Inventor: FELLER WALTER J
IPC: G01S13/75
Filed: 2006-11-09
Abstract: A system for ascertaining the range from an interrogator to one or more transponders comprises an interrogator that transmits an RF carrier that is received by each transponder, the energy in the received carrier being used to charge up a storage capacitor in each senses the termination of the received carrier and initiates a known delay interval different from those of the other transponders.

Title: Method and apparatus for inflating and deflating balloon catheters
Inventor: MIHALIK TERESA ANN
IPC: A61F2/958
Filed: 2005-03-23
Abstract: A system and method for controlling inflation, ablation, and deflation of a balloon catheter, including a catheter, a console having a pressurized gas or liquid inflation source, and an umbilical system to deliver coolant. A pressure-sensing device monitors pressure and volume within the catheter.  During inflation, pressure and/or volume of fluid within the balloon is maintained to provide sufficient pressure against the target region. Inflation pressure is limited so a safe quantity of gas would be released should a leak occur. If the amount falls below a threshold, fluid egress is presumed, halting inflation. An intermediate console having a shut-off valve may be coupled between the console and catheter to interrupt coolant flow upon leak detection. The balloon can be re-inflated by a separate coolant source in the intermediate station or by a syringe. A second balloon may envelope the first balloon, providing a safety vacuum between the two balloons.
