AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing medical imaging devices have limited field of view in the treatment area, and there is a time delay between imaging and execution, making it impossible to achieve wide-angle imaging and flexible instrument replacement.

Method used

A medical device is designed, including an axis and a working channel. An ultrasonic sensor is mounted on the axis, at least partially surrounding the working channel, allowing the instrument to pass through and maintain its pointing direction. The sensor can image a single field of view greater than 90 degrees, 180 degrees, or 360 degrees. The axis is deflected by a controller and multiple control components, supporting flexible operation of the instrument during the imaging process.

Benefits of technology

It enables real-time imaging, reduces the delay between imaging and the procedure, provides a wide field of view imaging capability, supports flexible operation of the device in the body and precise positioning of the target location, and reduces harm to the patient.
