IPC: G01N29/24
Filed: 2008-03-10
Abstract: A medical apparatus acquires information indicating an internal state of a region being examined of an object based on a modulated component of light caused by interaction with ultrasound waves in the region. In the apparatus, light radiating component (4,52f,52a,53a,21b,22e1) has a light radiating member (22g1) radiating the light toward the region of the object, and light detecting components (22g2,22e2,21c,53b) have a light detecting member (22g2) detecting light that has been transmitted through the region of the object. The light radiating and detecting components are supported by support components (22h,59,22f1,22f2) configured to be opposed to each other with the region located between the light radiating and detecting members. An ultrasound emitting component (22d) emits the ultrasound waves toward the region from a direction different from a radiating direction of the light radiated from the light radiating member. The emitted ultrasound waves modulate the radiated light.

Abstract: The invention relates to methods for determining the activity of a proteolytic coagulation factor of the blood coagulation cascade in a body fluid such as whole blood or plasma. A combination is provided in a reaction mixture. The combination comprises the sample and an activation agent for activating a proteolytic coagulation factor of the blood coagulation cascade or for activating the blood coagulation cascade. The effect of the activating on a reagent system comprising a cleavable moiety is evaluated. The cleavable moiety is or becomes bound to a chemiluminescent agent or a sensitizer agent or both. The chemiluminescent agent and the sensitizer agent are related in that, when in close proximity, energization of the sensitizer agent results in energization of the chemiluminescent agent. The effect of the activating is related to the activity of a proteolytic coagulation factor of the blood coagulation cascade wherein the effect is the extent of cleavage of the cleavable moiety.

Filed: 2008-03-27
Abstract: L'invention concerne un système de détection d'orientation utilisant un algorithme qui améliore de façon itérative une estimée de l'attitude du corps. Dans chaque itération, un vecteur d'erreur est généré qui représente la différence entre les signaux de détecteur mesurés réellement d'une part, et une prédiction à base de modèle de ces signaux de détecteur, donnant l'estimée d'attitude de l'itération précédente, d'autre part. A partir du vecteur d'erreur de données de détecteur composé, une erreur d'estimation d'attitude (une rotation à 3 degrés de liberté) est calculée par la multiplication du vecteur d'erreur composé par la pseudo-inverse d'une matrice de sensibilité. Une estimée d'attitude améliorée est ensuite obtenue par l'application de l'inverse de l'erreur d'estimation d'attitude à l'estimée d'attitude antérieure.
