| 20090282371 | INTEGRATION SYSTEM FOR MEDICAL INSTRUMENTS WITH REMOTE CONTROL - An integration system for medical instruments is described. In various embodiments, the integration system is useful for managing information from, and controlling, multiple medical instruments in a medical facility, as well as providing high fidelity audio communications between members of a clinical team. The system can be operated remotely in a sterile environment using gesture-based control and/or voice-recognition control. The system can record combined data instrument data, clinical data, system data, video and audio signals from a surgical procedure synchronously, as the data would be perceived during the procedure, in a central database. The recorded data can be retrieved and reviewed for instructional, diagnostic or analytical purposes. | 11-12-2009 |

| 20090156429 | PULSED-MULTILINE EXCITATION FOR COLOR-BLIND FLUORESCENCE DETECTION - The present invention provides a technology called Pulse-Multiline Excitation or PME. This technology provides a novel approach to fluorescence detection with application for high-throughput identification of informative SNPs, which could lead to more accurate diagnosis of inherited disease, better prognosis of risk susceptibilities, or identification of sporadic mutations. The PME technology has two main advantages that significantly increase fluorescence sensitivity: (1) optimal excitation of all fluorophores in the genomic assay and (2) “color-blind” detection, which collects considerably more light than standard wavelength resolved detection. Successful implementation of the PME technology will have broad application for routine usage in clinical diagnostics, forensics, and general sequencing methodologies and will have the capability, flexibility, and portability of targeted sequence variation assays for a large majority of the population. | 06-18-2009 |
| 20090303476 | Modulation cancellation method in laser spectroscopy - Novel methods and laser spectroscopic systems for accurately measuring the concentration of compounds are disclosed herein. The disclosed methods utilize a modulation cancellation technique resulting in a significantly increase in the sensitivity and accuracy of laser spectroscopic measurements. In general, the methods and systems utilize modulation phase-shifting and amplitude attenuation to cancel the signals detected from at least two modulated light beams. Thus, any signal detected will be directly proportional to the concentration measurement. | 12-10-2009 |
