MRI Video Display System for Patient Anxiety Reduction
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current medical image diagnostic systems do not effectively display videos to subjects based on their vital information during examinations, leading to potential anxiety and discomfort due to prolonged exposure in confined spaces, and lack communication tools to confirm the subject's intention to continue the examination.
Innovation Solution
A medical image diagnostic system comprising a video display device, vital information detection device, and processor that acquires and responds to vital information by displaying specific videos to the subject, including the operator's video when necessary, to reduce psychological burden and facilitate communication through voice and intention detection.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Manufacturing precision
If the examination time is extended to ensure complete imaging, then the imaging quality is improved, but the subject's psychological burden and physical discomfort increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system continuously monitors the subject's vital information (heart rate, respiratory rate, body temperature) during the examination and uses this feedback to dynamically adjust the video content displayed to the subject. When vital signs indicate stress or discomfort, the system responds by changing the video display to alleviate the subject's psychological burden, thereby maintaining examination quality while reducing harmful effects.
Solution Approach 2:
A video display system acts as an intermediary between the monitoring system and the subject. The video content serves as a mediating element that can be adjusted based on the subject's state, providing psychological comfort and reducing anxiety without interfering with the imaging process. This intermediary mechanism allows the system to address the subject's discomfort while maintaining the necessary examination duration.
2Reliability
If the subject is monitored continuously to ensure safety, then the safety is improved, but the complexity of the system increases
Solution Approach 1:
The monitoring system is integrated into the existing examination workflow, with the same processor controlling both the imaging operations and the video display adjustments. The video display device serves multiple functions: providing psychological comfort to the subject, monitoring the subject's state through vital information feedback, and communicating with the operator. This multi-functionality reduces the need for separate dedicated safety monitoring equipment, thereby limiting the increase in system complexity.
3Measurement precision
If the operator focuses on the operation screen to ensure precise control, then the control precision is improved, but the operator's ability to notice changes in the subject decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The system provides automated feedback to the operator about the subject's vital information and state changes. The processor analyzes the vital information data and communicates relevant information to the operator, ensuring the operator is informed about the subject's condition without requiring constant visual monitoring. This feedback mechanism maintains operator awareness while allowing focused control work.
Solution Approach 2:
The video display system serves as an intermediary that bridges the operator and the subject. While the operator focuses on the operation screen for precise control, the video display provides visual information about the subject's state and any anomalies detected by the monitoring system. This intermediary ensures the operator receives necessary information about the subject's condition without breaking concentration on the control tasks.

AI summary
Provided are a medical image diagnostic system, an operation method of a medical image diagnostic system, and a video display system which can display a video for a subject during an examination using an image diagnostic apparatus based on vital information of the subject. A medical image diagnostic system includes a projector that displays a video in an aspect visible to a subject during an MRI examination in a bore, a vital information detection device that detects vital information of the subject during the examination, and a processor, in which the processor acquires the vital information from the vital information detection device, and causes the projector to perform projection display of a predetermined video based on the acquired vital information.
