Patent number: 11928859Abstract: Aspects of the technology described herein relate to techniques for guiding an operator to use an ultrasound device. Thereby, operators with little or no experience operating ultrasound devices may capture medically relevant ultrasound images and/or interpret the contents of the obtained ultrasound images. For example, some of the techniques disclosed herein may be used to identify a particular anatomical view of a subject to image with an ultrasound device, guide an operator of the ultrasound device to capture an ultrasound image of the subject that contains the particular anatomical view, and/or analyze the captured ultrasound image to identify medical information about the subject.Type: GrantFiled: October 27, 2022Date of Patent: March 12, 2024Assignee: BFLY OPERATIONS, INC.Inventors: Daniel Nouri, Alex Rothberg, Matthew de Jonge, Jimmy Jia, Jonathan M. Rothberg, Michal Sofka, David Elgena, Mark Michalski, Tomer Gafner, Abraham Neben

Publication number: 20240062353Abstract: Aspects of the technology described herein relate to techniques for calculating, during imaging, a quality of a sequence of images collected during the imaging. Calculating the quality of the sequence of images may include calculating a probability that a medical professional would use a given image for clinical evaluation and a confidence that an automated analysis segmentation performed on the given image is correct. Techniques described herein also include receiving a trigger to perform an automatic measurement on a sequence of images, calculating a quality of the sequence of images, determining whether the quality of the sequence of images exceeds a threshold quality, and performing the automatic measurement on the sequence of images based on determining that the quality of the sequence of images exceeds the threshold quality.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 3, 2023Publication date: February 22, 2024Applicant: BFLY OPERATIONS, INC.Inventors: Alex Rothberg, Igor Lovchinsky, Jimmy Jia, Tomer Gafner, Matthew de Jonge, Jonathan M.

Publication number: 20230256632Abstract: An electric-powered trimmer includes a cutting assembly having a stationary blade. A moveable blade is positioned on the stationary blade such that a cutting gap is defined between the moveable blade and the stationary blade. The moveable blade is configured to move along a first axis and a second axis extending orthogonal to the first axis. An adjustment mechanism is operable to move the moveable blade along the second axis relative to the stationary blade to selectively change the size of the cutting gap.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 17, 2022Publication date: August 17, 2023Inventors: Tristan WALKER, Jimmy JIA, Martin BONE

Publication number: 20200291467Abstract: System and methods for identifying nucleotides based on data acquired from a sensor during sequencing of nucleic acids. The method may include obtaining characteristics of light detected from luminescent labels associated with the nucleotides during nucleotide incorporation events. The characteristics may include, for each nucleotide incorporation event, a temporal characteristic the light and an intensity characteristic of the light. The temporal characteristic representing a speed of decay of a probability of photon emission by a luminescent label after excitation. The method may further include grouping points representing the characteristics of the nucleotide incorporation events into groups of points. The individual points may represent at least the temporal characteristic and the intensity characteristic for a corresponding nucleotide incorporation event. The method may further include assigning the groups of points to individual nucleotides.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 2, 2020Publication date: September 17, 2020Applicant: Quantum-Si IncorporatedInventors: Jonathan M.
