  • Patent number: 11419582
    Abstract: The present disclosure describes ultrasound imaging systems and methods for operating an ultrasound system with a multi-mode touch screen interface. An ultrasound system according to the present disclosure may include a movable base and a control panel supported by the movable base. The control panel may include a plurality of manual controls provided on a support surface and a touch control panel movably coupled to the support surface. The touch control panel may include a touch display configured to provide a touch-sensitive user interface. The touch control panel may be movable between a plurality of positions at which the touch display is at different angles relative to the support surface. The touch display may be configured to automatically change a user interface provided on the touch display responsive to movement of the touch display to any of the plurality of positions.

  • Patent number: 11094138
    Abstract: A medical imaging system configured to link acquired images to markers or tags on an anatomical illustration, based, at least in part on spatial and anatomical data associated with the acquired image. The medical imaging system may be further configured to generate a diagnostic report including the anatomical illustration containing the markers. The diagnostic report may allow a user to select a marker to view information associated with an acquired image and/or the acquired image. Multiple images may be associated with a marker, and/or multiple markers may be associated with an image. A set of 2D and/or 3D anatomical illustrations may be generated which contains markers from multiple diagnostic reports and updated automatically for an individual patient's anatomical model by the application to reflect measurements and/quantitative findings related to organ, tissue, and vessel size, location, deformation, and/or obstruction.
