Patent EP-2339975-A1 (EP)
Inventor: KEYER THOMAS
IPC: A61B17/70
Filed: 2009-09-29
Abstract: An anchor assembly for use in spinal fixation to interconnect a longitudinal spinal rod, which is integrally formed with a body of the anchor assembly. The anchor assembly includes a bone anchor, a collet, a body portion, a rod portion, and a locking cap. The anchor assembly is preferably configured so that in use, the bone anchor may be secured to the patient's vertebra prior to being received within the body portion. The anchor assembly enables a surgeon to implant the bone anchor without the body portion to maximize visibility and access around the anchoring site. Once the bone anchor has been secured to the patient's vertebra, the rod portion may be inserted into the rod-receiving channel of a second bone fixation element having a rod- receiving channel implanted at a second site and the body portion can be snapped-onto the bone anchor.

Abstract: Interference is prevented and radio transmission quality is improved. 
     A radio station (1r) performs communication by the use of a radio signal (d1). A radio station (2r) receives a radio signal (d2) which is indistinguishable from the radio signal (d1). A radio station (3r) is in a radio communication area of the radio station (1r) and a radio communication area of the radio station (2r). A communication format conversion unit (21) generates a radio signal (d2a) by converting a communication format of the radio signal (d2) to a communication format which is distinguishable from the radio signal (d1), and communicates with the radio station (3r) by the use of the radio signal (d2a).

Abstract: A system is provided for performing injections in the ventricle of a patient. The system includes an injection catheter with a proximal and distal end. Importantly, a flexible array is mounted at the distal end of the injection catheter and is moveable between a protective configuration and a flared configuration. Also, a needle of variable length is mounted on the distal end of the injection catheter and is covered by the flexible array when the array is in its protective configuration. In order to manipulate the flexible array, a locking mechanism is mounted on the proximal end of the injection catheter for engagement with the flexible array. When selectively operated, the locking mechanism moves the array from its protective configuration to the flared configuration, holds the array in its flared configuration for an injection, and subsequently moves the array back to its protective configuration.

Abstract: A fuel cell structure (10) with a porous metal plate includes a membrane electrode assembly (MEA) (20), a first porous metal plate (30), a metal plate (40), and a pair of end plates (50). The first porous metal plate (30) and the metal plate (40) are disposed on opposite outer surfaces (241, 251) of two gas diffusion layers (GDLs) (24, 25) of the MEA (20), respectively, and have fuel channels (32, 42) contacting with the GDLs (24, 25). The end plates (50) are arranged on outer surfaces (33, 43) of the first porous metal plate (30) and of the metal plate (40), respectively, to close cooling-liquid flow channels (31, 41) of the first porous metal plate (30) and of the metal plate (40). A pressure difference between fuel and cooling liquid within the fuel cell structure (10) pushes the cooling liquid flowing through the cooling-liquid flow channels (31) of the first porous metal plate (30) to seep into the fuel channels (32) spontaneously and hence humidify the fuel automatically, thereby maintaining the reaction efficiency of the fuel cell structure (10).

Abstract: The application relates to systems and methods for alternating between in-band and out-of-band communications paths during communication sessions. For example, wireless handheld telephony device may roam to a tower of a wireless network which does support a dual path protocol, i.e. a protocol involving both a data and non-data or audio path, such as 3G protocols (e.g. CDMA2000 1 x EV- DO or UTMS), to a tower of a wireless network which does not support the dual path protocol, such as 2G protocols without Dual Mode Transfer DTM, e.g. GSM/GPRS. Then a data path between the call control server (704) controlling device 11's call and the wireless handheld telephony device (11) may cease to be available. Without a data path, data representing control and other types of messages to be transmitted to and from the wireless handheld telephony device (11), such as, for example, in-call feature execution instruction, must be transmitted by some other means, if the ongoing call session is to be maintained and/or such features are to be enabled. Thus, in accordance with this disclosure, when an out-of-band path is not available, the system (700) may use an in-band communication method, such as dual-tone multifrequency DTMF signalling, to provide a communication channel between the call control server (704) and the wireless handheld telephony device (11) while a voice communication session is in progress.

Abstract: The method involves illuminating a diffusion medium (2) by a radiation source (L-1), and detecting a signal produced by the medium at fluorescence wavelength by a detector (PM-1) e.g. charged coupled device (CCD) detector. Temporal distribution of the signal is performed for source-detector pair, where the diffusing medium is discretized into voxels, where each of set of fluorophores (F-1) occupies one voxel. A basic parameter for temporal distribution is computed, and magnitude obtained from the moment of the distribution is combined with the estimation of the magnitude. The diffusing medium is an infinite-type diffusing medium. An independent claim is also included for a device for locating fluorophores in a diffusing medium using a pulsed radiation source and a detector.
