20090129648 | Method of reducing imaging time in propeller-MRI by under-sampling and iterative image reconstruction - A method for reducing PROPELLER MRI data acquisition times, by combining k-space under-sampling and iterative reconstruction using NUFFT, while maintaining similar image quality as in PROPELLER MRI with sufficient k-space sampling. Iterative image reconstruction using NUFFT minimizes image artifacts produced with conventional PROPELLER image reconstruction in under-sampled acquisitions. The data acquisition and image reconstruction parameters are selected in order to achieve image quality similar to that of sufficiently-sampled PROPELLER acquisitions for significantly shorter imaging time. An advantage of using under-sampled PROPELLER imaging is a reduction in acquisition time by as much as 50% without introducing significant artifacts, and while maintaining other benefits of PROPELLER imaging. | 05-21-2009 |

20110241912 | ADC - This invention relates to Analog to Digital Converters (ADC) and, inter alia, to Time Interleaved ADCs and Successive Approximation Register (SAR) ADC's. In a conventional Time Interleaved ADC employing SAR ADC units, the input signal is processed through a track-and-hold circuit (T/H), and then through a buffer circuit, before the SAR ADC unit. There, by means of a comparator, the signal is compared with a Digital-to-Analog Converter (DAC) signal from the SAR logic. The buffer reduces the influence of capacitive loading and physical layout design on the SAR ADC input, but typically has a non-linear response and thus introduces distortion to the input signal. This can limit the ADC linearity, particularly for high-speed ADCs operating with low-supply voltages. An objective of the invention is to reduce or eliminate the effect of the buffer non-linearity. This is done in some embodiments by routing both the signals to the comparator through the same buffer circuit. In another embodiment the DAC signal is routed through a separate second buffer circuit. By use of a single buffer circuit, or where there is ideal matching of the buffer circuits in the latter embodiment, the distortion effects are completely eliminated; however, for practical imperfectly matched buffer circuits according to the latter embodiment, the gain and off-set mismatches can be accommodated through calibration of the buffers or, in suitable applications, through the DAC calibration. | 10-06-2011 |

The shape of the balloon can be the classical cylindrical or an hour-glass shape that facilitates targeted delivery of the drug at the valve tissues. Additional balloon shapes are described for usage after valvuloplasty is carried out in order to achieve targeted drug delivery in the upper or both surfaces of the leaflets, and for prolonged contact with the valve tissues without interruption of blood circulation. An advantage of the balloons is that the local delivery of the drug will significantly reduce the likelihood of restenosis. As a result the procedural benefits for the patient are sustained in the long term, and the procedure from alleviating progresses into end-therapy. | 01-27-2011 |
