  • Publication number: 20240290449
    Abstract: Described herein are techniques for generating a radiological report. In some cases, some or all of the radiological report may be generated during a medical imaging to which the report relates, such that the report is generated contemporaneously with or in real time during the imaging. In some embodiments described herein, some or all of the radiological report may be generated automatically, without intervention from an imaging technician or from a radiologist. Such an automatic generation of radiological report content may be performed in some embodiments through comparison of information regarding a medical imaging of a patient to information regarding one or more prior medical imaging's of the patient or other patients. In response to detecting a match between information regarding a medical imaging of a patient and information regarding a prior medical imaging, information relating to the prior medical imaging may be used to generate the radiological report.

  • Patent number: 12062440
    Abstract: Methods, apparatuses, and systems for maintaining and controlling surgical tools are disclosed. For each surgical tool, a surgeon can give verbal commands which can result in feedback provided by a synthesized voice or the execution of an action as instructed by the verbal command. The tools are monitored during use to ensure the tools remain within their operating parameters. The system alerts the surgeon should the tools approach their operational limitations.

  • Patent number: 12023103
    Abstract: The disclosed technology provides for printing a 3D structure in-situ within a patient during a surgical procedure. The disclosed technology can include generating instructions for a 3D printer of a surgical robot to print a structure within the patient's body, simulating and verifying the instructions, and autonomously or semi-autonomously executing the instructions, once verified, during a surgical procedure. Generating the instructions for printing the 3D structure within the patient can be based on image data of the patient. Generating the instructions can also include selecting substrate materials that are both safe for the patient and having desired properties of the final printed structure. Modifications can be made to the instructions based on results from the simulation. The disclosed technology provides for application of safe substrate material directly to hard and/or soft tissues within the patient's body via an additive manufacturing process, such as 3D printing.

  • Patent number: 11998281
    Abstract: Methods, apparatuses, and systems for performing robotic surgery in an extended reality (XR) collaborative customizable virtual operating room are disclosed. The disclosed systems provide a virtual environment in which a surgical robot network receives medical images of a patient and creates a digital twin from a patient's medical images. The surgical robot network allows a first user to create a virtual environment to perform a surgical procedure, select workflow objects, and perform actions on the digital twin. The data of the workflow objects and actions in relation to the digital twin is stored. The first user invites a second user to join the virtual environment who may collaborate with the first user on the workflow objects and actions performed to adjust the workflow, workflow objects, and actions performed. The workflow, workflow objects, actions in relation to the digital twin are sent to a surgical robot.

  • Patent number: 11963724
    Abstract: This specification describes systems, methods, devices, and related techniques for optimizing 3D printed implants. A 3D network can collect medical images from an imaging device and create a 3D image of the damaged or malfunctioning body part. The 3D network allows a user to alter the 3D image to fix the damages or malfunctions and the 3D network, compares the altered 3D image to a historical database containing healthy patient's medical images, and provides recommendations to allow the user to further enhance the altered 3D image. The 3D network then performs a simulation on the enhanced 3D image to determine, if the 3D image was printed, if it will be successful or not. Once successful, the 3D image is printed using a 3D printer and the user tests the compatibility of the 3D printed object to determine if the implant or transplant would be successful.

  • Publication number: 20240122649
    Abstract: Methods, apparatuses, and systems for digital image analysis for device navigation in tissue are disclosed. The disclosed system uses real-time angiography and artificial intelligence to navigate an end effector of a surgical robot through a patient's vasculature to provide a surgical intervention. Digital imaging is performed that enables three-dimensional mapping of the patient's vasculature. Locations and movement of the end effector of the surgical robot are determined. The end effector is used to perform an intervention such as the removal of a blood clot or delivery of a drug for dissolving a blood clot.

  • Patent number: 11937879
    Abstract: A system for implanting surgical material in a patient's body is disclosed. The system comprises a two-dimensional (2D) laser cutter network comprising a 2D laser cutter and a processor. The processor is configured to perform the steps of capturing an image of an open area of a patient's body and processing a drug implant substrate to create a customized drug implant substrate. The customized drug implant may be created based on the captured image to correspond with the open area of the patient's body. The drug implant substrate is shaped using the 2D laser cutter. The processor is further configured to perform the steps of placing the customized drug implant substrate in the open area of the patient's body and sealing the open area after placing the customized drug implant substrate in the open area.

  • Patent number: 11931118
    Abstract: Methods, apparatuses, and systems for providing updates to a surgical robot in which a surgical robot receives a notification that there is an update available or detects a new hardware component that has been attached to the surgical robot. The surgical robot then determines if it is currently in use or is inactive and if inactive the surgical robot downloads the latest update. Additionally, the system provides a process of remote monitoring of telesurgical robots for safety and redundancy, in which the surgical robot collects data representing at least one assistance parameter of the surgical robot during a surgical procedure. The data is assessed, and it is determined if non-surgical assistance is required and connecting the medical professional to a technician to resolve the potential issue.
