Abstract: On a medical diagnosis and/or intervention device having a movable component, collision sensors are to be arranged without the cabling outlay becoming too high. This is made possible by the collision sensors being capable of sending signals wirelessly. The voltage supply can also be provided wirelessly along a section by using e.g. a slip ring.

Abstract: A system for wireless operation includes a receiver and a mobile remote control unit having an acceleration sensor and a control unit. The mobile remote control unit is operable to wirelessly transmit control signals to the receiver. The control unit is operable to receive and evaluate measurement signals of the acceleration sensor, determine a connection quality between the mobile remote control unit and the receiver, and block the transmission of at least some of the control signals when a decision criterion determined by the measurement signals of the acceleration sensor and the connection quality is exceeded.

Abstract: Various embodiments described herein can be used alone or in combination with one another. The forgoing detailed description has described only a few of the many possible implementations of the present invention. For this reason, this detailed description is intended by way of illustration, and not by way of limitation. It is only the following claims, including all equivalents that are intended to define the scope of this invention.

Abstract: The present invention involves an angiography device for examining vessels of patients having an x-ray emitter and an associated detector, having an image processing unit, an image display unit, a control unit, a collision computer and sensors. The sensors, which are fastened to the angiography device, are designed to scan the outer dimensions of the patient prior to the actual examination and during the examination. The data obtained in this way can be fed into a memory of the collision computer and the system is controllable by a software of the collision computer such that the movement of the system when the system and patient become too close can be automatically slowed down or completely stopped by means of a the control unit.

Abstract: The invention relates to a medical diagnostic or therapy system comprising a system controller and at least one moving apparatus component, comprising a contour detecting unit which is constructed for detecting the position of components of the diagnostic or therapy system, and at least one projector that is decoupled from the contour detecting unit and is constructed for visualizing the region being monitored in which the component of the diagnostic and/or therapy system scanned by the contour detecting unit is arranged. The invention also relates to a method for visualizing regions being monitored in a medical diagnostic or therapy system of this kind.

Abstract: A medical examination or intervention device that includes at least one component, in particular a C-arm, that can be moved under a user's control via a manual control device, as well as a collision monitoring device embodied for ascertaining an imminent collision and/or one having already occurred, with the control device having a haptic indicating means, controlled by the collision monitoring device, for indicating an imminent component collision and/or one having already occurred.
