Abstract: An imaging system is disclosed to include an elongate member supported by a plurality of wheels, where the elongate member is extendable in a horizontal axis such that a distance between two of the plurality of wheels is increased when the elongate member is extended in the horizontal axis; a trolley slidably secured to the elongate member, where the trolley includes a base portion and an upper portion. The base portion moves in the horizontal axis along the elongate member and the upper portion is rotatably mounted to the base portion, where the upper portion is configured to rotate at least 90 degrees relative to the base portion and elongate member.

Abstract: A surgical navigation and planning system is disclosed. The system may include at least one processor, and a storage medium storing programming instructions. The programming instructions may cause the processor to receive patient-specific vertebrae information include at least one image which may be acquired by an X-ray. The system may perform segmentation of objects in the at least one image and automatically select a set of objects for planning an optimal trajectory to a location proximal the vertebrae level. The system may determine boundary dimensions of an interbody implant, a first entry incision location and a first path for the interbody implant from the first entry incision location to the location proximal the vertebrae level. The system may calculate a plurality of clearance distances between the boundary dimensions and the set of objects. The set of objects may include the psoas muscle, Aorta, and/or Vena Cava.

Abstract: An image segmentation system and display is disclosed. The system may be operated or configured to generate a segmentation of a member from an image. The image and/or the segmentation may be displayed for viewing by a user.

Abstract: Disclosed is a system to plan and position an implant in a subject. The planned position may be based upon various features and structures identified in a group of subjects for a current subject. The implant may then be positioned in a selected position including a relative position and orientation of one or more electrodes on the implant which may be identified as an optimal position for the selected current subject.

Abstract: A method and system is disclosed for acquiring image data of a subject. The image data can be collected with an imaging system having a detector able to move relative to the subject. A contrast agent can be injected into the subject and image data can be acquired with the contrast agent in various phases of the subject. A volumetric model of multiple phases can be reconstructed selected reconstruction techniques.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method and system for navigating an instrument relative to a subject. A reference device can be associated with the subject. The reference device can be moved while maintaining or allowing registration with an image space.

Abstract: An electromagnetic device includes a jig and multiple wires. The jig includes a center member and coil-separating blocks. The coil-separating blocks protrude from the center member and are separated from each other to provide a coil channels. Each of the wires is wrapped on the jig, around the center member, and in one of the coil channels to form one of a multiple coils. Each of the coils is configured to connect to an electromagnetic navigation system and generate respective electromagnetic fields to be emitted relative to a subject.

Abstract: An imaging system is disclosed. The imaging system is operable to acquire and/or generate image data at positions relative to a subject. The imaging system includes a drive system configured to move the imaging system.

Abstract: Disclosed is a system and method for operating an imaging system. The imaging system may move or be moved to acquire image data of a subject at different positions relative to the subject. The image data may, thereafter, be combined to form a single image.

Abstract: Disclosed is a system for assisting in guiding and performing a procedure on a subject. The subject may be any appropriate subject such as inanimate object and/or an animate object. The guide and system may include various manipulable or movable members and may be registered to selected coordinate systems.

Abstract: A method and system is disclosed for analyzing and evaluating image data of a subject. The image data can be collected with an imaging system in a selected manner and/or motion. More than one projection may be combined to generate and create a selected view of the subject. The evaluation may be a location determination of a member positioned within the subject.

Abstract: A system and method to analyze image data. The image data may be used to assist in determine the presence of a feature in the image. The feature may include a bubble.

Abstract: A low-dose imaging method includes receiving a sparse image set of a portion of a patient's anatomy; up-sampling the sparse image set, in the sinogram domain and using a first neural network, to yield an up-sampled sinogram; generating, from the up-sampled sinogram, an initial reconstruction; and removing, from the initial reconstruction and using a second neural network, one or more artifacts in the initial reconstruction to yield a final output volume.

Abstract: Disclosed is a system to assist in a procedure. During the procedure an object may be moved relative to a subject, such as being positioned and/or placed within a subject. The system and related method may be used to assist in displaying and/or determining a pose of the object relative to a subject, such as rigid portions of a subject.

Abstract: Disclosed is a system for assisting in guiding and performing a procedure on a subject. The subject may be any appropriate subject such as inanimate object and/or an animate object. The guide and system may include various manipulable or movable members, such as robotic systems, and may be registered to selected coordinate systems.

Abstract: Disclosed is a system that includes pressure sensors to assist in monitoring pressure at a selected location. Pressure sensors may be applied to or incorporated into catheters and/or shunts positioned within a patient. A monitoring system may then receive signals from the pressure sensors to monitor pressure at the location over time.

Abstract: A system and method for a procedure that can be performed on an appropriate subject. A procedure may be planned, at least in part, prior to performing the procedure. An image may illustrate at least a portion of the planned procedure for confirmation and/or alteration of the planned procedure prior to performing the procedure.

Abstract: A system using images of a subject to assist in visualization of hidden portions of the subject is disclosed. The system may illustrate the images with a wearable display. The images may be displayed in an augmented or mixed reality manner.

Abstract: An imaging device for obtaining 360-degree images of an anatomical feature of a patient or of another object includes an open ring having a first end, a second end, and an axis, the open ring defining an outer arc and an inner arc; a support arm configured to support the open ring and to rotate the open ring about the axis; a track extending along the open ring; a source movably disposed on the track and operable to generate signals useful for imaging; and a detector movably disposed on the track, the detector operable to detect signals generated by the source. Movement of the source and detector along the track, coupled with rotation of the open ring about the axis, enables the source and detector to travel at least 360 degrees about the axis.
