Embodiment Construction

[0030] Disclosed is an ultrasound imaging system comprising an intraluminal imaging catheter, a non-volatile memory, a manufacturer's console capable of writing encrypted or unencrypted data to three different areas of the non-volatile memory, or Manufacturer's workstation, clinical console or clinical workstation capable of writing encrypted data to two of the three areas of nonvolatile memory, and capable of writing to one of the three areas of nonvolatile memory Reprocessor's console or reprocessor's workstation that encrypts data. The system tracks the number of times a given catheter is authorized to be used, the number of times it has been used, the maximum duration of use allowed, and other relevant information as necessary to prevent unauthorized re-use and to ensure that be properly reprocessed.

[0031] Dividing the non-volatile memory into at least two regions (e.g., three distinct regions: a public read-only region and two encrypted and possibly checksummed read-w...

Abstract

An endoluminal imaging catheter includes a flexible elongate member configured to be positioned within a body lumen of a patient; an ultrasound transducer array coupled to the flexible elongate member and configured to obtain imaging data when positioned within a body lumen; and a memory comprising a plurality of regions configured to store one or more values of one or more fields, where the plurality of regions comprise a first region where one or more fields in the first region comprise a device identification, a serial number, and / or a manufacturing date, where the plurality of regions comprise at least a second region where one or more fields in the first region comprise a device identification, a serial number, and / or a manufacturing date. Wherein the one or more fields in at least the second region include a current usage count, a maximum number of uses, and a status of the intraluminal imaging catheter. Associated apparatus, systems, and methods are also disclosed.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates generally to instrumented intraluminal sensing devices, and more particularly to intraluminal imaging catheters, such as intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) catheters, equipped with tracking hardware. Background technique [0002] Diagnostic and therapeutic ultrasound catheters have been designed for use in many areas of the body. In the cardiovascular system, a common ultrasound diagnostic method is intraluminal ultrasound imaging, of which intracentral echocardiography (ICE) is a specific example of intraluminal imaging. Typically, a single rotating transducer or an array of transducer elements is used to emit ultrasound at the end of the catheter. The same transducer is used to receive echoes from the tissue. The signals generated from the echoes are transmitted to a console that allows processing, storage, display or manipulation of ultrasound-related data. [0003] Intraluminal imaging catheters, such as ICE cathe...
