[0002] With the improvement of living standards, people pay more and more attention to dental health. Dental imaging equipment plays a vital role in the diagnosis and treatment of dental diseases. The patient support devices of existing dental imaging equipment generally need to be brought by the equipment. For example, a seated CBCT generally has its own seat, and a horizontal large CT generally needs to have its own scanning bed. The horizontal CT with its own scanning bed is generally very large in size, and the lead room of a small clinic cannot accommodate such a large device.

[0003] Because the patient support device must be provided by the dental imaging device itself, the dental imaging device cannot be interlocked with any existing brand of dental chair, so it is impossible to use an ordinary dental chair to replace the scanning bed for the patient to lie down for dental imaging scanning. The versatility and adaptability of the equipment are poor, and the support device provided by the dental imaging device is bulky and expensive. Therefore, the dental imaging device in the prior art not only occupies a large space and is inconvenient to carry and assemble, but also has a high purchase cost. Summary of the invention

[0009] As a preferred technical solution of the present application, the in-place sensor detects the position of the dental chair, and the step of determining whether the dental chair is in the position required for CT shooting includes: based on the dental chair position parameters detected by the in-place sensor, when the position parameters of the dental chair deviate from the preset parameters of the in-place sensor, the in-place sensor prompts the operator to adjust the dental chair position until the dental chair position meets the shooting requirements.

[0010] As a preferred technical solution of the present application, the in-place sensor detects the position of the dental chair, and the step of determining whether the dental chair is in the position required for CT scanning also includes: when the dental chair position parameters detected by the in-place sensor are the same as their preset parameters, the in-place sensor transmits a signal to the control circuit board, and the control circuit board sends an unlocking signal to the diagnostic module through the communication module so that the diagnostic module can work normally, and at the same time sends a signal to the dental chair prohibiting movement.

[0011] As a preferred technical solution of the present application, during the shooting process, the anti-collision sensor continuously monitors the distance between the C-arm and the dental chair or the patient, and the step of ensuring that the C-arm and the dental chair or the patient are at a safe distance includes: based on the distance between the C-arm and the dental chair or the patient monitored by the anti-collision sensor, when the distance between the C-arm and the dental chair or the patient is lower than the preset value set by the anti-collision sensor, the anti-collision sensor sends a signal to the diagnostic device and controls the C-arm to move away from the dental chair or the patient.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: 1. The CT interlocking system can enable dental imaging equipment to be used in conjunction with dental chairs of any brand, so that the dental chair can have the function of a scanning bed, providing a new support platform for dental imaging equipment. This innovative design allows dental imaging equipment to no longer be limited by its own supporting device, but can be flexibly combined with existing dental chairs. There is no need to purchase additional supporting devices to match the dental imaging equipment, so that the existing dental chair can achieve multiple uses, greatly improving the versatility, adaptability and utilization of the equipment, and solving the problem in the prior art that dental imaging equipment needs to have its own supporting device, which makes it difficult to carry, occupies a large space and has a high purchase cost.

[0017] 2. The CT interlocking system can not only enable ordinary dental chairs to perform routine dental examinations, but can also be interlocked with dental imaging equipment to have the same effect as a scanning bed, allowing patients to lie on dental chairs for dental imaging scans. Therefore, patients do not need to transfer between different dental chairs, which makes it convenient for patients to receive one-stop diagnosis and treatment, reducing patients' running around and waiting time, thereby improving patients' medical experience. Moreover, because patients do not need to transfer back and forth, they receive treatment in a relatively familiar environment, which can also reduce patients' fear and tension about unfamiliar equipment. Therefore, patients can receive examinations and treatments more relaxed, which is beneficial to improving the doctor's treatment effect.

[0018] 3. Through the CT interlocking system, the sitting dental chair and the dental imaging equipment are interlocked to form a horizontal dental chair. At this time, the patient can lie on the dental chair for dental imaging scanning. Therefore, compared with the patient sitting on the dental chair for examination, the horizontal examination can reduce motion artifacts and provide doctors with clearer and more accurate imaging data, which is convenient for doctors to diagnose. Doctors can understand the patient's condition more accurately, facilitate the formulation of a more scientific and reasonable treatment plan, and improve the accuracy of diagnosis and the effect of treatment. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0019] Figure 1 It is a structural block diagram of the interlocking system of the present invention; Figure 2 It is a functional schematic block diagram of the interlocking system of the present invention; Figure 3 It is a flowchart of the interlocking method of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0020] To make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of them.

[0021] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment provides a CT interlocking system, including an in-position sensor, an anti-collision sensor, a control circuit board and a communication module.

[0022] When the patient enters the consulting room for a CBCT examination, the position sensor can detect parameters such as the height, angle and horizontal position of the dental chair, so as to determine whether the dental chair is in the position required for CT scanning, thereby preventing the position of the dental chair from deviating, resulting in blurred or distorted images or failure to accurately capture key dental structure information. After the scanning examination is completed, the diagnostic module can be detected and returned to the initial position to prepare for the next examination or other operations.

[0023] The C-arm carrying the X-ray tube and detector will rotate and translate around the patient's head during the shooting process to obtain clear images at different angles. During this process, the anti-collision sensor can continuously monitor the distance between the C-arm and the dental chair or the patient, ensuring that the C-arm and the dental chair or the patient are at a safe distance, preventing the patient from touching the C-arm when moving his head or body slightly on the dental chair, thereby improving the safety of the examination.

[0024] The control circuit board can receive and process the signals from the in-position sensor and the anti-collision sensor. It should be noted that the control circuit board also includes: a microprocessor, a memory and an input-output interface. The microprocessor is responsible for running the control program, conducting in-depth analysis and accurate judgment of the sensor signals, and issuing corresponding control instructions according to the judgment results. The memory can store important information such as the parameters and operating status of the storage device so that it can be quickly queried and adjusted when needed. The input-output interface is used to connect sensors, communication modules and other external devices to ensure smooth transmission and interaction of information.

[0025] Through the communication module, the processed signals received by the control circuit board can communicate with the control device of the dental imaging equipment, as well as with the dental chair. In dental CBCT, the communication module usually adopts wired or wireless communication methods, such as Ethernet, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, etc. These advanced communication methods improve the stable transmission and rapid response of signals. Through the communication module, the interlocking device can transmit the signals of the in-place sensor and the anti-collision sensor to the control device in real time, so that the control device can understand the status of the dental chair and C-arm in time and make accurate decisions. At the same time, the communication module can also receive instructions from the control device to accurately control the dental chair and the diagnostic module, thereby improving the coordinated operation efficiency of the entire system.

[0026] In addition, the in-place sensor, anti-collision sensor and the control device of the dental imaging equipment communicate through IO, and the communication module is connected to the control device of the dental imaging equipment; it is used to realize the communication function between the interlocking device and the diagnostic module, and the communication function between the interlocking device and the dental chair. The enable signal can be transmitted between the interlocking device and the dental chair through communication, which is used to lock the movement of the dental chair during shooting.

[0027] like Figure 3 As shown, the present application also discloses a CT interlocking method, comprising the following steps: S10, S20, S30 and S40; S10: Before shooting, the operator places the patient on the dental chair and adjusts the position of the dental chair; Specifically, before shooting, the doctor or operator places the patient on the dental chair and adjusts the position of the dental chair to meet the requirements of CT shooting. Because the position of the dental chair is related to the quality of the image and the safety of the patient, the in-place sensor will detect parameters such as the height, angle and horizontal position of the dental chair, thereby preventing the position of the dental chair from deviating from the dental imaging equipment, and there is no need for the doctor or operator to perform manual inspection, which not only saves time and manpower and improves work efficiency, but also avoids problems such as blurred or distorted images or inability to accurately capture key tooth structure information during the shooting process.

[0028] S20: The in-position sensor detects the position of the dental chair to determine whether the dental chair is in the position required for CT scanning, and then performs scanning; Specifically, if the dental chair position parameters detected by the in-place sensor deviate from the preset parameters of the in-place sensor, it means that the position of the dental chair is incorrect. At this time, the in-place sensor will send a signal to remind the doctor or operator to adjust the dental chair, and this adjustment process may need to be repeated many times until the position of the dental chair fully meets the shooting requirements, thereby preventing the position of the dental chair from deviating from the dental imaging device, thereby avoiding image blur, distortion or inability to accurately capture key dental structure information during the shooting process; and when the dental chair position parameters detected by the in-place sensor are the same as its preset parameters, the in-place sensor will transmit the signal to the control circuit board. After receiving the signal, the control circuit board will send a signal to the control device of the dental imaging device through the communication module. After receiving the signal, the control device will send an unlocking signal to the diagnostic module and a prohibition signal to the dental chair to prevent the dental chair from shifting, thereby enabling the dental chair to remain stable during the shooting process. At this time, the diagnostic module is unlocked, allowing the diagnostic module to prepare, thereby facilitating subsequent adjustment of the position of the C-arm, setting of shooting parameters, etc.

[0029] S30: During the shooting process, the anti-collision sensor continuously monitors the distance between the C-arm and the dental chair or patient to ensure that the C-arm is at a safe distance from the dental chair or patient; Specifically, during the shooting process, the anti-collision sensor will continuously monitor the distance between the C-arm and the dental chair or patient. When the distance between the C-arm and the dental chair or patient is lower than the preset value set by the anti-collision sensor, it means that the distance between the C-arm and the dental chair or patient is too close, and there may be a risk of collision. At this time, the diagnostic module will immediately start the rotary motor and the translation motor to drive the C-arm to move away from the dental chair or patient for intelligent avoidance. This intelligent avoidance function is based on advanced sensor technology and motor control technology. It does not require real-time observation by doctors or operators, so that they can react instantly to ensure the safety of patients and the normal operation of equipment. It can effectively avoid collisions, protect the safety of patients, and ensure the normal operation of equipment. In this way, the shooting process can be guaranteed to proceed smoothly, thereby obtaining high-quality images.

[0030] S40: After the shooting is completed, the dental chair resumes its normal movement and adjustment functions, and the patient leaves the dental chair; Specifically, when the shooting is completed, the diagnosis module will automatically return to the initial position. This process is automatically controlled by an advanced control system and does not require manual operation by doctors or operators. These automated control functions allow doctors and operators to focus more on the diagnosis and treatment of patients, improving work efficiency. At this time, the in-place sensor will detect again whether the diagnosis module has returned correctly. If the diagnosis module has returned correctly, the in-place sensor will transmit the signal to the control circuit board. After receiving the signal, the control circuit board will send a signal to the control device of the dental imaging equipment through the communication module. After receiving the signal, the control device will send a locking function signal to the diagnosis module and an unlocking signal to the dental chair. Therefore, after the shooting is completed, the diagnosis module can be locked and will not be accidentally started to drive the C-arm to move. At the same time, the dental chair is unlocked so that the dental chair can resume normal movement and adjustment functions, making it convenient for patients to leave the dental chair or perform other operations, thereby ensuring the safety and stability of the entire system.

[0031] The present application also discloses an electronic device, comprising: a memory storing execution instructions; and The processor executes the execution instruction stored in the memory, so that the processor executes the CT interlocking method of any one of the above embodiments.

[0032] The present application also discloses a readable storage medium, in which execution instructions are stored. When the execution instructions are executed by a processor, they are used to implement the CT interlocking method of any of the above-mentioned implementation modes.

[0033] The present application also discloses a computer program product, including a computer program / instruction, characterized in that when the computer program / instruction is executed by a processor, it is used to implement the CT interlocking method of any of the above-mentioned embodiments.

[0034] In summary, the present application uses the above-mentioned CT interlocking system to facilitate the dental imaging equipment in the prior art to be interlocked with dental chairs of any brand, which not only saves the space occupied by the equipment, but also reduces the purchase cost of the equipment, and improves the adaptability and versatility of the dental imaging equipment; and also ensures that the position of the dental chair is accurate and stable after the dental chair and the dental imaging equipment are interlocked, providing a solid foundation for the shooting quality of dental CBCT; the accurate position of the dental chair can also ensure that the patient's teeth are in the best shooting position, so that the X-rays can accurately penetrate the teeth and surrounding tissues to obtain clear and accurate images; a stable dental chair can avoid image blur or distortion caused by the movement of the dental chair during the shooting process; therefore, the coordinated work of the in-place sensor and the control circuit board of the interlocking device ensures the accurate and stable position of the dental chair, providing a guarantee for high-quality image shooting.

[0035] In addition, the anti-collision sensors in the interlocking system and the intelligent avoidance function of the diagnostic device can effectively avoid collisions and protect the safety of patients, while also ensuring the normal operation of the equipment, thereby ensuring the smooth progress of the shooting process and obtaining high-quality images; this real-time safety monitoring and protection function can make patients feel more at ease when undergoing dental CBCT examinations. Patients do not need to worry about accidents and can accept the examination more relaxedly, which improves the comfort and satisfaction of patients.

[0036] Moreover, other components of the interlocking system, such as in-place sensors, control circuit boards and communication modules, also play an important role in ensuring patient safety. In-place sensors ensure the accurate position of the dental chair to avoid patient discomfort or safety issues caused by improper positioning. The coordinated work of the control circuit board and the communication module ensures the stable operation of the entire system and reduces the risk of equipment failure, thereby providing patients with a safer examination environment. The interlocking system can also optimize the workflow of dental CBCT. Through the rapid information transmission and interaction of the communication module, the doctor can remotely control the operation of the dental chair and diagnostic module in the control room without having to operate it in person in the examination room. This not only improves work efficiency, but also reduces the risk of doctors and patients being exposed to X-ray radiation. At the same time, the stable operation and accurate control of the interlocking system can reduce the number of repeated shots, improve image quality, and further optimize the workflow.

[0037] It should be noted that the technical solution of the present application can also bring substantial benefits to clinics, patients and doctors, achieving a win-win-win effect for clinics, patients and doctors; among them, for clinics, it saves space and money and improves equipment utilization; for patients, it is more comfortable and convenient to receive one-stop diagnosis and treatment while lying down, and supine photography reduces motion artifacts and facilitates doctors' diagnosis; for doctors, convenient diagnosis improves efficiency and enhances the quality of medical services; therefore, the emergence of the interlocking system has brought new development opportunities to the field of dental diagnosis and treatment and promoted the continuous advancement of dental diagnosis and treatment technology.

[0038] Specifically, for clinics: the most direct benefit of the interlocking system is saving space and money; small clinics usually have limited space, and every inch of space needs to be used reasonably; traditional dental imaging equipment with its own scanning bed is bulky and requires a dedicated space to be placed, which will undoubtedly take up a lot of space resources in the clinic; with the interlocking system, the clinic can use the existing dental chair as a scanning bed, and there is no need to set aside a separate space for the huge equipment, which greatly saves the clinic's usable area.

[0039] At the same time, from the financial perspective, dental imaging equipment with its own scanning bed is very expensive, and the purchase of such equipment requires a large investment by the clinic. However, through the interlocking system, the clinic can use relatively low-priced dental imaging equipment, combined with the existing dental chair, to achieve the same function. This undoubtedly saves a lot of money for the clinic, reduces the equipment investment cost, and allows the clinic to use more funds to improve the quality of medical services and expand the scope of business; Moreover, the interlocking system can also improve the utilization rate of clinic equipment. Without the interlocking system, the clinic may need to purchase special dental imaging equipment and dental chairs, and these equipment may be idle at some time, resulting in low equipment utilization. With the interlocking system, the clinic can combine the existing dental chairs with dental imaging equipment to achieve multi-purpose use of one machine, greatly improving the utilization rate of equipment. For example, when there are fewer patients, the dental chair can be used for routine dental treatment, and when a dental imaging examination is required, the dental chair can quickly transform into a scanning bed and be used in conjunction with dental imaging equipment to provide patients with one-stop diagnosis and treatment services.

[0040] For patients: For patients, one of the biggest benefits of the interlocking system is that they can receive one-stop diagnosis and treatment while lying down. In traditional dental treatment, patients may need to run back and forth between different equipment for various examinations and treatments. With the interlocking system, patients can lie on the dental chair and receive dental imaging examinations and treatments directly next to the dental chair without having to transfer to other equipment. This greatly reduces the patients' running and waiting time and improves the patients' medical experience.

[0041] One-stop diagnosis and treatment also allows patients to receive treatment in a relatively familiar and comfortable environment, reducing their fear and nervousness about unfamiliar equipment. Patients can receive examinations and treatments from doctors more relaxedly, which helps doctors better understand the patient's condition and develop more accurate treatment plans.

[0042] The interlocking system combines an ordinary dental chair with dental imaging equipment, allowing patients to lie on the dental chair for filming and examination. Therefore, the supine filming brought by the interlocking system also brings many benefits to patients. Traditional sitting filming may cause motion artifacts due to the patient's body shaking or unconscious movement, affecting the doctor's diagnostic accuracy. Supine filming can make the patient's body more stable and reduce unnecessary movement, thereby greatly reducing the generation of motion artifacts, providing doctors with clearer and more accurate imaging data, and facilitating doctors' diagnosis.

[0043] In addition, supine shooting is more friendly to some patients with physical disabilities. For example, for patients with limited mobility, the elderly or patients with certain diseases, lying down for examination is more comfortable and safer than sitting. The emergence of the interlocking system allows these patients to easily undergo dental imaging examinations, which facilitates their disease diagnosis and treatment.

[0044] For doctors: The emergence of the interlocking system also brings many benefits. The supine shooting method reduces motion artifacts and provides doctors with clearer and more accurate imaging data, which facilitates doctors' diagnosis. Doctors can understand the patient's condition more accurately and develop a more scientific and reasonable treatment plan, which improves the accuracy of diagnosis and the effectiveness of treatment.

[0045] One-stop diagnosis and treatment also improves the work efficiency of doctors. Doctors can complete patient examinations and treatments in the same place without having to run back and forth between different equipment, saving time and energy. At the same time, doctors can communicate and interact with patients more conveniently, understand their needs and feelings, and provide patients with more personalized medical services.

[0046] The emergence of the interlocking system can also improve the quality of medical services in clinics. Clinics can use more advanced dental imaging equipment and one-stop diagnosis and treatment services to provide patients with better-quality and more efficient medical services, thereby attracting more patients to come for treatment. At the same time, doctors can also improve their professional level and quality of medical services by constantly learning and mastering new technologies and equipment, thereby safeguarding the health of patients.

[0047] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the present invention and are not intended to limit the technical solutions described in the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, the present invention is not limited to the above specific implementation methods. Therefore, any modification or equivalent replacement of the present invention; all technical solutions and improvements that do not depart from the spirit and scope of the invention are included in the scope of the claims of the present invention.
