Endoscope having a guide tube

InactiveUS6837846B2Facilitates advancement and withdrawalPreventing tissue from being pinchedGuide needlesCannulasDistal portionBiomedical engineering
An endoscope having a guide tube is described herein. The assembly has an endoscope which is slidably insertable within the lumen of a guide tube. The guide tube is configured to be rigidizable along its entire length from a relaxed configuration. The endoscope has a steerable distal portion to facilitate the steering of the device through tortuous paths. In the relaxed configuration, a portion of the guide tube is able to assume the shape or curve defined by the controllable distal portion of the endoscope. Having assumed the shape or curve of the endoscope, the guide tube may be rigidized by the physician or surgeon to maintain that shape or curve while the endoscope is advanced distally through the tortuous path without having to place any undue pressure against the tissue walls.

Gas-scrubbed hollow fiber membrane module

A method and apparatus for removing fouling materials from the surface of a plurality of porous membranes (9) arranged in a membrane module (4) by providing, from within the module, by means (10) other than gas passing through the pores of said membranes, gas bubbles in a uniform distribution relative to the porous membrane array such that the bubbles move past the surfaces of the membranes (9) to dislodge fouling materials therefrom. The membranes (9) are arranged in close proximity to one another and mounted to prevent excessive movement therebetween. The bubbles also produce vibration and rubbing together of the membranes to further assist removal of fouling materials.

RNA interference mediated inhibition of gene expression using short interfering nucleic acid (siNA)

This invention relates to compounds, compositions, and methods useful for modulating gene expression using short interfering nucleic acid (siNA) molecules. In particular, the instant invention features small nucleic acid molecules, such as short interfering nucleic acid (siNA), short interfering RNA (siRNA), double-stranded RNA (dsRNA), micro-RNA (miRNA), and short hairpin RNA (shRNA) molecules and methods used to modulate the expression of genes, such as expressed pseudogenes associated with the maintenance or development of diseases, disorders, traits, and conditions in a subject or organism. The invention also provides small nucleic acid molecules with reduced or attenuated immunostimulatory properties and methods for designing and synthesizing such small nucleic acid molecules having improved toxicologic properties while retaining RNAi activity.

Apparatus and Method for Using Augmented Reality Vision System in Surgical Procedures

A system and method for improving a surgeon's vision by overlaying augmented reality information onto a video image of the surgical site. A high definition video camera sends a video image in real time. Prior to the surgery, a pre-operative image is created from MRI, x-ray, ultrasound, or other method of diagnosis using imaging technology. The pre-operative image is stored within the computer. The computer processes the pre-operative image to decipher organs, anatomical geometries, vessels, tissue planes, orientation, and other structures. As the surgeon performs the surgery, the AR controller augments the real time video image with the processed pre-operative image and displays the augmented image on an interface to provide further guidance to the surgeon during the surgical procedure.

Food processing machine with electric sucking pump and method for vacuumizing to produce foodstuff liquid

The invention relates to a food processing machine with an electric sucking pump and a method for vacuumizing to produce foodstuff liquid. The food processing machine comprises a crushing cutter device, a machine head or a machine base, a motor, a barrel and a control circuit board, wherein the barrel is provided with a sealing device, has or does not have a heating device. An electric sucking pump is arranged on the machine head, the machine base, the sealing device, the barrel or a barrel handle of the food processing machine, the sucking port of the electric sucking pump is positioned in the barrel and above the foodstuff liquid level, the exhaust port of the electric sucking pump is communicated with the outer part of the barrel; and the electric power source of the electric sucking pump is an independent motor, an electromagnetic vibration device, a piezoelectric ceramic vibration device or the crushing cutter device of the food processing machine. A sealing mode is adopted to seal the barrel of the food processing machine, the electric sucking pump is used to pump air out of the barrel, then crushing and heating are carried out to crush and heat the foodstuff in the barrel of the food processing machine under the vacuum condition, the oxidation of the foodstuff liquid is greatly reduced and avoided for the crushing and heating processes, so the nutritive loss is reduced, and the good taste and appearance color are kept.
