Abstract: A system for creating 3D ultrasound case volumes from 2D scans and aligning the ultrasound case volumes with a virtual representation of a body to create an adapted virtual body that is scaled and accurately reflects the morphology of a particular patient. The system improves a radiologist's or treating physician's ability to examine and interact with a patient's complete ultrasound case volume independent of the patient, the type of ultrasound machine used to acquire the original data, and the original scanning session.

Abstract: An ultrasound training system having a data capture module, a digital asset management module, a validation module, didactic content, a media asset production module, an integration layer, an internet-based portal, a software client, and a peripheral probe. The combination of the disclosed elements creates a system that enables the creation and delivery of high-quality ultrasound education and training in a low-cost, widely deployable, and scalable manner, with a facilitated method for processing orders and financial transactions between customers and content providers.

Abstract: The present invention teaches a medical procedure training system based on a PC platform that provides multimodal education within a virtual environment. The system integrates digital video, three-dimensional modeling, and force-feedback devices for the purpose of training medical professionals medical procedures.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a system and method for providing mobile handheld (e.g., mobile phones, handheld computers) device users the ability to access personalized health information from a variety of locations. A computerized mobile handheld device, customized software programming, and broadband transmission of information using the Internet and wireless networks is provided. System users are provided access to highly relevant healthcare topics for their personal review with minimal searching effort. The user iteratively responds to a series of prompts by clicking, using voice recognition, or telemetric data input technology to register his or her response. The user's responses are linked to a series of health information topics, which appear on the user interface. This series of healthcare topics provide the user information on the respective health issue. The series of healthcare topics are rearranged in order of most relevant to least relevant based on the user's data inputs.
