Patent CA-2576996-A1 (CA)
Inventor: LEATH SHANE RICHARD
IPC: G01N33/12
Filed: 2005-08-12
Abstract: A target, such as a stack of frozen meat cartons (8), is irradiated with at least two transmitted electromagnetic radiation signals (3) of differing frequencies. The attenuation of the received signals (4) is calculated via a signal processing means (5). A first signal may have a frequency in the microwave or UHF spectrum, and a second signal may have a frequency in the radio frequency spectrum. Absorption of the first signal by water should be higher than the absorption by ice, and absorption of the second signal by ice should be higher than the absorption by water. Quantities such as the temperature and the fat content of the target can be determined from the calculated attenuations, for relatively thick targets and at sub-freezing temperatures.

Title: Treating cancer with electric fields that are guided to desired locations within a body
Inventor: PALTI YORAM
IPC: A61N1/32
Filed: 2006-06-08
Abstract: Electric fields with certain characteristics have been shown to be effective at inhibiting the growth of cancer cells (and other rapidly dividing cells).  However, when the cancer is located in a target region beneath the surface of a body, it can be difficult to deliver the beneficial fields to the target region. This difficulty can be surmounted by positioning a biocompatible field guide between the surface of the body and the target region, positioning electrodes on either side of the field guide, and applying an AC voltage with an appropriate frequency and amplitude between the electrodes. This arrangement causes the field guide to route the beneficial field to the target region. In an alternative embodiment, one of the electrodes is positioned directly on top of the field guide.
