An ultrasound system includes an ultrasound scanner, a patient-worn registration system configured in at least a one-way communication with an interventional instrument, and a processor system. The processor system is configured to determine, based on the ultrasound data and positional data of the ultrasound scanner, a first location of the patient anatomy relative to the patient-worn registration system, determine, based on the at least a one-way communication, a second location of the interventional instrument relative to the patient-worn registration system; and determine, based on the first location and the second location, a third location of the interventional instrument relative to the patient anatomy. The processor system is configured to display a depiction of the patient anatomy based on the ultrasound data and a visual representation of the interventional instrument at the third location on a display device.

Registration system for cardiac ultrasound

This disclosure provides systems, devices, methods, and apparatus, for coordinating scanners in an ultrasound cart. An ultrasound system can include an ultrasound cart having a scanner holder configured to hold ultrasound scanners, a display device configured to display a visual representation of the scanner holder, and at least one of the ultrasound scanners. The visual representation can be implemented to identify locations of the ultrasound scanners on the scanner holder. The ultrasound scanners can be configured to indicate, while being held in the scanner holder, that one ultrasound scanner of the ultrasound scanners is to be selected for an ultrasound examination. The ultrasound scanner can also be configured to implement a first ultrasound imaging mode when a display device is attached to the ultrasound cart, and a second ultrasound imaging mode and not the first ultrasound imaging mode when the display device is removed from the ultrasound cart.

Coordinating scanners in an ultrasound cart

An ultrasound probe and a ultrasound system are disclosed. In some embodiments, the ultrasound system includes a bite block configured to, during a transesophageal insertion of the probe cable starting from the distal end, guard the probe cable from a bite and prevent anteflexion and retroflexion movement of the transducer until a predetermined length of the probe cable is inserted.

Transesophageal ultrasound system

Certain embodiments are directed to a method, system, or apparatus, such as a medical imaging device. The method can include retrieving data from a worksheet or form repository server. The data can include one or more fields of a customized worksheet or form. The one or more fields can be based on at least one of an identification of a user, a location of the medical imaging device, or a medical department using the medical imaging device. The method can also include recreating the customized worksheet or form at the medical imaging device based on the received data, and displaying the recreated customized worksheet or form on a graphical user interface connected to the medical imaging device. In addition, the method can include producing a medical image via the medical imaging device, and automatically forwarding the customized worksheet or form and the medical image to a billable workflow or an educational workflow.
