Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé de détection de bulles de gaz et d'incorporation des informations dans un système à rétroaction pour une thrombolyse opto-acoustique. Dans une thrombolyse opto-acoustique, le rayonnement du laser pulsé à des fréquences ultrasonores est introduit de façon intraluminale le long d'une fibre optique puis dirigé vers d'une thrombolyse ou d'un vaisseau occlus. On dissout ainsi l'occlusion par une action ultrasonore permettant de propager une pression ou des ondes de chocs. Une bulle de vapeur se trouvant dans le fluide entourant l'occlusion peut alors former un rayonnement laser. Cette bulle peut être utilisée pour rompre directement l'occlusion ou pour produire une onde de pression. Il est recommandé de détecter la formation de la bulle de vapeur et de la suivre pendant sa durée de vie. La connaissance de la formation de la bulle et de sa durée de vie fournit des informations importantes quant à la taille maximale de la bulle, la densité de rayonnement absorbé et les propriétés de la matière absorbante. Ces informations peuvent alors être utilisées dans un système à rétroaction pour modifier les conditions de rayonnement.

Abstract: One embodiment of the present invention provides a method and an apparatus
for facilitating a progressive coupon scheme in which the use of a coupon creates
another coupon that the purchaser can use in a subsequent purchase transaction. The
method includes defining ( 402 ) and storing ( 404 ) the progressive coupon scheme, which
specified how use of a first coupon leads to generation of a second coupon. Upon
receiving ( 310, 406 ) the first coupon as part of a purchase transaction, the system
identifies ( 408 ) the first coupon by examining an identifier in the first coupon. Next, it
associates ( 410 ) the first coupon with the second coupon by looking up the first coupon
in the stored progressive coupon scheme. Finally, the system issues ( 412 ) the second
coupon to the purchaser to be used in a subsequent purchase transaction by the
purchaser. The second coupon may differ from the first coupon in a number of ways: the
second coupon may have a greater monetary value than the first coupon; it may apply to
different goods and services than the first coupon; and the value of the second coupon
might be randomly determined. In a variation on the above embodiment, act of defining
the progressive coupon scheme includes specifying a chain of coupons, wherein each
successive coupon in the chain is generated in response to redemption of a preceding
coupon in the chain. In another variation, the first coupon and the second coupon take
the form of electronic coupons that can be communicated through a communication
channel ( 100 ).
