Abstract: Systems, methods, apparatuses, and software for provide a digital media caching environment are provided herein. In one example, a method of operating a content node to provide a digital media caching environment is provided. The method includes receiving a request transferred by an end user device for digital media content. Responsive to the request, the method includes retrieving at least a header portion and a content subset of the digital media content from an origin server and transmuxing the content subset of the digital media content from an origin format into a stream format suitable for streaming to the end user device, and streaming the content subset in the stream format for delivery to the end user device.

Abstract: A method for performing radiological-image-guided percutaneous surgery with a system which includes a radiological image generating device for generating an image of a target anatomy of a patient, and a needle insertion mechanism disposed adjacent the image generating device and having a needle adapted to be inserted into the patient. The method includes the steps of: determining a needle trajectory of the needle by positioning the image generating device for aligning, in the image generated by the image generating device, a desired skin insertion site of the patient with a target region of the target anatomy; locking the needle in a direction of the needle trajectory; and repositioning the image generating device to obtain a lateral view of the needle trajectory for viewing an insertion depth and path of the needle during its insertion into the patient.
