Summary of the patent applications from GE Precision Healthcare LLC on November 30th, 2023

GE Precision Healthcare LLC has recently filed several patents related to medical devices and imaging systems. These patents aim to improve the accuracy, reliability, and functionality of various healthcare technologies.

Summary: - One patent application describes a gate driver circuit with an isolated gate driver power supply circuit. This circuit includes a coreless transformer and a resonance converter, allowing for independent output voltage generation. - Another patent application focuses on improving patient monitoring devices by reducing false alarms. The system includes a patient monitoring device, a processing device, and a user-interface to filter out false alarms and provide more reliable information to healthcare professionals. - A patent application discusses techniques for selecting and combining different image segmentations in medical imaging. The system uses a dynamic ranking protocol to determine the contributions of each segmentation in generating a fused segmentation for an anatomical object. - Another patent application describes the generation of neural networks specifically designed to optimize properties of medical images. The system uses a training component with a tailored loss function to control the learning adaptation of the neural network based on specific components of computed tomography (CT) data. - An incubator patent application focuses on maintaining a baby's temperature. The incubator includes a sensor to measure the baby's temperature, a temperature control device, and a computing system to determine the desired environmental temperature and trigger alarms if discrepancies occur. - A medical imaging patent application involves real-time visualization of the heart wall region during imaging. The method includes generating a local elastic image of the heart wall region and overlaying it with the original medical image. - An ultrasonic imaging system patent application allows users to provide instructions through gestures on a touch screen. The system identifies the gestures and controls the imaging system accordingly. - Another ultrasonic imaging system patent application focuses on the design of a cart for the system. The cart includes a height-adjustable column with an elevation device and a balancing unit adjustment device for easy positioning of the imaging system. - A medical device patent application involves a gantry with an X-ray tube and a table for a subject. The device determines the position of the X-ray tube based on the subject's direction and controls the tube to irradiate X-rays from that position. - An integrated filter assembly patent application aims to improve X-ray imaging quality and accuracy. The assembly includes carriages for beam hardening filters and bowtie filters, which can be selectively positioned in the path of an X-ray beam.

Notable applications: - Gate driver circuit with isolated power supply - Improved patient monitoring device with reduced false alarms - Techniques for selecting and combining image segmentations in medical imaging - Neural networks optimized for medical image properties - Incubator with temperature control and alarm system - Real-time visualization of the heart wall region during medical imaging - Ultrasonic imaging system with gesture-based instructions - Height-adjustable cart for an ultrasonic imaging system - Medical device with controlled X-ray tube position - Integrated filter assembly for improved X-ray imaging quality.
