    Abstract: An apparatus (1) for use in conjunction with a medical imaging device (2) having an imaging device controller (4) that displays a graphical user interface (GUI) (8) including a preview image viewport (9). The apparatus includes at least one electronic processor (20) programmed to: receive a video feed (17) of the GUI displayed on the imaging device controller; extract a preview image (12) displayed in the preview image viewport from the live video feed of the GUI; perform an image analysis (38) on the extracted preview image to detect one or more image features (42) indicative of one or more potential problems associated with a medical imaging examination performed with the medical imaging device; and output an alert (30) when one or more potential problems associated with the medical imaging examination is detected from the one or more image features.

    Abstract: An imaging system (10) includes: an image acquisition device (12), a device controller (16) comprising an electronic processor (20) programmed to operate the image acquisition device to acquire medical images of a patient and to maintain a machine log (26) storing an operating history of the image acquisition device; a server computer (34) programmed to retrieve patient information from at least one health information system (HIS) (18); and at least one feedback device (50, 52). The device controller, the server computer, or a combination of the device controller and server computer is programmed to implement at least one state machine (30, 44) having a plurality of states defined by values of state variables wherein the states represent respective attainable states of an image acquisition procedure (100) and the image acquisition device. The at least one state machine is configured to transition between states during the image acquisition procedure whereby the at least one state machine represents a current state of the image acquisition procedure and the image acquisition device, wherein the values of the state variables of the at least one state machine are determined based at least on content of the machine log for the image acquisition device and patient information retrieved by the server computer from the at least one HIS. The at least one feedback device is configured to provide guidance to an operator for performing the image acquisition procedure based on a current state of the at least one state machine.

    Abstract: A non-transitory computer readable medium (26s) stores instructions readable and executable by at least one electronic processor (14s) to perform a method (100) managing a schedule (42) of a medical professional. The method includes maintaining a schedule of tasks for the medical professional, the schedule including time intervals (44) with planned tasks; maintaining or receiving other schedules of tasks for others that interact with the medical professional; computing a likelihood of interruption of the medical professional as a function of time from the maintained or received other schedules; and outputting, on a display device (24, 36) of an electronic processing device (12, 8) operable by the medical professional, a representation (40) of the schedule of the medical professional with an indication of the likelihood of interruption as a function of time in the schedule.
