EAR PROTECTION FOR MEDICAL IMAGING

The present disclosure relates to an ear protection system (200) for a medical imaging device. It comprises an ear protection device (210), adapted to be fitted around or in the ears of a patient (P) to be imaged, and at least comprising a first communication interface (211) and at least one sensor...

Zusammenfassung:	The present disclosure relates to an ear protection system (200) for a medical imaging device. It comprises an ear protection device (210), adapted to be fitted around or in the ears of a patient (P) to be imaged, and at least comprising a first communication interface (211) and at least one sensor device (212) adapted to determine a measurement of noise passing through the ear protection device (210) towards the ears of the patient. The system (200) further comprises a controllable signal emitter (230), adapted to output a proxy signal representing an expected imaging device noise and to be measured by the at least one sensor device (212), and a patient assistance device (220), adapted to assist the patient to fit the ear protection device (210), and at least comprising a second communication interface. During a preparation phase of the patient preceding an imaging phase using the medical imaging device, the ear protection device (210) and the patient assistance device (220) are communicatively connected to each other via the first and second communication interface, and the patient assistance device (220) generates assisting instructions to the patient depending on an evaluation of the proxy signal and the measurement of noise passing through the ear protection device (210) determined by the sensor device (212).
