Abstract

See full text

A system includes a hand-held ultrasound imaging apparatus and a portable charger. The apparatus includes imaging components, an internal power source that powers the imaging components, and at least one electrical contact in electrical communication with the internal power source. The charger includes at least one complementary electrical contact, a charge state monitor in electrical communication with the complementary at least one electrical contact, a charger circuit in electrical communication with the at least one complementary electrical contact and the charge state monitor, and an auxiliary power source in electrical communication with the charger circuit. The charge state monitor, in response to the at least one electrical contact and the at least one complementary electrical contact being in electrical communication, determines a charge state of the internal power source, and the charger circuit charges the internal power source based on the determined charge state and a charge algorithm.
