Title: Real-time monitoring of photodynamic therapy over an extended time
Inventor: CHEN JAMES C
IPC: A61B8/00
Filed: 2000-05-26
Abstract: Progress of photodynamic therapy (PDT) administered over an extended period of time is monitored using an ultrasonic probe (30), which produces ultrasound images of an internal treatment site in real time. The ultrasound images indicate the extent and volume of an infraction zone within a tumor (20) or other diseased tissue at the internal treatment site within a patient's body. Light is administered to the internal treatment site from either an internal or external light source that produces light in a waveband corresponding to the characteristic absorption waveband a photoreactive agent that is administered to a patient. Prior to or shortly after initiating administration of the light therapy, a baseline ultrasound image is produced for comparison to subsequent ultrasound images made after the effects of the PDT on the diseased tissue have occurred.

Title: Method and device for producing plastic hollow bodies which are at least partially filled with foamed material
Inventor: MOITZHEIM JURGEN
IPC: B29C44/14
Filed: 2000-06-17
Abstract: The invention relates to a method and device for producing plastic hollow bodies which are at least partially filled with foamed material (54). According to the invention, a blowing mold (22) is firstly used to expand a preform (12) by means of internal overpressure in order to form the hollow body which is then at least partially filled with plastic beads made of foamed plastic, and the plastic beads undergo an increase in volume inside the hollow body. To this end, the compressed plastic beads are subsequently introduced, while under a pressure that is greater than the pressure prevailing inside the hollow body, into the expanded hollow body still located inside the blowing mold. The plastic beads located inside the hollow body are relieved from pressure which leads to an increase in the volumes of the plastic beads, thus effecting a filling, which is as complete as possible, of at least one delimited partial volume of the hollow body with a plastic foam.
