Patent number: 10304565Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems and methods for collecting a plurality of medical images. A method includes displaying a list that includes an indication corresponding to each image of a plurality of medical images of a workflow, wherein the indications are listed based on a sequence defined by the workflow. The method includes receiving a selection by a user indicating a specific image to be acquired from the plurality of medical images. The specific image is selected in an order different than defined in the sequence based on a position of an imaging target allowing for capture of the specific image. The method includes acquiring the specific image and displaying an updated list to omit an indication corresponding to the acquired specific image of the plurality of medical images.Type: GrantFiled: September 29, 2017Date of Patent: May 28, 2019Assignee: Shenzhen Mindray Bio-Medical Electronics Co., Ltd.Inventors: David Barr, Wayne Ellsworth

Patent number: 9262587Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems and methods for collecting a plurality of medical images. According to one embodiment, a system may include an image acquisition unit to acquire image data, a processing unit to process the image data, a workflow unit to receive a selection of a primary workflow, and an insertion unit to suspend the workflow system. The insertion unit may receive a second selection of a secondary workflow. Upon the completion of the collection of the second plurality of medical images, the workflow unit may resume the collection of the first plurality of medical images. According to certain embodiments, the primary workflow or the secondary workflow may specify an order for collecting a primary and secondary plurality of medical images. Annotations may be added to the plurality of images based on the primary workflow and/or the secondary workflow.Type: GrantFiled: December 23, 2011Date of Patent: February 16, 2016Assignee: SHENZHEN MINDRAY BIO-MEDICAL ELECTRONICS CO., LTD.Inventors: David Barr, Wayne Ellsworth
