Abstract: An intraluminal medical imaging interface device includes an arm assembly comprising one or more longitudinal members and one or more joints coupled to the one or more longitudinal members, and a head assembly coupled to a distal portion of the arm assembly and comprising a proximal portion coupled to the distal portion of the arm assembly and a distal portion. The distal portion of the head assembly includes a mechanical coupling and an electrical coupling configured to separably connect to an intraluminal imaging catheter and to transmit electrical signals between a console and the intraluminal imaging catheter. The arm assembly is configured to couple to a surface to maintain the head assembly at a first position and an orientation with respect to a patient without continued support by an operator. Associated devices, systems, and methods are also provided.

Abstract: The invention relates to a sensing device for sensing a fluid. The sensing device comprises an inlet port (20) for receiving the fluid (100) and a measurement chamber (25) for sensing the fluid (100). The sensing device further comprises a fluid channel (30) coupling the inlet port (20) and the measurement chamber (25) for transporting the fluid (100) from the inlet port (20) to the measurement chamber (25) and a fluid stop unit (50) for stopping and controllably releasing the flow of fluid between the inlet port (20) and the measurement chamber (25). This allows stopping the fluid before reaching the measurement chamber (25) and controllably releasing the fluid for allowing the fluid to flow into the measurement chamber (25), if the sensing device is ready for analyzing the fluid.
