  • Patent number: 11950954
    Abstract: An intraluminal imaging system is provided. The intraluminal imaging system includes a patient interface module (PIM) in communication with an intraluminal device comprising an ultrasound imaging component and positioned within a body lumen of a patient, a wireless router via an signal link, and a computing device in wireless communication with the wireless router, wherein the PIM comprises a processing component configured to receive an ultrasound echo signal from the ultrasound imaging component; and determine image data based on at least the ultrasound echo signal; and a power and communication component configured to receive power from the signal link; and transmit, to the computing device via the signal link and the wireless router, the image data.

  • Publication number: 20230334659
    Abstract: A co-registration system includes a processor circuit that determines a mapping between corresponding locations of a first 3D model of a blood vessel based on CT imaging data and a second 3D model of the blood vessel based on x-ray angiography data. The processor circuit receives, from an x-ray fluoroscopy device, x-ray fluoroscopy images of the blood vessel while an intravascular catheter/guidewire moves through the blood vessel. The processor circuit receives, from the catheter/guidewire, intravascular data representative of the blood vessel while the catheter/guidewire moves through the blood vessel. The processor circuit co-registers the intravascular data to the second 3D model based on the x-ray fluoroscopy images. The processor circuit co-registers the intravascular data to the first 3D model based on the mapping.

  • Publication number: 20200043608
    Abstract: An intraluminal sensing system is provided. The intraluminal sensing system includes a patient interface module (PIM) in communication with an intraluminal device comprising a physiologic sensor and positioned within a body lumen of a patient, a wireless router via a signal link, and a computing device in wireless communication with the wireless router, wherein the PIM comprises a processing component configured to receive a sensor signal from the physiologic sensor; and determine physiologic data based on at least the sensor signal; and a power and communication component configured to receive power from the signal link; and transmit, to the computing device via the signal link and the wireless router, the physiologic data.
