Abstract
A medical imaging system may include an imaging device; an optical head coupled to the imaging device, the optical head comprising a plurality of optical sensors; and a control unit in communication with the optical head. The control unit may be configured to: receive data from the plurality of optical sensors, determine a subset of optical sensors from the plurality of optical sensors for viewing one or more visible targets based on the received data from the plurality of optical sensors, and instruct the optical head to transmit images from the subset of optical sensors.
Claims22
A medical imaging system comprising:
- an imaging device;
- an optical head coupled to the imaging device, the optical head comprising a plurality of optical sensors;
- and
- a control unit in communication with the optical head, the control unit configured to:
- receive data from the plurality of optical sensors,
- determine a subset of optical sensors from the plurality of optical sensors for viewing one or more visible targets based on the received data from the plurality of optical sensors, and
- instruct the optical head to transmit images from the subset of optical sensors.
An optical tracking device comprising:
- a housing configured to be attachable to an ultrasound probe;
- a printed circuit board (PCB) housed in the housing;
- and
- a plurality of optical sensors coupled to the PCB, the plurality of optical sensors configured to transmit a plurality of images to a control unit, the plurality of optical sensors configured to receive instructions from the control unit, the instructions including configuration data to adjust bandwidth for communication between the plurality of optical sensors and the controller.
An imaging device comprising:
- an imaging probe comprising an imaging sensor and a handle;
- an optical head assembly configured to be attachable and detachable to the handle of the imaging probe;
- and
- a plurality of optical sensors coupled to the optical head assembly, wherein the plurality of optical sensors are in communication with a control unit, the control unit configured to:
- receive image data from the plurality of optical sensors,
- determine a subset of optical sensors from the plurality of optical sensors for viewing one or more visible targets, and
- transmit instructions including configuration data to adjust bandwidth for communication between the plurality of optical sensors and the controller.
