LAYER OF MATERIAL FOR USE WITH TISSUE EXAMINATION DEVICE |
摘要 |
A layer of material (300) is provided for covering a plurality of sensors (102) when using these sensors (102) to examine tissue. The layer of material (300) is used with a tissue examination device that has a plurality of pressure sensors (102) that produce signals in response to pressure imposed on the sensor as the sensors are pressed against tissue. The device also has a processor (114) for processing those signals to detect whether an underlying tissue structure is present in the tissue being examined. The layer of material (300) is configured to be disposed over the sensors (102), and to distribute the imposed pressure in a selected manner. The processor (300) can also process the signals to generate an image representative of the underlying tissue structure, and a display can then display that image.
