    Abstract: A business model for facilitating the deployment of prescription validation systems into pharmacies is installed in pharmacies for little or no up-front cost to the pharmacy. Instead, the pharmacy is charged on a per use basis, that is, charged every time a prescription is validated in the system. In this way, the system vendor obtains payment on a subscription-like basis. Up-front costs at the pharmacy are avoided. Moreover, risks to a pharmacy concerning maintenance and slow productivity are avoided, or shifted onto the system owner, who is able to assess those risks.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for multi-modality data processing are provided. Some embodiments are particularly directed to interpreting gesture-based commands in a multi-modality processing system. In one embodiment, a method for interpreting user input in a medical processing system includes receiving a state designator corresponding to a mode of operation of the medical processing system, where the mode of operation includes a value representative of a modality selected from the group consisting of: IVUS, OCT, pressure, and flow. A list of active commands is generated based on the received state designator. A user input sequence is received from one or more user input devices. The medical processing system correlates the user input sequence to a command of the list of active commands, and the command is utilized to control operation of a component of the system. The list of active command may include a subset of commands common to multiple modalities.

    Abstract: The present invention generally relates to methods, systems, and apparatuses for determining the degree of improvement after a therapeutic procedure. The method can involve determining a baseline measurement prior to conducting a therapeutic procedure, conducting the therapeutic procedure, and determining a post-therapy measurement after conducting the therapeutic procedure. The method further involves comparing the post-therapy measurement to the baseline measurement, thereby determining the degree of improvement after conducting the therapeutic procedure.

    Abstract: Solid-state ultrasound imaging devices, systems, and methods are provided. Some embodiments of the present disclosure are particularly directed to identifying and removing artifacts in ultrasound data due to side lobes, grating lobes, and/or other effect. In some embodiments, an ultrasound processing system includes an interface operable to receive A-line signal data and a focusing engine operable to perform a focusing process on the received A-line signal data to produce focused A-line signal data. The ultrasound processing system also includes a coherency unit operable to determine a measurement of coherency of the received A-line signal data. The ultrasound processing system further includes an adjustment unit operable to determine an adjustment to the focused A-line signal data based on the measurement of coherency, and a compensation unit operable to apply the adjustment to the focused A-line signal data.

    Abstract: Described herein is a sensing wire for locating a blood vessel in a patient. The sensing wire comprises a hollow, rigid tube including a lumen extending from a proximal portion to a distal portion, an ultrasonic sensor coupled to the distal portion of the tube, and a communication assembly positioned at the distal portion and coupled to the ultrasound sensor. Also described is a system for accessing and evaluating a blood vessel in a patient. The system comprises an access sensor wire, an access needle sized to receive the access sensor wire, and a second sensing wire configured to be positioned within the access needle. A method is also disclosed for accessing a blood vessel with an introduction needle, where a short access sensing wire is replaced by a much longer second sensing wire after the needle is positioned in the vessel.
