Patent EP-1116494-A2 (EP)
Inventor: BORNZIN GENE A
IPC: A61N1/37
Filed: 2001-01-10
Abstract: An implantable dual chamber stimulation device provides a novel
detection scheme for automatically detecting atrial capture and
performing an atrial pacing threshold assessment. The stimulation device
preferably waits until the patient is at or near rest and monitors the
patient's P-wave activity to determine an detection window where a next
P-wave is expected to occur. The stimulation device then delivers an
atrial pulse prior to the next detection window, and monitors the window
to determine whether a P-wave occurs therein. If a P-wave does not
occur, then atrial capture is present, while occurrence of a P-wave
indicates absence of atrial capture. If atrial capture is absent, the
stimulation device automatically determines an appropriate atrial pacing
threshold by monitoring the detection window while adjusting the
stimulation pulse energy level. Advantageously, the present invention
further employs a "bottom-up" adjusting scheme which starts at a low
energy level, below the expected atrial pacing threshold, and increases
the energy level until atrial capture is detected, thus saving energy and
further avoiding corruption by large polarization signals. The latter feature
is compatible with the present detection scheme and conventional evoked
response detection schemes. The new atrial pacing threshold is then set
at the atrial pulse level at which atrial capture was effectuated plus a
predetermined safety margin.

Abstract: The present invention provides a synthesizer receiver which comprises a
variable band pass filter having the variable pass bandwidth to which an intermediate
frequency signal is supplied; a first detection circuit for detecting the level of an adjacent
broadcast wave signal to enable supplying the detected output to the band pass filter as a
pass bandwidth control signal; a second detection circuit for detecting the received electric
field intensity, a counter for counting the frequency of the output signal of said variable
band pass filter; and a control circuit which checks the output detected by said second
detection circuit during execution of the seek, controls the pass bandwidth of the variable
band pass filter to be switched to the wide band if the detected output of the second
detection circuit indicates that the received electric field intensity is equal to or greater
than a predetermined value as the checking result, determines whether the detected output
is tuned in to the broadcast wave signal or not based on the counter value of the counter,
and stops the seeking if the determination result indicates that the detected output is turned
in to the broadcast wave signal.

Abstract: The invention relates to an electronic ballast for a fluorescent lamp, the lamp load
circuit being connected between the inverter power switch elements (S 1 , S 2 ). The
lamp load circuit comprises an inductor (L R ) in a series connection with the lamp.
Prior to the ignition of the lamp, the lamp load circuit also includes a capacitor
(C R ) in a series connection with the heating transformer primary winding (T 1a ), this
series connection being in parallel with the lamp. The heating current is supplied
to the lamp cathodes solely via the heating transformer secondary windings (T 1b ,

(S 3 ) that is in parallel with the transformer primary winding (T 1a ) in an ON
condition. The heating current may be controlled to a desired level by driving the
switch (S3) ON and OFF with a pulse-width-controlled drive signal.

Abstract: An image registration system and method employ a registration processor (130) for optimal registration of images (110, 112) by finding a spatial orientation optimizing the statistical measure of cross-entropy. The cross-entropy is minimized where one or more reasonably good a prior estimation of the true probability density function of voxel value pairs are available. Where such an estimate is unavailable, the joint pdf for one or more known incorrect spatial arrangement (e.g., based on prior misregistrations) is used as the prior pdf estimate(s) and a spatial orientation maximizing cross-entropy is found. Likely and unlikely prior pdf estimations can also be used together to register images. The transformation that optimizes the cross entropy provides an optimal registration, and the parameters for the optimized transform are output to memory (150) for use by a display system (160) in aligning the images for display as a fused or composite image.

The relevant parameters of blood flow include mean flow velocity, systolic acceleration, and pulsatility index. By measuring and analyzing these parameters, one can ascertain the vascular health of a particular vessel, multiple vessels and an individual. Such measurements can also determine whether a substance has an effect, either deleterious or advantageous, on vascular health. In one of many embodiments, the present invention further provides an expert system for achieving the above.
