ULTRASOUND DEVICE WITH VIDEO DISPLAY CAPABILITY AND ASSOCIATED DEVICES, SYSTEMS, AND METHODS

摘要

A method of operating a portable ultrasound device to display digital video information from a video camera includes loading instructions into a memory of the device that configures processor electronics to process digital video signals. When a request for the video is received, the ultrasound device can ready itself to receive digital video information and display an image at a display of the ultrasound device based at least in part on the video information. In one embodiment, the video modality is enabled when the portable ultrasound device detects that the digital camera device has been connected to a port.

主权项

1. A non-transitory computer readable media, including instructions that are executable by a programmable processor to perform a method of configuring an ultrasound device to display images based on digital video information received from a video camera device by at least one of:
loading instructions into memory for gamma correction, scaling, and/or color mapping of an ultrasound display configuration so that it operates in a video display configuration; temporarily disabling a data connection with a server configured to track patient data; and remapping one or more input devices for controlling ultrasound processing so that the input devices control image processing.
