A patient bearing, comprising:
- a bearing surface configured to be in physical contact with a body surface of a body part of a patient;
- and
- at least one ultrasound transducer disposed at the bearing surface and configured to transmit an ultrasound signal to a target space adjacent to the bearing surface.
