Patent EP-1547536-A1 (EP)
Inventor: ARAI TSUNENORI
IPC: A61M29/02
Filed: 2004-06-02
Abstract: A balloon catheter comprises a connecting member, a catheter shaft,
a balloon and a heat-generating member contacting a fluid in the balloon
or in a distal portion of the catheter shaft. A medical apparatus have the
balloon catheter. In a method for treating a living organ, a low
temperature fluid is introduced and flows through the balloon, energy is
introduced into the catheter shaft, is converted into heat by the
heat-generating member and heats the fluid, and a living organ is heated
and cooled for a medical treatment. A portion of disease is heated from
35∼40°C to 60∼80°C within 30 seconds, expanded by applying a pressure
of 500 kPa or smaller to the balloon, and cooled to 45°C or lower within 40
seconds. A living organ can be heated and cooled within a very short
time to cure a diseased tissue. A blood vessel can be expanded without
damages.

Inventor: DAVIS LINDA MARY
IPC: H04L25/03
Filed: 2004-02-20
Abstract: A decoding scheme for determining the information within a coded transmission includes a spherical decoder candidate search that reduces the number of candidate symbol combinations from a much larger number of possibly transmitted combinations. In one example, the spherical decoder (24) uses an upper triangular matrix (U) representation of the channel matrix (H) as part of a recursive, cumulative cost function that provides the results of the candidate search. The candidate search includes considering symbols in a hierarchy or tree structure (32) that represents the possibly transmitted combinations. The cost function incrementally accumulates a cost of a possible combination as the search progresses through the hierarchy. As soon as a symbol is determined to not be a valid candidate, all possible combinations including that symbol are discarded without considering them, directly.
