Abstract: A hospital bed may include a bed frame, a first bed board and an auxiliary component. The first bed board is connected to the bed frame. The auxiliary component may include a connecting frame, a first moving and supporting mechanism and a second bed board. The connecting frame is detachably connected to the first bed board. The first moving and supporting mechanism is connected to the connecting frame. The second bed board is connected to the first moving and supporting mechanism and can carry an object along the bearing direction. The second bed board is arranged on one side of the first bed board along the bearing direction. The first moving and supporting mechanism can drive the second bed board to move relative to the first bed board along an adjustment direction, where the adjustment direction is perpendicular to the bearing direction.

Abstract: In a method and apparatus for magnetic resonance imaging preview and establishing an MR model, an MRI scanner is controlled so as to execute an MR model scan sequence to perform an MRI scan of a designated patient, to obtain an MR model of the patient. One type of scan sequence is sequentially selected from all types of scan sequence supported by the MRI device, and one parameter set is sequentially selected from at least one parameter set supported by this type of scan sequence. The selected sequence and the selected parameter set are used to subject the MR model to a virtual MRI scan, to obtain an MR preview image corresponding to the selected sequence and the selected parameter set for the sequence C. This is repeated for all types of scan sequence supported by the MRI scanner and all parameter sets supported by each type of scan sequence. An MR model of a patient can thereby be established, and MR images of the patient to be previewed quickly, before an MRI scan of the patient is actually begun.

Abstract: In a method and MR scanning apparatus for compensating for gradient delay in the MR scanning sequence, a current gradient amplitude of the MR scanning sequence is determined. Based on the current gradient amplitude and a mapping between gradient delay and gradient amplitude, a current gradient delay corresponding to the current gradient amplitude is determined. The gradient delay in the MR scanning sequence is compensated according to the current gradient delay.

Abstract: The present utility model provides a locating device for a magnetic resonance system comprising an image sensor, an image display for displaying images acquired by the abovementioned image sensor, and a locator, which locator has at least one locating mark. There is no need for the abovementioned locating device for a magnetic resonance system to use a laser for locating and, therefore, the case where an operator is hurt by the laser will not occur. On the other hand, due to the use of the image sensor and the image display, the remote control of adjustment conditions can be accomplished, therefore there is no need to repeatedly enter into a magnetic resonance examination room to carry out operations during the adjustment process, which saves time and costs for the adjustments.
