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 example 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.

Abstract: Embodiments of an engine generator set are provided herein with a compact, modular design and improved cooling characteristics. The engine generator set embodiments may generally comprise a horizontally shafted engine and alternator, and a cooling system. In some embodiments, the embodiments may include a set of on-board transformers. The cooling system includes one or more components, such as a radiator and one or more electrically driven fans, which are mounted above and/or below the horizontally shafted engine and alternator in a vertical stack. A generator set housing encloses the horizontally shafted engine and alternator, the cooling system and the set of on-board transformers (if included), as well as other generator set components. Due in part to the vertical stacking of the cooling system components, a height of the generator set housing may be substantially larger than a length of the generator set housing, resulting in a substantially reduced footprint, as compared to conventional generator sets.
