Patent AU-4546996-A (AU)
Title: Liposome suspensions as blood pool imaging contrast agents
Inventor: TOURNIER HERVE
IPC: A61K49/18
Filed: 1996-02-22
Abstract: The present invention concerns injectable blood pool contrast agents for NMR and X-ray imaging purpose. These blood pool agents carry imaging contrast enhancers, e.g. paramagnetic or, respectively, radio-opaque compounds for imaging the circulation and/or circulation targeted organs. The blood pool agent compositions are formulated to protect the contrast agents from early removable by the reticulo-endothelial (RES) system of the liver and the spleen, so that they stay in the circulation long enough to provide good images of the blood vessels and blood perfused organs. X-ray and NMR imaging of the circulation and of targeted organs can strongly assist in diagnosing possible ailments in human and animal patients.

Patent AU-4658997-A (AU)
Title: Optical coupler
Inventor: LUCEY PAUL
IPC: G02B7/10
Filed: 1997-09-30
Abstract: A variable-focus variable-magnification optical coupler is provided, for coupling an endoscope to a variety of different cameras having image planes at different positions while maintaining "true-zoom" functioning of the optical coupler. By "true-zoom", it is meant that the focal length of the optical coupler's lens system can be varied without having the image out of focus. That is, once an image is focussed with the optical coupler, the image remains in focus even when the size of the image is changed by a zoom lens of the coupler. In one embodiment, the optical coupler includes an adjustment mechanism which is actuated to move a focus lens and a zoom lens assembly together along the length of the coupler relative to a camera mount. In another embodiment, an adjustment mechanism moves a back focal lens is moved relative to the camera mount to account for the different image plane of the camera.

Title: Methods of single nucleotide primer extension to detect specific alleles and kits therefor
Inventor: EYAL NURIT
IPC: C12Q1/68
Filed: 1993-07-01
Abstract: A method of determining the identity of a nucleotide base at a specific position in a nucleic acid of interest is described.
