20100137951 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR REDUCING BODY TEMPERATURE OF A SUBJECT - A cooling system includes a console and a tissue cooling device such as a head-cooling device. An operator applies the head-cooling device to the head of a patient at risk for ischemic injury. The console provides a cooling fluid to a fluid circulation space located between the cooling device and the patient's head under a positive gage pressure. Direct contact between the cooling fluid and the patient's head provides a relatively rapid induction of systemic hypothermia in the patient, thereby minimizing or preventing ischemic injury in the patient. The console also removes air from a channel disposed about an inner rim of the cooling device, using a negative gage pressure. Such removal of the air from the channel seals the rim of the cooling device to the head of the patient, including portions of the channel in contact with hair of the patient's head, and minimizes leaking of the cooling fluid beyond the rim of the cooling device. | 06-03-2010 |

20100303916 | ENHANCED DRUG DELIVERY WITH ORIENTABLE PARTICLES - Small airway deposition of orientable drug particles in the lung due to interception is increased through alignment of these particles with an externally applied force such as a magnetic field. Drug particles in one embodiment are made magnetically responsive by loading them with magnetic nanoparticles. Elongated particles have a natural tendency to align parallel to the direction of flow through an airway, and therefore also parallel to airway walls; accordingly, alignment with a magnetic field to any other orientation increases interception, with a maximum increase for alignment perpendicular to airway walls. By positioning a magnetic field across a specific site within the lung, for example in the area of a tumor, the increase in deposition by interception allows localized targeting of inhaled drug particles to that area. | 12-02-2010 |

20090306929 | ULTRASONIC DIMENSIONING SYSTEM AND METHOD - An ultrasonic dimensioning system and method by which objects can be quickly and accurately measured (dimensioned). The system includes at least a stable object support surface, a number of ultrasonic receivers, and an ultrasonic transmitter. The ultrasonic transmitter is preferably part of a pointer device that is properly positioned relative to an object to be measured, the proper position(s) depending on the shape of the object. Subsequent transmission of ultrasonic pulses (waves) from the pointer device are received by the ultrasonic receivers. The time intervals between transmission and reception of the ultrasonic pulses (waves) are used to determine the distance of the pointer from the receivers, which distances are subsequently used to calculate the dimensions/volume of the object. | 12-10-2009 |
