Filed: 2003-04-10
Abstract: An automated fluid formulating system for use in small scale laboratory
operations. The system utilizes a computer to provide precise control over the
measurement of ingredients and the entire formulating process. The novel
feature of this invention is that it can provide precise control over the
formulating of high viscosity, high solid fluids, such as emulsions and gels.
Further, a pre-programmed cleaning cycle can be input into the computer to
automatically clean the mixing elements so that the mixing elements do not
contaminate subsequent formulations with materials from the prior formulation.

Abstract: An implantable marking device is provided which is designed to percutaneously deliver
permanent markers to desired tissue locations within a patient's body, even if the desired
locations are laterally disposed relative to the distal end of the delivery device, as is the
case for conduit or cavity walls. This provides several advantages to the physician in
diagnosis and management of tissue abnormalities, such as a means of localization of a
tissue abnormality for follow-up surgical treatment, and a means of tissue abnormality site
identification for purposes of ongoing diagnostic follow-up. 
     In one preferred construction, a radiographic clip is configured in the form of a surgical
staple. A disposable tissue marker applier, which comprises a flexible tube, pull wire, and
squeeze handle, is employed to advance and deploy the clip to a desired tissue location.
Either a flexible or a rigid introducer is also provided for providing access to the site to be
marked.

Abstract: A light-permeable lid provided oppositely to a photodetector of a solid-state imaging element includes a glass substrate, and an infrared-ray shielding film formed on one side of the glass substrate. The light-permeable lid is disposed so that the side of the light-permeable lid (glass substrate) forming the infrared-ray shielding film is positioned at the opposite side of the side facing the photodetector of the solid-state imaging element. If dust mixes in the infrared-ray shielding film or dust deposits to the film, since the distance from the photodetector to dust (infrared-ray shielding film) is longer, the photodetector is less susceptible to adverse influence of the dust and occurrence of defect due to the dust can be decreased.
