Title: Application of peptide/cell receptor kinetics utilizing radiolabelled somatostatin congeners in the in situ, in vivo detection and differentiation of neoplastic tissue
Inventor: O'DORISIO THOMAS M
IPC: A61K51/08
Filed: 1993-09-15
Abstract: APPLICATION OF PEPTIDE/CELL RECEPTOR KINETICS UTILIZING RADIOLABELED SOMATOSTATIN CONGENERS IN THE IN SITU, IN VIVO DETECTION AND DIFFERENTIATION OF NEOPLASTIC TISSUE                                Abstract of the Disclosure Broadly, the present invention is directed to a method for the detection and differentiation of neoplastic tissue in a patient suspected of having neoplastic tissue. The method includes the administration of a radiolabeled somatostatin congener to the patient and accessing the patient with a radiation detection probe for determining tissue exhibiting elevated levels of radiation, viz., neoplastic tissue. However, before subjecting the patient to such administration, an initial determination preferably is made as to whether the radiolabeled somatostatin congener will bind to the tumor site, i.e., whether somatostatin receptors are associated with the neoplastic tissue. This is conveniently done with a wide variety of endocrine tumors, which release peptides or hormones, referred to as "biochemical markers." In order to make this determination, initially a biochemical marker-inhibiting dose of unlabeled somatostatin congener is administered to the patient. The biochemical marker associated with the neoplastic tissue then is monitored to determine whether the administered somatostatin congener reduces the presence of the marker in the patient. If the monitored presence of the marker was reduced, then the surgeon can be confident that the neoplastic tissue or tumor contains receptors to which the somatostatin will bind. Thus, the administration of radiolabeled somatostatin congener is appropriate for such patient. If the biochemical marker associated with the neoplastic tissue is not appropriately reduced following the administration of the unlabeled somatostatin congener, then the neoplastic tissue may not be determinable by the use of radiolabeled somatostatin congener and alternative modalities of treatment should be considered, such as the use of radiolabeled antibodies as proposed in U.S. Patent No. 4,782,840. If the tumor is of a type that does not release a biochenmical marker, the presence of somatostatin receptors can be confirmed by other means, such as pathology, immunohistochemistry, radioreceptor\ assay, or such other means as will be apparent to those skilled in the art.

Title: Nonlinear scanning to optimize sector scan electro-optic reconnaissance system performance
Inventor: WIGHT RALPH H
IPC: H04N3/30
Filed: 1993-12-08
Abstract: A system and method for performing long range, non-linear, sector scan panoramic electro-optical reconnaissance of a scene from an airborne craft. According to the present invention, the reconnaissance can be performed at increased aircraft velocities with a given detector technology at a desired level of performance. The system according to the present invention comprises a focal plane array that is configured to detect an image of the scene, and to convert the image into electronic charge information representing the image, a main electronics unit that converts the electronic charge representation into an electronic signal which is a digital representation of the image. A lens arrangement is used to focus a narrow slit of the scene onto the focal plane array, and a rotating prism scans the slit across the scene at a non-linear scanning velocity as determined according no the present invention. The electronic signal is transmitted to a ground station where it is processed to provide visual image data and that represents the scene, distortion induced into this data as a result of the non-linear scan velocity is removed to provide a distortion free final image.

Title: Device for Measuring a Level of Material Using Microwaves
Inventor: OTTO JOHANNGEORG
IPC: G01F23/284
Filed: 1993-12-08
Abstract: A level measuring device using microwaves comprises an antenna for sending transmitted waves toward the surface of a material whose level is to be measured, and for the reception of echo waves resulting from reflection at the surface, and a receiving and evaluating circuit which derives from the echo waves received by the antenna an echo function representative of the echo amplitudes as a function of the distance and determines from the echo function the transit time of the microwaves from the antenna to the surface of the material and therefrom the distance of the surface of the material from the antenna. In order to detect the formation of deposits of the material on the antenna or further trouble conditions, such as damage to the antenna or the loss thereof, the level measuring device comprises an arrangement which compares a section of the echo function originating from a reference reflection point in the antenna or in the vicinity of the antenna with a predetermined threshold value and produces a signal indicating the existence of a state above or below the said threshold value. The reference reflection point may be constituted by a part of the antenna or a separate reference reflector mounted in the antenna or in the vicinity thereof
