  • Publication number: 20230329655
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for delivering images to a patient before and/or during a medical procedure in which a patient is translated on a table relative to a gantry. In various example embodiments, images are projected to the patient while preserving the projected field size during table motion, thereby potentially reducing patient anxiety by providing a more immersive patient viewing experience. In some embodiments, the projected field size is maintained by a display system that is secured to the table such that both a projector and a projection screen are fixed relative to the table, and relative to the patient, during translation of the table. In some example embodiments, a reduction in patient anxiety may be achieved by projecting images as virtual images that are perceived by the patient as residing at a depth that lies beyond the confined spatial region in which the patient resides.

  • Patent number: 11775898
    Abstract: A resource dependency system and its associated user interfaces, used for tracking data dependencies and data transformations between resources, may display visual node graphs with resources as nodes and the data dependencies and data transformations associated with the columns as edges between the nodes. The nodes representing the resources may be displayed differently based on relevant differences in the resources they represent, which can be set through various selectable criteria and schemes. The user interfaces may include selectable options for visually arranging the nodes or grouping the nodes into superseding nodes according to how the nodes are displayed or the relevant differences in the resources they represent. Updated properties and data dependencies associated with superseding nodes can be presented to the user.

  • Patent number: 11618434
    Abstract: A hybrid vehicle includes an electric machine, an engine selectively coupled to the electric machine by a disconnect clutch, and a controller. The controller is programmed to, in response to a change in the driver-demanded torque necessitating starting of the engine: determine a state of driving (SOD) based on the change in driver-demanded torque, wherein the SOD is indicative of a desired responsiveness of the vehicle, and the desired responsiveness increases as SOD increases; command a speed target to the engine equal to a predicted motor speed associated with the driver-demanded torque plus an offset that is based on the SOD; and command a capacity to the disconnect clutch at a rate and a magnitude based on the SOD.

  • Publication number: 20220409149
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for managing and reducing the severity or impact of a collision involving an apparatus secured to a table associated with a medical imaging and/or therapeutic gantry. Example systems are provided in which an apparatus is secured to the table such that a distal region of the apparatus extends beyond a longitudinal end of the table. A pivot joint associated with the apparatus is provided such that when a collision between the distal region of the apparatus and an object occurs due to motion of the table, the resulting force causes the apparatus to rotate relative to the pivot joint, thus passively accommodating the applied force and preventing, or reducing the likelihood of, mechanical buckling of the apparatus in the presence of the force. In some example embodiments, the apparatus is configured to rotate and/or translate as a result of the force applied during the collision.

  • Patent number: 11488690
    Abstract: A system and method for problem list categorization and management in an electronic health or medical record includes matching each entry in the list with an interface terminology concept, grouping related concepts together into one or more categories, and grouping entries into one or more nested sets of problems. Groupings are accomplished by analyzing semantic distances between concept elements to determine which entries are duplicates according to the interface terminology and which are different but related to sufficiently similar concepts. Certain elements will be sufficiently related that they are nested or clustered within a single problem list element. Others are different enough to merit different elements but classification within a common category of problems.
