Abstract: A security gateway for touch-free infectious disease screening includes a contactless sensor, a memory and a processor. The contactless sensor is configured to obtain health readings of a subject. The memory stores instructions. The processor executes the instructions. When executed by the processor, the instructions cause the security gateway to measure vital signs based on the health readings of the subject, and determine whether to allow access to a premise based on the vital signs.

Abstract: A magnetic resonance imaging system (10) includes a scanner unit (12) including a main magnet with a magnet bore (16), and a bore region lighting unit (28) including lighting members (32, 36), which is configured for generating lighting conditions at a bore region (26) by using the lighting members (32, 36), for influencing the subject of interest's optical perception regarding a radial dimension (b) of the magnet bore (16) by at least one out of detracting the subject of interest's attention, generating an optical illusion in connection with the radial dimension (b) of the magnet bore (16) and camouflaging the magnet bore (16).

Abstract: An imaging system (100) includes a stationary gantry (102) having a front side (106) and an examination region (110). The imaging system further includes a patient support (120) configured to position an object or subject thereon in the examination region (110). The imaging system further includes patient support motion controls (122) affixed to the stationary gantry (102) and including a multi-position single control member (202) that controls horizontal, vertical, and diagonal motion of the patient support (120) in and out of the examination region (110).

Abstract: Through changes in lighting and audio solutions together with projections of images and/or animations that are initiated by the entrance of a person (professional or patient) in a medical environment, such as a radiology department, cardiology department, intensive care unit, etc., a certain ambience/atmosphere is created in this specific architectural context. This ambience can be a choice from certain predefined themes (e.g. animal drawings for children or nature images) or truly personal when personal content (e.g. images of family or vacation) is inserted in the system.

Abstract: Elements (2), which are used in a medical activity, are stored in a storage space (3) including a plurality of partitions (4) which are each dedicated to receiving a certain type of element (2) assigned to a predetermined medical activity. A user interface (6) selects a preferred medical activity from a plurality of medical activities. In response to the input activity, the partition (4) which holds the corresponding element (2) signals to indicate the correct element (2) to be used for the selected activity. In this manner the medical staff is offered ‘intelligent’ management of medical accessories and space, which helps the staff in organizing elements in an efficient and time- saving manner. In addition, a more flexible working environment contributes to the clinical staff feeling freer at work.

Abstract: Projection systems are known to display images of all kind. The invention proposes to use of a ceiling of a room, for example the bedroom can be used to display all kind of images. Further the invention makes the projection system very much user-interactive.
