Cardiac and or respiratory gated image acquisition system and method for virtual anatomy enriched real time 2d imaging in interventional radiofrequency ablation or pace maker replacement procecure

The present invention refers to the field of cardiac electrophysiology (EP) and, more specifically, to image-guided radio frequency ablation and pacemaker placement procedures. For those procedures, it is proposed to display the overlaid 2D navigation motions of an interventional tool intraoperatively obtained from the same projection angle for tracking navigation motions of an interventional tool during an image-guided intervention procedure while being navigated through a patient's bifurcated coronary vessel or cardiac chambers anatomy in order to guide e.g. a cardiovascular catheter to a target structure or lesion in a cardiac vessel segment of the patient's coronary venous tree or to a region of interest within the myocard. In such a way, a dynamically enriched 2D reconstruction of the patient's anatomy is obtained while moving the interventional instrument. By applying a cardiac and / or respiratory gating technique, it can be provided that the 2D live images are acquired during the same phases of the patient's cardiac and / or respiratory cycles. Compared to prior-art solutions which are based on a registration and fusion of image data independently acquired by two distinct imaging modalities, the accuracy of the two-dimensionally reconstructed anatomy is significantly enhanced.

Determination of an analyte in a liquid medium

Electrochemical determination of the presence, and optionally concentration of an analyte utilizes an electrode having immobilized thereon one member of a recognition pair, the recognition pair consisting of said analyte. In the presence of the analyte medium pair complexes, which are complexes between the analyte and the immobilized member are formed. The electrode forms part of an electrochemical system which includes also redox molecules comprising at least one first redox molecule and at least one second redox molecule, the former transferring electrons between the electrode and the latter. Upon formation of a pair complex the electron transfer is inhibited and the change in the electrical response then indicates the presence of said analyte in the medium.

Flexible, high performance support for QoS on an arbitrary number of queues

A VTMS queue scheduler integrates traffic shaping and link sharing functions within a single mechanism and that scales to an arbitrary number of queues of an intermediate station in a computer network. The scheduler assigns committed information bit rate and excess information bit rate values per queue, along with a shaped maximum bit rate per media link of the station. The integration of shaping and sharing functions decreases latency-induced inaccuracies by eliminating a queue and feedback mechanism between the sharing and shaping functions of conventional systems.

Firearm hammer with adjustable spur

A firearm hammer has a hammer body with a hammer pivot axis for attachment to a firearm frame. A spur is connected to the hammer body, and the spur is movable among a number of positions with respect to the hammer body. The spur may be attached in a standard position in which it extends within the medial plane of the hammer body for use without a scope, or offset positions in which it angles away from the medial plane to provide accessibility. The offset angle may be 45 degrees, and a mating feature may provide the several attachment positions, each secure against movement except by deliberate removal of a fastener.

Image processing system

A computer graphics generation system combines video images of a scene captured by a camera with one or more rendered computer generated objects. The system comprises a camera which is arranged to generate an image signal representative of a scene including a reference object of a predetermined shape, and an image processor. The image processor is arranged in operation to identify the reference object from the image signal, to detect a luminance distribution across a surface of the reference object by estimating a luminance magnitude at a plurality of surface points on the surface of the reference object, and to estimate a direction of light incident on the reference object derived from the detected luminance distribution across the surface of the reference object by calculating the average of a plurality of luminance vectors, each luminance vector corresponding to one of the surface points and comprising a luminance magnitude of the corresponding surface point and a luminance direction corresponding to a direction perpendicular to the surface at the corresponding surface point, wherein the luminance distribution across the surface of the reference object is detected for luminance above a threshold clipping level. Accordingly a reduction in the “wobble” of the computer generated objects in the scene can be achieved and a more stable image provided from the image light direction estimation.
