A system for determining a treatment regimen for chronic pelvic pain (CPP) includes an electromyography (EMG) probe including electrodes. Each electrode detects pelvic floor muscle activity. An EMG sensor array includes bipolar EMG sensors configured to detect muscle activity of muscles associated with or supporting the pelvic floor muscles. An EMG amplifier is in communication with the EMG probe or the EMG sensor array. The EMG amplifier includes a plurality of input channels. Each input channel receives data of muscle activity in the pelvic floor muscles or the muscles associated with or supporting the pelvic floor muscles from the EMG probe or the EMG sensor array. A processor of a computer performs muscle network analysis using the data of muscle activity in the pelvic floor muscles or the muscles associated with or supporting the pelvic floor muscles. A treatment regimen for CPP is recommended based on the muscle network analysis.

Aspects of the technology described herein relate to enhancing ultrasound data. Some embodiments include receiving ultrasound data and automatically determining, with a processing device, that the ultrasound data depicts an anatomical view or one of a set of anatomical views. Based on automatically determining that the ultrasound data depicts the anatomical view or one of the set of anatomical views, an option is enabled to perform ultrasound data enhancement specific to the anatomical view or the set of anatomical views. Based on receiving the selection of the option, the ultrasound data, a portion thereof, and/or subsequently-collected ultrasound data is enhanced using the ultrasound data enhancement specific to the anatomical view or the set of anatomical views.

Aspects of the technology described herein relate to providing feedback a user to position an ultrasound device. Some embodiments include configuring the ultrasound device to alternate collection of ultrasound images having one image plane and collection of ultrasound images having the other image plane, and providing feedback to the user to position the ultrasound device based on the ultrasound images. In such embodiments, feedback may be provided for simultaneously centering the anatomical structure in both types of ultrasound images. Some embodiments include collecting ultrasound images having one image plane, providing feedback for centering the anatomical structure in those ultrasound images, and once the anatomical structure is centered in those ultrasound images, collecting ultrasound images having another image plane and providing feedback for centering the anatomical structure in those ultrasound images.

Aspects of the technology described herein include determining, during ultrasound imaging, that an anatomical region is clipped by a field of view of an ultrasound image, and providing a notification, during the ultrasound imaging, that the anatomical region is clipped by the field of view of the ultrasound image. Aspects of the technology described herein also include determining that an anatomical region is clipped by a field of view of at least one ultrasound image collected during a three-dimensional ultrasound imaging sweep, and providing a notification that the anatomical region is clipped by the field of view of the at least one ultrasound image collected during the three-dimensional ultrasound imaging sweep.

In conventional hybrid lasers large back refection may lead to a degradation of relative intensity noise (RIN), linewidth broadening, mode hopping, etc. To solve the aforementioned problem a hybrid laser includes a mode converter for converting a higher-back-reflection mode of the light to a mode providing less back reflection to the gain chip. The mode converter may comprise a polarization rotator, a waveguide converter, or high-order mode converter. A routing waveguide may be provided including a phase shifter, e.g. a doped waveguide, for adjusting a cavity length of the laser cavity.

Aspects of the technology described herein relate to receiving an ultrasound image, automatically determining a location of a specific point on an anatomical structure depicted in the ultrasound image, and displaying an indicator of the location of the specific point on the anatomical structure on the ultrasound image. In some embodiments, the anatomical structure is a bladder. In some embodiments, the specific point is the centroid. In some embodiments, a statistical model determines the specific point. The indicator may be, for example, a symbol located at the specific point, a horizontal line extending through the specific point from one edge of the anatomical structure to another, and/or a vertical line extending through the specific point from one edge of the anatomical structure to another.

A MOSCAP phase adjuster includes two conductive regions with a thin insulating region therebetween, where charge is accumulated or depleted. In conventional MOSCAP modulators, the conductive and insulating regions are superposed layers, extending horizontally parallel to the substrate, which limits waveguide design and mode confinement, resulting in reduced phase shift performance. An improved MOSCAP phase adjuster and method of fabricating a MOSCAP phase adjuster includes depositing the material for the second conductive region beside and over top of the first conductive region after oxidation, and selectively etching the material to form the second conductive region.
