Abstract: A method of treating a herniated intervertebral disc includes inserting a heat-transfer area of a tube containing a fluid into a spinal column and transferring heat between the tube and a tissue. Vapor flows from an evaporator zone of the tube to a condenser zone and liquid flows from the condenser zone to the evaporator zone. Insulation material can be removed from the tube to adjust the heat-transfer area of the tube. The tube is configured such that when a temperature of a heat portal area of the tube is changed fluid changes state and flows to the heat-transfer area. The tube also contains a wick structure to assist liquid flow by way of capillary action. In addition, the tube includes a flexible segment that conforms to the inner curved surface of the annulus fibrosus of the intervertebral disc.

Abstract: An eye measurement system may include a target that moves transverse to an optical path from the target to eye, so as to relax accommodation of the lens of the eye. The target may move transverse to the optical path on a display. The patient may be fogged while the target moves transverse to the optical path, and the target may become smaller such that the patient perceives the target to be moving away from the patient. A pupil camera may measure eye position that can be correlated with the position of the target on the display to determine that the patient has maintained fixation on the moving target. A visible measurement light beam may be pulsed subsequent to and/or during motion of the target that relaxes accommodation of the eye so as to avoid visual interference of the measurement light beam with the target on the display.

Abstract: Methods of predicting earth stresses in response to pore pressure changes in a hydrocarbon-bearing reservoir within a geomechanical system, include establishing physical boundaries for the geomechanical system and acquiring reservoir characteristics. Geomechanical simulations simulate the effects of changes in reservoir characteristics on stress in rock formations within the physical boundaries to determine the rock formation strength at selected nodes in the reservoir. The strength of the rock formations at the nodes is represented by an effective strain (.epsilon. eff), which includes a compaction strain (.epsilon. c) and out-of-plane shear strains (~ 1-3, Y2-3) at a nodal point. The methods further include determining an effective strain criteria (.epsilon. eff cr) from a history of well failures in the physical boundaries. The effective strain (.epsilon. eff cr) at a selected nodal point is compared with the effective strain criteria (.epsilon. eff cr) to determine if the effective strain (.epsilon. eff) exceeds the effective strain criteria (.epsilon. eff cr).
