Abstract: Embodiments herein relate to distributed interactive medical visualization systems including user interface features and related methods. In an embodiment, a distributed interactive medical visualization system is included. The system can include a first video processing circuit, a first central processing circuit, a first communications circuit, and a first user-interface generated by the first video processing circuit. The first user interface can include a three-dimensional model of at least a portion of a subject's anatomy from a first perspective, the first perspective configured to be controlled by a first user. One or more graphical representations of one or more other users who are viewing the same three-dimensional model can also be included, wherein each of the one or more graphical representations identify individual users amongst the one or more other users. Other embodiments are also included herein.

Abstract: Embodiments herein relate to distributed interactive medical visualization systems with primary/secondary interaction features and related methods. In an embodiment, a distributed interactive medical visualization system is included. The system can include a first video processing circuit and a first central processing circuit in communication with the first video processing circuit. The system can also include a first communications circuit. The system can also include a primary user interface generated by the first video processing circuit. The primary user interface can include a three-dimensional model of at least a portion of a subject's anatomy from a first perspective, the first perspective configured to be controlled by a primary user. The primary user interface can include a command interface object, wherein engagement can cause a secondary user interface to begin mirroring the perspective of the primary user on the three-dimensional model of the subject's anatomy.

Abstract: Devices, systems, and methods for implanting and testing multi-conductor electrical leads are disclosed. An illustrative implant tool for use with an implantable lead includes a main body, a plurality of spring contact members, and a knob mechanism. The main body of the implant tool includes a distal clamping mechanism with an opening adapted to frictionally receive a terminal boot of the implantable lead. The spring contact members are configured to provide an interface for connecting electrical connectors from a Pacing System Analyzer (PSA) or other testing device to the terminal contacts on the implantable lead. A knob mechanism coupled to the main body can be actuated to engage a terminal pin of the implantable lead, allowing an implanting physician to engage a fixation helix into body tissue by rotating the mechanism.

Abstract: An improved import/export element for a data media storage library for inserting data media into the data media storage library and removing data media from the data media storage library consists of an import/export element base, an import/export element intermediate slider slidingly engaged with the import/export element base, an import/export media drawer holding the media and slidingly engaged with the intermediate slider and extending outside the data media storage library, a motor attached to the import/export element base for moving the intermediate slider into and out of the import/export element base, and a pulley and belt for transmitting the motion of the intermediate slider to the media drawer such that during motion of the intermediate slider the media drawer moves about twice as far as the intermediate slider.

Abstract: A data storage library for storing and accessing data storage media, consisting of a housing, a storage array within the housing, the storage array having a wall, a media storage element arranged adjacent the storage array wall for holding storage media, a data transfer element arranged adjacent the storage array wall for reading and writing information on the storage media, an import/export element to transfer the storage media into and out of the data storage library, and a media transport element which moves along the storage array wall, the media transport element following any deviations in the wall to precisely position itself adjacent the media storage element and data transfer element.

Abstract: A high resolution thermal printer capable of printing both directly on a thermally responsive media and indirectly through a thermally responsive donor media is disclosed. The printer has a printing media guide mounted as an intermediate clamshell structure to accurately position the printing media immediately adjacent the print head and platen. The printing media guide includes a nip roller and guide bar independently suspended on a spring biased, pivot plate arrangement. The printing media is centered on the supply spool, and the printer includes a read/write circuit to communicate with a profiler chip centrally mounted in the printing media roll. The printer may also include a read/write circuit to communicate with a donor profiler chip centrally mounted in the donor media roll. A constant pressure brake with a friction belt is used directly against the printing media. A spring arm latch/channel block arrangement is used to secure the printing media supply spool.
