An imaging system collects a plurality of images of an extremity of a subject, each collected at a unique spectral band. A physiologic arterial parameter of the extremity is determined from the plurality of images upon image registration. A record of the physiological arterial parameter is recorded in an electronic data store and an indication of the parameter is outputted. The method is performed by a medical professional associated with a temporal clinical expenditure cost in an epoch, for an entity. The product of the (i) epoch and the (ii) temporal clinical expenditure cost is less than a difference between (a) an average or absolute reimbursement associated with the current procedural terminology code by the entity and (b) incidental expenditures associated with the performance of the method.

Systems and methods for performing an imaging test under constrained conditions

Provided are methods and systems for concurrent imaging at multiple wavelengths. In one aspect, a hyperspectral/multispectral imaging device includes a lens configured to receive light backscattered by an object, a plurality of photo-sensors, a plurality of bandpass filters covering respective photo-sensors, where each bandpass filter is configured to allow a different respective spectral band to pass through the filter, and a plurality of beam splitters in optical communication with the lens and the photo-sensors, where each beam splitter splits the light received by the lens into a plurality of optical paths, each path configured to direct light to a corresponding photo-sensor through the bandpass filter corresponding to the respective photo-sensor.

The disclosure provides methods and systems for determining tissue oxygenation. An electronic device obtains a data set including a plurality of images of a tissue of interest, each resolved at a different spectral band. Spectral analysis is performed, upon image registration, at a plurality of points in a two-dimensional area of the images of the tissue. The spectral analysis including determining approximate values of oxyhemoglobin levels and deoxyhemoglobin levels at each respective point in the plurality of points. The predetermined set of eight to twelve spectral bands includes spectral bands that provide improved methods for measuring tissue oxygenation.

The disclosure provides computer systems, non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, and methods for determining the presence of a skin indication in a subject. In some aspects the method includes acquiring a hyperspectral imaging data set from a region of interest of a human subject using a hyperspectral imager, and applying the hyperspectral imaging data set against a classifier including a two layered media model, the two layered media model including a first layer of a modeled human tissue overlying a second layer of the modeled human tissue, where the two layered media model has been trained by application of simulated data across a set of optical and geometric properties associated with the presence or the absence of a skin indication, where the two layered media model computes tissue reflectance R from the modeled human tissue by a relationship provided herein.

Systems and methods for evaluating hyperspectral imaging data using a two layer media model of human tissue

Provided are methods and systems for concurrent imaging at multiple wavelengths. In one aspect, an imaging device includes at least one objective lens configured to receive light backscattered by an object, a plurality of pixel array photo-sensors, a plurality of bandpass filters covering respective photo-sensors, where each bandpass filter is configured to allow a different respective spectral band to pass through the filter, and a beam steering assembly in optical communication with the at least one objective lens and the photo-sensors. The beam steering assembly directs light received by at least one objective lens from the tissue of a subject to at least one pixel array photo-sensor in the plurality of pixel array photo-sensors.

Compact light sensors with symmetrical lighting

A portable medical device is provided with an internal accelerometer device. The medical device includes a circuit board, the accelerometer device, and a response module coupled to the accelerometer device. The accelerometer device is mechanically and electrically coupled to the circuit board, and it includes a plurality of mass-supporting arms for a plurality of electrically distinct sensor electrodes, piezoelectric material for the mass-supporting arm, and a proof mass supported by the mass-supporting arms. Each of the mass-supporting arms has one of the sensor electrodes located thereon. Acceleration of the proof mass causes deflection of the piezoelectric material, which generates respective sensor signals at one or more of the sensor electrodes. The response module is configured to initiate an acceleration-dependent operation of the portable medical device in response to generated sensor signals present at the sensor electrodes.
