| 20120019236 | EDDY CURRENT DETECTION - Eddy current detection probes and related methods are disclosed. In some embodiments, the eddy current detection probes are hybrid probes, including a solid state sensor and a detection loop. In some embodiments, the eddy current detection probes include a drive coil and a detection loop, with the detection loop having a sensitive axis that is not parallel to principal axis of the drive coil. In some such embodiments, the sensitive axis of the detection loop is perpendicular to the principal axis of the drive coil. | 01-26-2012 |
| 20110121186 | CESIUM AND LITHIUM-CONTAINING QUATERNARY COMPOUND SCINTILLATORS - The present invention relates to quaternary compound scintillators and related devices and methods.

| 20090187096 | Sensor Array for Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Imaging Systems and Method - The present invention generally provides improved devices, systems, and methods for measuring materials with NMR and/or MRI. Exemplary embodiments provide a sensor array for NMR mapping of the material. For example tissue can be measured with the sensor array mounted on a probe body having a distal portion which can be inserted through a minimally invasive aperture. While many tissues can be measured and/or diagnosed, one exemplary embodiment includes a probe adapted for insertion into a lumen of a blood vessel. The sensor array can provide improved spatial resolution of tissue and/or tissue structures positioned near the sensor array to diagnose potentially life threatening diseases, for example a fibrous cap covering a vulnerable plaque. In specific embodiments, the sensors are attached to an expandable member, for example a balloon, which can be inflated to urge the probe sensors radially outward to position the sensors near the tissue structures. | 07-23-2009 |
| 20090050810 | ZnSe scintillators - The present invention relates to a microcolumnar zinc selenide (ZnSe) scintillator and uses thereof, and methods of fabrication of microcolumnar scintillators using sublimation-based deposition techniques. In one embodiment, the present invention includes a scintillator including a microcolumnar scintillator material including zinc selenide (ZnSe) and a dopant. The microcolumnar scintillators of the present invention provide improved light channeling and resolution characteristics, thereby providing high spatial resolution, highly efficient scintillators. | 02-26-2009 |
