Abstract: An electronic read/write or microscope-camera system which can receive and store very low energy optical and equivalent electronic signals on a special opto­electronic tape or medium as varying charge density distributions over the imaged frame. Images are retrieved from the tape or medium by scanning the tape or medium with a focused electron beam which causes the tape or medium to emit secondary electrons as a charge density modulated return beam current. The electrons in the return beam are collected and amplified to develop an electrical signal representative of the image stored on the tape or medium. A method of applying images to and retrieving them from the tape or medium is also disclosed.

IPC: G04G3/00
Filed: 1987-06-03
Abstract: A switching circuit is described, for selecting between first and second clock signals (CLKA,CLKB). When it is desired to switch from the first to the second clock signal, the first clock signal is de-selected in synchronism with the beat of the first clock and then, after a delay, the second clock signal is selected in synchronism with the beat of the second clock. Conversely, when it is desired to switch from the second to the first clock signal, the second clock signal is de-selected in synchronism with the beat of the second clock and then, after a delay, the first clock signal is selected in synchronism with the beat of the first clock. This avoids the possibility of a short pulse or "glitch" at the instant of switch-over.

Abstract: A medical guidewire (10) has an elongated body that has a degree of flexibility and a distal tip region of relatively greater flexibility. The guidewire consists of a core (12) having a body (32) of first diameter, a distal portion of a relatively smaller diameter, and a generally flat distal end. The end is disposed in the tip region (34) and is spaced proximally from a round tip element (22) that defines the distal end of the guidewire. A first coil (14) is jointed ot the core body and extends along the core to a termination point in the distal tip region, proximal of the end of the core. A relatively more flexible second coil (18) is joined at its proximal end to the first coil and joined at its distal end to the round tip element. A safety wire (24) is secured to the core and has a generally flat distal end within the second coil, joined to the round tip. A transition wire (26) is secured to the core and has a generally flat distal end that terminates within the second coil intermediate of the distal ends of the core and safety wire. In this or other medical guidewires, the first and second coils are joined in sequence, the second coil overlapping the first coil, both having essentially the same outer diameter. The above resulting in a joint of substantially uninterrupted flexibility.

Abstract: dsRNA reduces the phenomenon of viral escape and cellular damage attendant thereto. Viral escape is a process by which a virus or intracellular pathogen alters its host range or indirectly alters its susceptibility to antiviral or immunological therapies. Viruses do so by causing specific changes in their genomic/antigenic composition and/or by causing the elaboration of factors which enhance destructiveness of cells and their ability to multiply progeny virus. Animals susceptible to viral infections and pathology secondary to antigenic drift may have damage reduced by exposing them to dsRNA which prevents or substantially minimizes viral escape brought about through these mechanisms of molecular rearrangement and/or elaboration of factors which break down the natural host defenses.
