Filed: 1984-05-25
Abstract: In an ultrasonic examination apparatus (100) of the sector 
scanning type, a false contour appears in a tomographic 
image of an object (20) due to a variation of the pixelizing, or 
digitizing precision over the entire scanning region, especially 
near the central ultrasonic scanning lines. A wobbling proces­
sor (64) is provided in an address generator for write opera­
tion (6). When the echo signals, or the image signals obtained 
by the scanning of the central untrasonic scanning lines are 
written into pixels of a frame memory, the write-in addresses 
are processed by the wobbling processor (64) so that the 
pixelizing precision can be uniformed over the entire scan­
ning region.

Title: Test system for keyboard interface circuit
IPC: G06F11/267
Filed: 1985-10-17
Abstract: A test system of this invention is capable of distinguishing interface circuit trouble from keyboard trouble. For diagnosis, an inhibit signal is generated to supply a test clock signal to an output shift register and an input shift register of the interface circuit instead of a clock signal generated from the keyboard, and test data are loaded into the output shift register. If the test data are transferred from the output shift register to the input shift register correctly, it is detected that the interface circuit does not have trouble.

IPC: H03M1/12
Filed: 1988-06-28
Abstract: The oversampling A/D converter samples an input analog 
signal at a higher frequency than the frequency band thereof 
and converts it into a digital signal. It is comprised of a 
first and second sample and hold means for alternately 
sampling and holding said input analog signal and generating 
first and second sample signals. First and second D/A 
converting means (12, 13) convert first and second digital 
local signals into corresponding first and second analog 
local signals, respectively. The respective differences 
between said first and second sample signals on the one hand 
and said first and second analog local signals on the other 
are determined by first and second subtracting means which 
generate first and second difference signals. Said first and 
second difference signals are alternately selected by 
selecting means (7) and delivered to integrating means (8). 
An integrated signal is supplied to quantizing means (9) 
which generate a quantized signal. Control logic circuit 
means (10) generate a digital signal based on said quantized 
signal. Distributing means (11) distribute said digital 
signal alternately to said D/A converters (12, 13) as said 
first and second digital local signals.  
     The present converter makes it possible to achieve 
about twice as fast operation as the conventional 
oversampling A/D converters by providing and alternately 
operating two each of sample and hold circuits, subtracters 
and D/A converters.

Title: Tumor immunotherapy using anti-idiotypic antibodies
IPC: C12N5/00
Filed: 1988-09-09
Abstract: The present invention relates to methods which utilize 
anti-idiotypic antibodies, or fragments thereof, for tumor 
immunotherapy or immunoprophylaxis. Monoclonal anti-­
idiotypic antibodies which recognize an idiotype present on 
a second antibody or on a T lymphocyte or on an immune 
suppressor factor which is directed against a defined tumor 
antigen, can be used for immunization against a tumor, for 
immune anti-tumor activation or inhibition of suppression, 
or for  in vitro  activation of lymphocytes to be used in 
adoptive immunotherapy. The anti-idiotypic antibodies, or 
fragments thereof, can also be used to monitor anti-antibody 
induction in patients undergoing passive immunization to a 
tumor antigen by administration of anti-tumor antibody. In 
another embodiment, administration of T lymphocytes which 
express an idiotype directed against a defined tumor antigen 
can be used to transfer delayed-type hypersensitivity to the 
tumor. In another method of the invention, the induction of 
anti-idiotypic antibodies  in vivo  by administration of 
anti-tumor antibody or immune cells or factors exhibiting an 
anti-tumor idiotype can be therapeutically valuable.

IPC: H01B11/10
Filed: 1988-01-26
Abstract: A highly flexible, shielded electrical cable (10) 
having exceptional pliability and limpness is provided 
for connection to devices such as hand-held medical 
instruments to minimize the resistance to movement of 
such devices imposed by such cable. The normal stiffness 
of shielded cables caused by a braided wire shield is 
minimized by eliminating the frictional resistance to 
relative movement between the shield (20) and the 
dielectric covering (18) of the conductor assembly (12) 
inside the shield. This is accomplished by loosely 
braiding the shield (20) around the dielectric covering 
(18) so as to impose no transverseley inward force on the 
dielectric covering. Preferably, a clearance (22) is 
formed between the shield (20) and the dielectric covering 
(18) and the density of the braided shield (20) is 
maximized to render it self-supporting. An outer 
dielectric jacket (24) of the cable (10) likewise loosely 
encircles the braided shield (20) to eliminate frictional 
resistance to relative movement between the shield (20) 
and jacket (24).
