Patent EP-1286171-A2 (EP)
Inventor: DRIEHUYS BASTIAAN
IPC: A61B5/026
Filed: 1999-03-17
Abstract: MR spectroscopy and imaging methods for imaging pulmonary and cardiac
vasculature and the cardiac region and evaluating blood flow or circulatory deficits
use dissolved phase polarized  129 Xe gas and large flip angle excitation pulses.
Pulmonary and cardiac vasculature MRI images are obtained by delivering gas to a
patient via inhalation such as with a breath-hold delivery -procedure, exciting the
dissolved phase gas with a large flip angle pulse, and generating a corresponding
image. Preferably, the image is obtained using multi-echo imaging techniques.
Blood flow is quantified using low field MR spectroscopy and an RF excitation pulse
with a frequency which corresponds to the resonance of the dissolved phase  129 Xe.

Abstract: A speaker system that detects what type of audio signal is supplied to it and automatically
adjusts to reproduce sound from either an analog audio input signal or a digital audio
input signal. The speaker system has one or more converters to convert each form of
digital audio into analog audio, a detection means to detect whether an analog audio input
signal or one of the possible digital audio signals is present and a multiplexer to switch
between either the analog audio input signal or one of the outputs of the digital audio
converters. Amplifier and speaker drivers are shown for completeness.

Patent EP-1229053-A2 (EP)
Inventor: GUENTHER GERHARD K
IPC: C08F8/50
Filed: 2002-01-30
Abstract: A method of processing polyethylene for use as an extruded blow molding resin
to improve the properties and processability thereof is accomplished by modifying a
polyethylene resin having a molecular weight distribution (Mw/Mn) of less than about
10. The modification is carried out by the addition of a free radical initiator to the resin
during extrusion of the resin to increase the rheological breadth of the polyethylene from
about 10% to about 60% compared to unmodified polyethylene resin extruded under
similar conditions. In another aspect of the invention, a polyethylene resin having higher
melt index is processed to provide a desired final melt index by the addition of a free
radical initiator where it would otherwise be necessary to utilize a resin having lower
melt flow, and which is more difficult to process. Improvements in color can also be
obtained.

Patent EP-1227297-A2 (EP)
Inventor: GOH TAKASHI
IPC: G02B6/126
Filed: 2002-01-25
Abstract: An interferometer includes a waveguide core (2),
and thin film heaters (4a,4b) with widths W1 and W2.
The thin film heaters are mounted directly above the
waveguide core, and operate as two types of different
annealing regions. The annealing, which is carried
out by supplying current to the thin film heaters
(4a,4b), can alter the quality of the cladding (3),
and change the stress applied on the waveguide core
(2), thereby making it possible to control the
polarization dependency. Thus changing the width of
the thin film heaters (4a,4b) and/or the amount of the
supply current thereto enables the permanent control
of the effective refractive index (birefringence
index) independently in the transverse electric
polarization mode and the transverse magnetic
polarization mode. This enables the transverse
electric polarization mode to be adjusted to a phase
difference of λ/2, and the transverse magnetic
polarization mode to a phase difference of zero.
