Remote-controlled B-mode ultrasound detection device with coupling-agent automatic addition function

Abstract

A remote-controlled B-mode ultrasound detection device with a coupling-agent automatic addition function includes a five-axis linkage remote-controlled intelligent manipulator, a remote control terminal, a B-mode ultrasonic detection main unit capable of transmitting and receiving data over a network, and a coupling-agent supplying device capable of automatically adding a coupling agent. The tailend of the intelligent manipulator is provided with a detection probe of the B-mode ultrasonic detection main unit, an agent outlet of the coupling-agent supplying device is formed near the probe, thetail end of the intelligent manipulator is provided with at least three distance sensors and one pressure sensor, the pressure sensor can detect pressure the probe suffers from, the distance sensorsare uniformly distributed on the periphery of the probe, and the remote control terminal can control the manipulator to move to do various motions.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a medical device, in particular to a remotely controlled B-ultrasonic detection device for automatically adding coupling agent. Background technique [0002] The couplant used for ultrasonic inspection is an indispensable auxiliary material in the ultrasonic inspection work. In actual use, it is stored in the couplant bottle. The patient underwent ultrasonography. Therefore, for a sonographer, if it is conservatively estimated that 50 cases of ultrasound examinations are performed per day, and each case is squeezed twice, the sonographer needs to squeeze the coupling agent bottle hundreds of times a day, and repeat the manual operation every year. Squeeze the couplant bottle more than 20,000 times. Such long-term repetitive actions may cause early degenerative lesions of the metacarpophalangeal joints and finger joints of the hands. [0003] Ultrasound examination is a convenient, non-invasive, non-radiative, and relatively i...

Problems solved by technology

However, manual application cannot control the amount of couplant used, which increases the cost of medical treatment and the complexity of the doctor's operation of ultrasonic equipment. At the same time, manual application of couplant may cause uneven application of ultrasonic couplant, and ultrasonic couplant is not applied in some places. , affecting the results of ultrasonography

Moreover, the temperature of the ultrasonic coupling agent is too low, which will cause a great stress response to the human body and easily affect the patient's medical experience.

[0004] Although the patent CN201620676935.6 realizes semi-automatic control, the control accuracy of the cylinder is low and the control difficulty is high, which is not practical. Although the patent CN201910112823.6 can automatically apply the couplant, repeated detection at the same position will waste a lot of couplant

[0005] Nowadays, B-ultrasound is usually required to go to the hospital to see a doctor, but B-ultrasound often requires an appointment to queue up, so it is very troublesome to go to the hospital many times to see a doctor, especially for rural people who go to the city. Remote diagnosis of diseases will be a trend in the future. The remote detection market is also very large

[0006] Although the patent CN108187248A can be remotely controlled, it has no specific design for couplant control and pressure control, and there is no specific detection method for the detection of curved surfaces, and most positions of the human body are curved surfaces, so its detection has limitations
