Dynamic table drive adjustment system for medical imaging system

Abstract

An apparatus and method for dynamically adjusting a table drive in a medical imaging system are described. An example apparatus includes a table, a table motor controller to move the table, and a detection system to detect a wall, accessory or patient parameter. The detection system includes at least one of a QR code reader, an RFID reader, an NFC reader, a LiDAR sensor, or a camera. A processing system calculates a table drive set point based on the detected accessory or patient parameter and adjusts the table drive and height to prevent collisions. The apparatus also includes a user interface configured to receive user input of room dimensions, which are a factor in determining at least one of an initial table drive set point and the new table drive set point, and a display device configured to provide a graphical depiction of a new maximum scannable range.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
