Abstract: A hair transplant apparatus (100) and method capture a hair graft into a hair graft chamber (104) readily aligned for implantation into the human scalp. The hair graft can be placed into the hair graft chamber manually or mechanically (e.g., by vacuum). A hair transplant apparatus includes a gas-permeable stopper for utilizing gas flow to load and/or implant a hair graft. Another hair transplant apparatus includes a gas-permeable rod (108) inside a housing (101). Vacuum may be utilized to load a hair graft into the hair graft chamber. The rod may be advanced toward an open distal end (116) of the chamber so the end (115) of the rod becomes substantially flush with the distal end, thereby pushing the hair graft out of the chamber and into the pre-made wound. Advantageously, the chamber is aligned with the direction of the pre-made wound allowing the hair graft to slide easily into the pre-made wound without damage. Extraneous forces are eliminated by the alignment of the chamber to the wound, thus creating a linear path for the hair graft to move without obstruction to finally settle in the scalp wound. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The use of standard coaxial cables for, e.g. connecting optional receive MR coils to MR-scanners has the problem that parasitic cable resonances may occur, which may cause RF burns to a patient. According to the present invention, the cable is divided into a huge number of small pieces. Each conductor in the small pieces is connected to the respective conductor in another small piece via a series capacitor. Due to this, e.g. at MR frequency, the cable according to the present invention is completely off resonant, such that no parasitic resonance may occur.
