摘要:
Systems and methods for the retention and stabilization of anatomy for ultrasound imaging are described. A system can include a vessel with a flexible membrane covering an opening, a fluid pressure sensor, a pump, and a pump controller for adding and removing fluid from the vessel until an optimum fluid pressure value or range of values is achieved. A method can include identifying an optimum fluid pressure range or value for retaining a specified body part in a stable position against a flexible membrane, monitoring the pressure of fluid in a vessel having the flexible membrane covering an opening, and directing a pump to add or remove fluid until the optimum fluid pressure value or range of values is achieved.
