An embodiment in accordance with the present invention provides a method for non-invasively determining the functional severity of coronary artery stenosis. The method includes gathering patient-specific data related to concentration of a contrast agent within a coronary artery of a patient using a coronary computed tomography angiography scan (CCTA). The patient-specific data is used to calculate a patient-specific transarterial attenuation gradient for the coronary artery of the patient. The patient specific transarterial attenuation gradient is compared to previously collected data to determine an estimate of a pressure gradient and/or fractional flow reserve (FFR) for the patient. As more data is collected, the data can be added to the database in order to increase the accuracy of future assessments. The database can also be enhanced by adding data generated by canonical models and mathematical analysis.

Photopolymer printing plates having a dimpled printing surface

Номер: CA2036424A1
Автор: Albert C. Chiang
Принадлежит: Pitney Bowes Inc

ABSTRACT The present invention provides a photopolymer printing plate for use in flexographic printing wherein the photopolymer relief structure is composed of printing characters of uniform printing height, the planar printing surfaces of which characters contain a plurality of well-like dimples or depressions present at a density within the range of from about 25 to about 500 depressions per linear inch of planar printing surface. The invention also provides a process for preparing such photopolymer plates by exposing the photopolymer layer to actinic radiation through a photographic mask containing optically transparent areas and optically opaque image areas, the transparent areas of said mask characterized by the presence of a plurality of opaque discrete dots or other geometric shapes present at a density of from about 25 to about 500 dots per linear inch. These dots serve to block a portion of the light passing through the transparent areas of the mask thereby forming discrete regions in the underlying photopolymer layer which are not exposed or are only partially exposed. Upon development of the plate, the regions of the photopolymer layer underlying the dot pattern are removed resulting in the formation of a plurality of depressions in the relief planar surface of the exposed portions of the photopolymer layer. Upon the application of printing ink to the relief printing surface of the plates of this invention, the depressions on the relief surface act as ink reservoirs resulting in the application of a more even distribution of ink to surfaces to be printed, particularly where large solid areas are printed.

Imaging toolbox for guiding cardiac resynchronization therapy implantation from patient-specific imaging and body surface potential mapping data

Номер: US10959618B2
Принадлежит: JOHNS HOPKINS UNIVERSITY

The present invention is directed to a method for combining assessment of different factors of dyssynchrony into a comprehensive, non-invasive toolbox for treating patients with a CRT therapy device. The toolbox provides high spatial resolution, enabling assessment of regional function, as well as enabling derivation of global metrics to improve patient response and selection for CRT therapy. The method allows for quantitative assessment and estimation of mechanical contraction patterns, tissue viability, and venous anatomy from CT scans combined with electrical activation patterns from Body Surface Potential Mapping (BSPM). This multi-modal method is therefore capable of integrating electrical, mechanical, and structural information about cardiac structure and function in order to guide lead placement of CRT therapy devices. The method generates regional electro-mechanical properties overlaid with cardiac venous distribution and scar tissue. The fusion algorithm for combining all of the data suggests cardiac segments and routes for implantation of epicardial pacing leads.

Dry solid carbonaceous material is partially combusted, then pyrolysed along with a first slurry stream comprising carbonaceous ma-terial in two separate reactor sections, thereby producing mix-ture products comprising synthesis gas. The second slurry stream comprising particulate carbonaceous material is fed to a drying unit downstream of a heat recovery zone along with the mixture product exiting the heat recovery zone. The result-ing final temperature of the second stage mixture products and dried particulate carbonaceous material is between 450° and 550°F, a temperature range that is typically not conducive to the emission of heavy molecular-weight tar species.

Принадлежит: Boston Scientific Ltd Barbados

【課題】内視鏡には、良い進路誘導、追跡性、操作者との優れたインターフェース、内腔組織に対する摩擦力低下によるアクセス向上、患者の快適度の増加、などが求められている。 【解決手段】内視鏡画像システムは、制御キャビネットに接続可能な軽量内視鏡の方向付けを制御するいくつかのアクチュエータを有する再利用可能な制御キャビネットを含む。この内視鏡は一人の患者に対して使用、配置される。この内視鏡は照明機構、イメージセンサー、および内部に設置された一つ以上の穴を有する長形軸を含む。内視鏡の遠位端の関節ジョイントにより、遠位端が制御キャビネット内のアクチュエータにより方向付けられる。内視鏡は摩擦係数を減少させる親水性コーティングで被覆され、軽量なため、患者内部の所望位置に内視鏡を前進させる力がより少ない。 【選択図】図3C

Method and apparatus for creating soil or rock subsurface support

Номер: CA2591617C
Принадлежит: Individual

A subsurface support is provided in the form of a soil nail. The soil nail has asperities formed on the outer surface thereof to improve the pullout capacity of the soil nail. The asperities can take a number of forms to include indentations, deformations and threads formed on the outer surface of the soil nail. Optionally, a stinger may be attached to a distal end of the soil nail to further enhance the pullout capacity of the soil nail.

Two stage entrained gasification system and process

Номер: CA2820088A1
Принадлежит: ConocoPhillips Co

The present invention relates to a system and process for gasifying feedstock such as carbonaceous materials. The invention includes partial combustion of dry solids and pyrolysis of carbonaceous material slurry in two separate reactor sections and produce mixture products comprising synthesis gas. The invention employs one or more catalytic or sorbent bed for removing tar from the synthesis gas. The inventive system and process allow a gasification to be carried out under higher slurry feeding rate and lower temperature with the provision to manage the tar being produced, therefore to increase the conversion efficiency of the overall gasification.

Tachometer for downhole drilling motor

Номер: EP2882964A2
Принадлежит: Weatherford Lamb Inc

A tachometer for a downhole motor includes: a tubular housing having a coupling for connection to a housing of the motor; and a probe. The probe: has a coupling for connection to a rotor of the motor, is movable relative to the tachometer housing, and has at least a portion disposed in a bore of the tachometer housing. The tachometer further includes electronics disposed in the tachometer housing and including: a battery; one or more proximity sensors for tracking an orbit of the probe; and a programmable logic controller (PLC). The PLC is operable: to receive the tracked orbit, and at least one of: to determine an angular speed of the probe using the tracked orbit, and to forecast a remaining lifespan of the motor using the tracked orbit.

Val-pro containing α-keto oxadiazoles as serine protease inhibitors

Номер: US6001813A
Принадлежит: Cortech Inc

The present invention relates to certain substituted oxadiazole tripeptides, which are useful as inhibitors of human neutrophil elastase (HNE) for the treatment of HNE-mediated processes implicated in conditions such as adult respiratory distress syndrome, septic shock and multiple organ failure. A series of studies also have indicated the involvement HNE in myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury, emphysema. HNE-mediated processes are implicated in other conditions such as arthritis, periodontal disease, glomerulonephritis, dermatitis, psoriasis, cystic fibrosis, chronic bronchitis, atherosclerosis, Alzheimer's disease, organ transplantation, corneal ulcers, and invasion behavior of malignant tumors.
