A remote medical ultrasound examination system and method

Abstract

The present invention relates to a remote medical ultrasonic examination system and method. The remote medical ultrasonic examination system includes a patient consultation room A and an expert consultation room B; the patient consultation room A includes: a network system A, a microphone and a speaker A, and an examination bed A. Ultrasonic diagnostic instrument A, ultrasonic probe A, mechanical arm A, coupling agent application device A, pressure detector A, holographic camera system A, computer and client program A; the expert consultation room B includes network system B, microphone And speaker B, ultrasonic probe B, mechanical arm B, mechanical arm support B, pressure detector B, holographic imaging system B, computer and server program B; its advantages are: good visual and tactile experience for examiners, saving medical human resources (The examiner and the examinee can be online), the examination space is not limited, saving examination time, the ultrasound image is real-time dynamic, and the stored data can be used for case discussion and teaching in a virtual environment.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of medical devices, in particular to a remote medical ultrasonic inspection system and method. Background technique [0002] my country's medical model is highly centralized, and superior medical resources are highly concentrated in big cities and affiliated hospitals of medical colleges. The primary medical units do not even have professional ultrasonic diagnostic physicians, and they serve as ultrasonic diagnostic physicians for doctors in other departments. Compared with electrocardiogram, X-ray film, CT, MRI and other medical examinations, medical ultrasonography is not easy to achieve standardization, and it is closely related to the examiner's technique (examination site, ultrasound probe angle, ultrasound probe and skin pressure, etc.), experience and other factors. In primary medical units, there are problems such as non-standard operation techniques of ultrasound doctors and little experience in di...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0006] Disadvantages: high hardware and software investment costs; limited consultation time (both parties must be online); it is difficult for the operator to reach the angle and strength required by the expert with the ultrasound probe under the guidance of the expert's language

[0008] Disadvantages: The standard cut plane is greatly affected by the subjective factors of the examiner, not real-time, with little or no dynamics, and experts cannot guide the operator

[0009] To sum up, there is a need for a remote medical ultrasonography system and method to realize remote medical ultrasonography, store relevant data to facilitate future case discussions and establish medical ultrasonography models and courseware in a virtual environment. Ultrasonic Examination Model and Courseware Established in Virtual Environment
