Polychronic Digital Radiography Detector With Patterned Mask For Single-Exposure Energy-Sensitive X-Ray Imaging

US Patent:
7426260, Sep 16, 2008
Filed:
Oct 14, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/250867
Inventors:
Gary R. Cantu - San Carlos CA, US
Brian P. Wilfley - Los Altos CA, US
Joseph A. Heanue - Palo Alto CA, US
Assignee:
Eklin Medical Systems, Inc. - Santa Clara CA
International Classification:
G21K 3/00
US Classification:
378 988, 378156, 378 20, 25037011
Abstract:
A digital radiography system, having: a pixilated optical detector; and a mask positioned adjacent to the pixilated optical detector, the mask comprising a repeating pattern of first and second portions configured to pass different wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation therethrough such that a polychromic X-ray image can be taken using only a single X-ray exposure with a single imaging detector.

Integrated Segmented Scintillation Detector

US Patent:
7560703, Jul 14, 2009
Filed:
Jul 2, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/772301
Inventors:
David A. Soltz - San Jose CA, US
Ye Yang - Fremont CA, US
Mark C. Lin - San Jose CA, US
Laurence S. Horndon - Santa Clara CA, US
Edward G. Solomon - Menlo Park CA, US
Joseph A. Heanue - Palo Alto CA, US
John F. Heanue - Manchester MA, US
M. Nasser Ghodsi - Hamilton MA, US
Assignee:
KLA-Tencor Corporation - Milpitas CA
International Classification:
H01J 37/244
US Classification:
250397, 250310
Abstract:
A signal conduction channel having a first element that receives electrons at a first end from a vacuum environment, produces photons as the electrons are received, and propagates the photons along a length of the first element to a distal second end, and a second element that receives the photons from the second end of the first element, converts the photons to electrons, and multiplies the electrons, where no additional element is disposed between the second end of the first element and the second element, except optionally at least one of a photon-conductive epoxy, a lens, and an optical coupling plate that touches both the second end of the first element and the second element.

Delivery System For Radiation Therapy

US Patent:
8050384, Nov 1, 2011
Filed:
Oct 14, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/251298
Inventors:
Mark Philip Carol - Burlingame CA, US
Joseph A. Heanue - Oakland CA, US
Assignee:
Triple Ring Technologies, Inc. - Newark CA
International Classification:
A61N 5/10
US Classification:
378 65, 378 64
Abstract:
A small tabletop stationary five-degree of freedom device such as a “robot” is used to define the treatment region by tracing the region under direct visualization and then to precisely deliver the treatment plan created by an automatic planning system by positioning a single low energy radiation source, or a plurality of low energy sources connected to each other in a predetermined parallel or similar geometry, each source equipped with blocking and attenuation mechanisms, at a plurality of positions in a planar fashion across or through a selected treatment field, thereby delivering a plurality of parallel overlapping beams indexed on a millimeter or submillimeter grid such that a concentration of dose is achieved at a variable depth in tissue relative to the dose where the radiation first enters the tissue and can be used to treat regions on or below the surface of tissue, in a cavity and underlying region created following a surgical resection, on or below the surface of an internal cavity, hollow viscus, or lumen, or deep in tissue adjacent to an inserted probe or conduit or catheter. By generating a plurality of overlapping beams indexed on a millimeter or submillimeter grid that converge on a target volume loaded with gold nanoparticles, a tumorcidal dose of radiation can be delivered in as little as a single session to tumor cells but not to normal cells within or outside the treatment volume. This approach also makes it possible to deliver serial radiosurgical treatments.

System And Method For Determining Electrode-Tissue Contact Based On Amplitude Modulation Of Sensed Signal

US Patent:
8160690, Apr 17, 2012
Filed:
Jun 14, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/762778
Inventors:
Brian P. Wilfley - Los Altos CA, US
Joseph A. Heanue - Los Altos CA, US
Stuart L. Friedman - Palo Alto CA, US
Assignee:
Hansen Medical, Inc. - Mountain View CA
International Classification:
A61B 5/05
US Classification:
600547, 607 28
Abstract:
Methods and systems for monitoring contact between a medical probe and tissue are provided. A medical probe is introduced into a patient adjacent the tissue. An electrical parameter, e. g. , electrical admittance, is measured between a first electrode located on the medical probe and a second electrode remote from the first electrode. The electrical parameter is amplitude modulated in response to a physiological cycle of the patient. Contact between the medical probe and the tissue is detected based on the amplitude modulation of the measured electrical parameter.

Photon Measurement Method And Apparatus

US Patent:
8269964, Sep 18, 2012
Filed:
May 3, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/381450
Inventors:
John F. Heanue - San Jose CA, US
Joseph A. Heanue - Palo Alto CA, US
Brian P. Wilfley - Los Altos CA, US
Augustus P. Lowell - Durham NH, US
Assignee:
Nellcor Puritan Bennett LLC - Boulder CO
International Classification:
G01J 3/30
US Classification:
356317, 356 51, 356336, 356445, 356446, 600407, 600476
Abstract:
A system and method for measuring photons utilizing a low-power light source modulated with a code sequence to interrogate a sample of interest. Preferably a portion of the scattered light from the sample is detected by a photo-detector. A correlation of the photo-detector signal and the code sequence produces an estimate of the distribution of flight times for photons traveling from the source to the detector.

Method And Apparatus For Cerebral Oximetry

US Patent:
8433384, Apr 30, 2013
Filed:
Sep 3, 2010

Assignee:
Covidien LP - Mansfield MA
International Classification:
A61B 5/00
US Classification:
600324
Abstract:
The present invention pertains to a method and apparatus for cerebral oximetry. A modulated optical signal based on a digital code sequence is transmitted to the human brain. A temporal transfer characteristic is derived from the modulated optical signal. Oxygen level in the brain is determined based on the temporal transfer characteristic.
