Improvements to the Platform for Semi-Automated Portable Cannulation System

Exclusively Licensed

A method for remote intervention for a subject includes acquiring an image of a region of interest of the subject using an interventional device positioned on the subject and an image acquisition system. The region of interest includes a target structure and the subject is located at a first site. The method further includes analyzing the acquired image using an image analysis module to identify and label the target structure in the region of interest and transmitting the labelled image from the first site to a second site for expert review. The second site is remote from the first site. The method further includes receiving a command signal at the first site from the second site where the command signal is generated based on the expert review of the labelled image and configured to control an action of the interventional device. In some embodiments, the method may further include analyzing the acquired image to determine a pathway to the vessel that avoids critical structures.
