Abstract: The high pressure jet has a jet receiving body (4), round which there is an adjusting ring (8). The ring can be moved axially relative to the body. There is an axially spring-loaded jet body (12) inside the jet receiving body, in which there is a central passage (19,20) for the pressurised fluid and at least one bypass boring (16). The jet body is on one side against a resting surface (24) of the adjusting ring, and on the other side against that of the jet receiving body. It moves with the ring when the ring is moved, so that the endface of the jet body lifts off the resting surface of the jet receiving body and opens up passage for the pressurise fluid through the bypass boring.

Abstract: There is disclosed a method for moving an optical head from an initial track (10) to a target track (11) on a storage medium (1). The total number of tracks (3) to be crossed is determined, and the optical head is moved toward the target track (11). A reflectivity level of light from the storage medium (1) is measured, and a tracking error signal is derived from the reflectivity level. The tracking error signal has both true and false indicators of track crossings. A data indicator signal is derived from the reflectivity level, having indicator points corresponding to the false indicators of track crossings. A track count number is incremented for each true indicator of a track crossing, and the optical head is stopped when the track count number equals the total number of tracks (3) to be crossed. Another method is disclosed whereby a track count signal is generated from the tracking error signal and the data indicator signal. The track count signal indicates track crossings corresponding to the true track crossing indicators in the tracking error signal.

Abstract: Cette invention se rapporte à un système et à des principes d'imagerie et de tomographie photo-acoustique à laser. La tomographie photo-acoustique à laser se fonde sur la détection, avec résolution dans le temps, d'ondes de contraintes transitoires induites par laser, générées sélectivement dans les tissus absorbants faisant l'objet d'un diagnostic. Une telle technique permet de visualiser la répartition de lumière absorbée dans les tissus biologiques troubles irradiés par les impulsions lasers courtes. La tomographie photo-acoustique à laser peut être utilisée pour la détection de modifications pathologiques des tissus, qui entraînent une concentration accrue des divers chromophores tissulaires, telles que l'hémoglobine, ou un développement de la microcirculation stimulée dans les tissus malades. La technologie faisant l'objet de cette invention combine les avantages de l'excitation par laser pulsé avec la détection de transitoires acoustiques par résolution dans le temps. Cette technologie peut être utilisée pour déterminer les hétérogénéités optiques dans les tissus biologiques. Ces hétérogénéités comprennent les vaisseaux, les couches tissulaires, les tissus anormaux et les tissus endommagés, avec la possibilité ultérieure de reconstruire des images tomographiques tridimensionnelles d'organes humains ou de parties de ces organes.
