Non-Invasive Method For Detecting Deep Venous Thrombosis In The Human Body
US Patent:
5282467, Feb 1, 1994
Filed:
Aug 13, 1992
Appl. No.:
7/930002
Inventors:
Claude A. Piantadosi - Durham NC
Benjamin J. Comfort - Durham NC
Neil B. Hampson - Seattle WA
Benjamin J. Comfort - Durham NC
Neil B. Hampson - Seattle WA
Assignee:
Duke University - Durham NC
International Classification:
A61B 500
US Classification:
128633
Abstract:
A non-invasive method for detecting deep venous thrombosis in a human body wherein changes are effected in the amount of deoxyhemoglobin in the body limb by trapping blood in the venous system for a determinate time period and then releasing the trapped blood in the venous system. During the period that the changes in the amount of deoxyhemoglobin are effected, first and second light sources emit light of two selected wavelengths which penetrate into the deep venous system of the body limb so that the reflectance contributions can be used to measure changes in the flow and amount of deoxyhemoglobin and to thereby detect the presence or absence of deep venous thrombosis.
Apparatus For Intravascularly Measuring Oxidative Metabolism In Body Organs And Tissues
US Patent:
5127408, Jul 7, 1992
Filed:
Sep 14, 1990
Appl. No.:
7/582756
Inventors:
William J. Parsons - Durham NC
Claude A. Piantadosi - Durham NC
Benjamin J. Comfort - Durham NC
Claude A. Piantadosi - Durham NC
Benjamin J. Comfort - Durham NC
Assignee:
Duke University - Durham NC
International Classification:
A61B 502
US Classification:
128634
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for measuring oxidative metabolism in an internal organ or tissue of interest wherein a percutaneous intravascular approach is utilized to bring a light-transmitting and receiving scope into contact with the site to be assessed. The tip of the scope is adapted so that the light-transmitting optical fiber(s) and light-receiving optical fiber(s) are in divergent relationship so as to increase the photon pathlength through the tissue of interest to provide optical information from a substantial volume of tissue relative thereto.
