Radiological image detection apparatus, radiographic apparatus and radiographic system
InactiveUS20120163554A1Reduce scattered radiationReduce radiationMusculoskeletal system evaluationRadiation/particle handlingImage detectionGrating pattern
A radiological image detection apparatus includes a first grating unit, a grating pattern unit, a radiological image detector, and an anti-scatter grating. The grating pattern unit has a period that substantially coincides with a pattern period of a radiological image formed by radiation having passed through the first grating unit. The radiological image detector detects the radiological image masked by the grating pattern unit. The anti-scatter grating is arranged on a path of the radiation incident onto the radiological image detector and removes scattered radiation. A smoothing process is performed for at least one of a surface and a backside of the anti-scatter grating intersecting with a traveling direction of the radiation.

Method and Apparatus for an Implantable Inertial-Based Sensing System for Real-Time, In Vivo Detection of Spinal Pseudarthrosis and Adjacent Segment Motion
InactiveUS20110295159A1Extended range of motionRange of motionMusculoskeletal system evaluationInternal osteosythesisAccelerometerIn vivo
A vertebral processor designed to collect and interpret data from multiple surgically implanted accelerometers. Each accelerometer is surgically implanted into a vertebra of a patient utilizing a bone screw. Additional accelerometers are implanted in adjacent vertebrae. The data from the accelerometers is compared by an algorithm to determine the relative movement of the accelerometers implanted in adjacent vertebrae. Data is generated via the algorithm and compared against the expected behavior of the surgically implanted accelerometers as if they were connected to a rigid body, thus determining the level of success of a spinal fusion procedure for those adjacent segments. The apparatus may be utilized with or without spinal stabilization hardware, and with or without fusion cages or artificial discs. The vertebral processor is supplemented by an external system worn by the patient, which provides for an inductive charging power source and for data transfer.

At least partial function of a human limb is restored by surgically removing at least a portion of an injured or diseased human limb from a surgical site of an individual and transplanting a selected muscle into the remaining biological body of the individual, followed by contacting the transplanted selected muscle, or an associated nerve, with an electrode, to thereby control a device, such as a prosthetic limb, linked to the electrode. Simulating proprioceptive sensory feedback from a device includes mechanically linking at least one pair of agonist and antagonist muscles, wherein a nerve innervates each muscle, and supporting each pair with a support, whereby contraction of the agonist muscle of each pair will cause extension of the paired antagonist muscle. An electrode is implanted in a muscle of each pair and electrically connected to a motor controller of the device, thereby simulating proprioceptive sensory feedback from the device.

Noninvasive determination of cardiac health and other functional states and trends for human physiological systems
InactiveCN107205667AAvoid dying fromGood for healthAcoustic sensorsBathroom coversMathematical modelCvd risk
This document describes the assessment of human physiological systems in a manner that can be applied throughout the population. Various noninvasive sensors (including wearable, passive contact and noncontact sensors) may be integrated into the furniture of a person's home (including a mat, a toilet-seat, a mirror and a bathtub). They can be used to detect vitals and other parameters and combined with mathematical models to assess the functional state of physiological systems. For example, the health of the cardiovascular system is ultimately determined by organ blood perfusion and molecular gas exchange. In lieu of measuring these functional metrics directly, noninvasive sensors are used to monitor cardiac pressures and volumes, along with pressure transit through the vascular to quantify cardiovascular health, presenting little if any risk to the person and are simple and easy to use. In particular, cardiac pressure-volume loops are determined at different points in time and a health trend for the physiological system is determined based thereon.
