Abstract: The invention relates to a method for detecting and processing the amplitude and phase of signal waves. A Modulated signal source generates the signal waves which are modified by transmission medium or by reflection and scattering by at least one object. The modified signal waves are received and demodulated using a modulation signal. The amplitude of the modulated signal waves and their phase relationship to the modulation signal are measured and evaluated. The demodulated signal wave is converted into an electrical charge or charge displacement in the receiving medium and is distributed in accordance with a modulation signal to at least two readout outputs and fed to an evaluation unit. The evaluation unit produces the sum and difference of the output signals thus applying the value of the intensity and the phase position of the signal wave that has been scattered, reflected or delayed by the object.

Abstract: A method of producing (S)-3-[2-{(methylsulfonyl)oxy}ethoxy]-4-(triphenylmethoxy)-1-butanol methane sulfonate using 1,3-butadiene and a ketoethanal to form an intermediate racemic mixture. The racemic mixture is resolved to remove one isomer from the reaction product mixture. Following resolution, the following steps are performed: reduce the isomer to an alcohol, react the alcohol with triphenylmethyl chloride, ozonalyze the resulting reaction product, reduce the ozonalyzed product to yield a diol and react the diol with a methane sulfonyl compound to form (S)-3-[2-{(methylsulfonyl)oxy}ethoxy]-4-(triphenylmethoxy)-1-butanol methane sulfonate. Alternatively, the racemic mixture may first be reduced and the resulting racemic alcohol mixture is resolved to isolate one isomer of the alcohol and the remaining process steps are followed.

Abstract: A prescription for an orthodontic brace is selected by providing data representing a number of teeth of the dental arch and by displaying images of the teeth in two or more different positions. Images of at least one tooth when in the first position and when in the second position are simultaneously displayed in superimposed fashion, and any difference in orientations of the displayed tooth images between the first position and the second position appears in contrast. As a consequence, the relative difference in positions can be readily observed. The invention is particularly useful for selecting a prescription of a brace from two or more prescriptions, and is also useful for observing the relative effect of a single prescription when used on certain teeth in comparison to the position of the same teeth during an earlier stage of treatment.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un dispositif d'affichage à particules présentant une monocouche d'une molécule polarisable bistable des deux côtés d'un espace rempli d'un liquide (46) contenant des particules en suspension. Les monocouches et l'espace rempli de liquide sont disposés entre des électrodes configurées (43, 44) lesquelles sont utilisées pour appliquer un champ électrique à travers les couches de l'espace, influençant ainsi l'orientation ou la répartition des particules en suspension. La transmission ou la réflectance optique de l'espace dépend du champ électrique appliqué. Les monocouches polarisables réagissent au champ électrique appliqué en prenant un de deux états polarisés stables. Le champ fourni par les dipôles des molécules dans la monocouche reste après suppression du champ extérieur, maintenant ainsi l'influence du champ électrique sur les particules en suspension du dispositif d'affichage.

Abstract: The present invention uses spectroscopic tissue volume measurements using non-ionizing radiation to detect pre-disease transformations in the tissue, which increase the risk for this disease in mammals. The method comprises illuminating a volume of selected tissue of a mammal with light having wavelengths covering a pre-selected spectral range, detecting light transmitted through, or reflected from, the volume of selected tissue, and obtaining a spectrum of the detected light. The spectrum of detected light is then represented by one or more basis spectral components, an error term, and an associated scalar coefficient for each of the basis spectral components. The associated scalar coefficient is calculated by minimizing the error term. The associated scalar coefficient of the each of the basis spectral components is correlated with a pre-selected property of the selected tissue known to be indicative of susceptibility of the tissue for the pre-selected disease to obtain the susceptibility for the mammal to developing the pre-selected disease.
