  • Patent number: 11214934
    Abstract: A variety of systems, methods, and compositions are disclosed, including in one method, a security arm barrier system, the system comprising: a drive stanchion mounted to a first substructure; an arm barrier coupled to the drive stanchion, wherein the arm barrier further comprises: a first member, wherein a proximal end of the first member is coupled to the drive stanchion; a second member, wherein a proximal end of the second member coupled to a distal end of the first member; and an articulating joint that couples the first member and the second member, and an energy absorbing material disposed within the first member and the second member; and a receiver stanchion mounted to a second substructure capable of receiving a distal end of the second member.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20080049996
    Abstract: A system and method for processing mammographic data are described. The system includes a user input/output system adapted and configured to receive from a user a user-defined scanning protocol that identifies the laterality and view type for each mammographic film in a film case to be scanned. A storage system stores the user-defined scanning protocol for subsequent use in scanning film cases. A scanning system scans film cases and generates digitized versions of each mammographic film. A processor then assigns laterality and view types to the digitized versions of the mammographic film according to the user-defined scanning protocol. The system also receives user alterations to stored scanning protocols. The system can also re-assigns a case scanned according to one scanning protocol to another scanning protocol in response to a user's instruction to do so.

  • Publication number: 20060126909
    Abstract: A system, method, and related computer program products for processing mammographic data are described. A digitizer receives a plurality of film cases arranged in a film case sequence, each film case comprising at least one mammographic film, the digitizer scanning each film case for generating a digitized version thereof. A processor processes the digitized versions according to at least one computer-aided detection (CAD) algorithm for detecting anatomical abnormalities therein. A display coupled to the processor displays a graphical status indicator comprising a plurality of film case icons, each film case icon corresponding to one of the film cases, wherein the film case icons are spatially ordered according to the film case sequence, and wherein each film case icon is configured to graphically communicate a current state of the scanning/processing for its corresponding film case.
