Patent HK-1126379-A1 (HK)
Title: Mri guided hyperthermia surgery
Inventor: TORCHIA MARK
IPC: A61B19/00
Filed: 2009-06-04
Abstract: An MRI guided surgical apparatus includes a heat source formed by a laser (21) and an optical (20) fiber carrying the heat energy into a part to be coagulated by hyperthermia with an end reflector to direct the energy in a beam to one side of the fiber end. A reinforcing sleeve (38) for the fiber is mounted in a shielded, Piezo-electric motor (22) which causes movement of the fiber longitudinally and angularly within a rigid elongate cannula. A magnetic resonance imaging system is arranged to generate a series of output signals over a period of time representative of temperature in the part as the temperature of the part changes during that time. The heat source is controlled in heat energy applied and location and orientation of the beam to stop heating when the temperature at the boundary of a tumor reaches the required hyperthermic temperature. Cooling of the tip portion of the probe can be effected by encasing the fiber in a tubing material defining a duct for the fiber and supply and return parallel ducts for cooling fluid, the tubing being encased in a titanium stiffening sleeve which is driven in the longitudinal and rotational directions to move the fiber tip.

Patent HK-1011070-A1 (HK)
Title: Selectively actuatable lighter
Inventor: MCDONOUGH JAMES M
IPC: F23Q2/16
Filed: 1998-11-09
Abstract: A selectively actuatable lighter device is disclosed which includes a body defining reservoir for containing a combustible gaseous medium such as butane, and having a valve arranged to be selectively actuated between a normally closed position and an open position which permits the exit of the gaseous medium. Such lighter can selectively produce sparks at a location proximate to the gaseous medium exit to ignite the gaseous medium. Such lighter device embodies a resiliently releasable latch which normally prevents actuation of a valve actuator to the open position thereby preventing actuation of the valve. The latch is selectively movable to a position out of interference with the valve actuator, so that the gaseous medium may be released and ignited by the sparks. The latch is resiliently structured and mounted such that once a flame is produced and the valve actuator is released, the latch returns to its closed or latched position to prevent actuation of the valve to the open position by prevention of the pivotal motion of the valve actuator. To "re-use" the lighter, the latch must again be moved to an unlatched position so that the valve actuator can be opened for subsequent ignition of the gaseous medium.

When leaving the apparatus (10), the particles (16) entrained in the gas stream pass through a substantially conical exit nozzle (24) which causes the pattern of distribution of the particles to greatly expand. Methods for using the apparatus and for preparing the sample cartridges (14) are also described.

Title: A reagent cuvette
Inventor: O'DONOVAN MICHAEL
IPC: B01L3/14
Filed: 2004-11-18
Abstract: A reagent cuvette (1) has a first chamber (2) with an inspection part (5) and a socket (6), and a second chamber (3). The socket (6) has four spikes (20) at its base. Both chambers are sealed with a membrane. At the point-of-care the foil membrane (7) of the first chamber (2) is peeled away by the therapist (typically general practitioner doctor). A sample, such as blood, is added to the chamber (2) using a pipette or other device to provide a verifiable quantity of sample. This provides a mixture of a buffer reagent supplied in the chamber (2) and the sample injected into the inspection chamber 2 at the point of care.. The chamber (3) is then inserted into the socket (6) by gently pressing it down so that its foil membrane is broken by the spikes (20). This causes the starter reagent to drop down form within the second chamber (3) into the inspection part (5) of the first chamber (2). The inspection part (5) is then inserted into an optical inspection instrument for analysis of the two reagents and the sample mixed together.  <Figure 1>
