摘要： A disposable eye piece system, including the eye piece and other disposable components, for a precision ultrasonic scanning apparatus is disclosed. The eye piece includes a fill port, a vent port and a drain port molded into the base of the eye piece. An RF Identification chip may be molded into the plastic base of the eye piece or, alternately into the conformable face seal of the eye piece. The components of a disposable eye piece system form an integrated disposable package that can be assembled, packaged, transported and used while maintaining the eye piece and saline solution in a sterile condition. The protective shipping container 1) protects the eye piece from damage, human contact and exposure to ambient air during shipping and storage and 2) allows the scanning physician or technician to attach the eye piece to the scanning machine without compromising the sterile condition of the eye piece.

摘要： The present disclosure is directed to an apparatus for an improved ultrasound eye scanning device wherein the size of the scan head is reduced significantly and the entire instrument can be placed on a desktop. The improved ultrasound eye scanning device also utilizes imaging goggles to enable better coupling between the patient and the instrument. The imaging goggles also allow both eyes of the patient to be scanned without the patient moving. Another innovation of the ultrasound imaging system according to the present disclosure is the use of the contralateral (opposite) eye for fixation and focusing during scanning.

摘要： The present disclosure is directed to a precision ultrasound scanner for imaging, for example, the prostate in a way that produces a superior image of the prostate while removing the iatrogenic risk and patient discomfort associated with other methods of providing an ultrasound image of the prostate. The present disclosure describes an apparatus and method for forming a high precision image of the prostate from outside the patient's body wherein the resolution in sufficient to image, for example, cancerous lesions on the surface of the prostate. To achieve such images, coded excitation, tissue harmonic imaging, advanced transducers operating in the 10 MHz to 40 MHz range is used to achieve a useable signal-to-noise reflection while being able to position the imaging transducer as close as possible to the prostate without risk or discomfort to the patient.

摘要： The present disclosure is directed to a method and apparatus for holding an eyelid open and preventing involuntary blinking during an ultrasound imaging procedure while ensuring patient safety and comfort. Eyelids can be taped up to the forehead or down to the cheek with common medical tape; however, this does not provide the instrument operator with the ability to adjust or control the amount of eye lid opening very well, nor allow the patient to relax the eyelids between scanning sessions. The present disclosure includes a speculum that can be placed in an eye piece such as used in a precision ultrasound device or other imaging device wherein the optical acoustic and transmission path between the eye and instrument is formed by a fluid such as saline solution and distilled water.

摘要： The present disclosure is directed to a system and method that detects and measures a vault of an anterior segment of an eye of a patient. The system and method locate an implanted contact lens (ICL) between a cornea and a natural lens, form a B-scan of the eye based on the received ultrasound pulses, removes background pixels, such as by binarizing and thresholding, from the B-Scan from a grayscale color palette to a black/white color palette, determines, from the resulting B-scan a fiduciary location in the anterior segment of the eye, and forms using the resulting B-scan and fiduciary location, a vault map mapping a distance between an anterior segment surface and a posterior surface of the ICL along a plurality of lines drawn perpendicular to a local surface of the anterior segment surface.
