20130096415 | METHOD TO DETERMINE SODIUM VALUES DESCRIBING THE CONTENT OF 23NA+, AND LOCAL COIL FOR USE IN SUCH A METHOD - In a method to determine at least one sodium value describing the 23Na+ content in at least one region of interest in a target region in the body of a patient, at least one sodium image data set of the target region is acquired with a magnetic resonance imaging device using sodium-23 imaging, the sodium image data set including image data dependent on the occurrence of sodium. The at least one region of interest is defined for which the sodium value is to be determined in the sodium image data set. The sodium value is determined by comparison of the image data in the region of interest with reference image data of at least one subject with a defined 23Na+ content, the reference image data having been acquired with the same sequence. A local coil can be used to implement the method that has a phantom integrated therein that allows the sodium image data set and the reference image data to be acquired together. | 04-18-2013 |

20160139650 | POWER TRANSFER ESTIMATION - A power conversion system includes a power transfer estimator that is operable to provide a determination of the cumulative amount of power transferred through the power supply, without additional sensing elements and at extremely low power levels, and to provide such determinations periodically over potentially long periods of time commensurate with the lifetime of a limited power source such as a battery. In a power conversion system operating in a discontinuous conduction mode (DCM), the power transfer estimator determines the charge transferred during each switching cycle, and the total number of switching cycles, to calculate the cumulative amount of power transferred. The power transfer estimator is optionally operable to calculate a value for the inductance to be used in the determination of the cumulative amount of power transferred through the power supply. | 05-19-2016 |
