Abstract: The present invention relates a method and apparatus for setting a test configuration. A test device for testing a device under test is identified, and the measurement interfaces of the test device are assigned to appropriate measurement points of the device under test. The configuration of the test scenario is established by generating a representation of the test device and the connections between the interface of the test device and the related measurement points.

Abstract: A method is for compression of breast tissue arranged between a paddle and a stage of a compression system for a mammography examination. The method includes generating a first compression of the breast tissue by building up a reference compression force by adjusting the paddle relative to the stage; comparing the first compression with a target compression; and adjusting the first compression to the target compression, the adjusting including exertion of a manual force on the paddle.

Abstract: A compression unit is for a mammography system. In an embodiment, the compression unit includes an essentially U-shaped accommodating unit including two opposing fastening elements, connected via an adjustable spacer element arranged between the two opposing fastening elements, a distance between the two opposing fastening elements being adjustable. In an embodiment, the compression unit further includes a compression element, fastenable and exchangeable in the accommodating unit.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a wheel suspension of a device having an electrical drive of a wheel for supporting a manual movement impulse. The wheel suspension includes a connector piece movably or bendably arranged between a support element or support frame connected to the device and between an interior stator of an electrical drive, wherein the connector piece is held in a starting position due to the gravity of the device, without other influencing forces. The wheel suspension also includes at least one sensor that detects a deflection of the connector piece, and a control device designed such that the control device together with the electrical drive counteracts a deflection or bending of the connector piece.

Abstract: A guide device for at least one line, such as an electric line of a C-arm, has a rotatable first cylinder with a first cylindrical surface and a static second cylinder, adjoining the first cylinder in the axial direction and having a second cylindrical surface. A first guide element for guiding the line on the first and/or the second cylindrical surface, is disposed coaxially with respect to the first and the second cylinder and it is movable relative to the first and the second cylinder. The line can be wound up on the first and/or the second cylindrical surface or can be unwound therefrom depending on the movement of the first cylinder.

Abstract: The invention relates to a mobile C-arm system (C1), at least comprising at least three wheels, at least two wheels each having an electric motor, wherein the electric motor has a stator (S) and a rotor (R), the stator (S) being connected to a wheel suspension (T) of the wheel and the rotor (R) being surrounded peripherally by a running wheel (L).

Abstract: A bearing configuration for the rotational mounting of a component provided for rotational movement includes a positionally fixed sleeve on which the component is rotatably mounted by one or more bearing elements or a plain-bearing. A pressure element is provided in the interior of the sleeve for readily expanding the sleeve and placing the sleeve in frictional contact with the component which is spaced apart from the sleeve by an air gap. A medical examination device having the bearing configuration is also provided.

Abstract: A C-arm x-ray device includes a C-arm and bearing rollers, on which the C-arm is moveably mounted. At least one drive unit drives or brakes the C-arm with the bearing rollers. The at least one drive unit is actively connected to the bearing rollers.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method, system, and/or computer program product monitors stored procedures that are executed in a database management system. A determination is made, for a stored procedure that is executed in a database management system, of an identification of the stored procedure and event data related to the stored procedure. The event data includes when the stored procedure began and ended executing, an SQL identifier for an SQL statement in the stored procedure, and a counter of how many times the SQL statement executed. The database management system provides values of parameters used when executing the SQL statement. These values are then correlated with the count of how many times the SQL statement executed.

Abstract: The present embodiments relate to a wheeled C-arm support device for a mobile C-arm X-ray machine and an associated method for swiveling the C-arm support device. The C-arm support device includes two steerable front wheels, two freely movable rear wheels and a steering unit that may steer the two steerable front wheels simultaneously inward by the same angle. A line of intersection of surfaces formed by outer sides of the two steerable front wheels form an imaginary swivel axis of the C-arm support device.

Abstract: An X-ray device including a C-arm movably guided on a mount is provided. A radiation source and a radiation detector are arranged on the C-arm. The radiation source and the radiation detector are connected to the C-arm by cables fed in from outside, the cables being arranged on a cable clamp that may be moved at least in segments along the C-arm.

Abstract: A system includes at least one device that includes at least one device component. For a defined movement of the at least one device component, a movement axis and/or a movement direction may be selected by a selection element and may be identified by an activatable lighting element. The identified movement axis and/or the identified movement direction may be released by at least one actuation element, so that a desired movement of the at least one device component may be performed.
