20080237308 | FORGE WELDING METHOD - A method of joining tubulars includes the step of joining the tubulars by forge welding. The tubular ends that are to be welded together may be shaped into a sloping configuration, such that when the tubular ends are heated during the forge welding process the heated tubular ends deform as a result of thermal expansion into a substantially longitudinally oriented cylindrical shape. | 10-02-2008 |

20120278084 | METHOD FOR SELECTING ELEMENTS IN TEXTUAL ELECTRONIC LISTS AND FOR OPERATING COMPUTER-IMPLEMENTED PROGRAMS USING NATURAL LANGUAGE COMMANDS - A method for controlling a program by natural language allows a user to efficiently operate a computer-implemented target program through intuitive natural language commands. A list of natural language commands related to the target program is compiled. Each natural language command is stored as an element in an electronic list. Natural language commands generally consist of short sentences comprising at least a predicate (a verb) and an object (a noun). A user can filter the list of natural language commands by entering the initials of a natural language command. The user enters the first character of the first word to be filtered, followed by the first character of the second word to be filtered, and so forth. Filtering by initials very rapidly reduces the number of choices presented to a user and minimizes the number of keystrokes required to select a particular list element. | 11-01-2012 |

20130206172 | OIL REMOVAL METHOD AND APPARATUS - A device for removing spilled oil, oily substances or other liquids from a surface has a main body with a pair of handles towards its upper end and a cleaning head at the lower end. The cleaning head is fitted with rotary brushes and also contains a motor and drive gear. At the upper end of the main body, a flexible pipe is connected to a hollow passage formed by and extending through the main body via a short flexible pipe to the cleaning head. In the opposite direction, the flexible pipe extends to remote air pressure, vacuum and sorbent material sources. The device has three main modes of operation which are used in sequence to supply absorbent material (e.g., chipped bark) to the contaminated ground; then the absorbent material is massaged into the surface of the ground; and finally the absorbent material together with the liquid is removed. | 08-15-2013 |

20090279763 | METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR COMBINED 4D PRESENTATION OF QUANTITATIVE REGIONAL MEASUREMENTS AND MORPHOLOGY - A method for combined 4D presentation of quantitative measurements and morphology of an object uses an apparatus that includes a computer or processor, memory, and a display. The method includes identifying a region of interest in volumetric image data. Then, the following steps are iterated to produce a 4D volume rendering. The iterated steps include tracking a wall of the object in the region of interest of the image data to produce a displacement field, applying the displacement field to display data to create enhanced rendering data, volume rendering the enhanced rendering data to produce an enhanced volume rendering, and displaying the enhanced volume rendering. | 11-12-2009 |

20120065510 | ULTRASOUND SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CALCULATING QUALITY-OF-FIT - An ultrasound imaging system and method include generating an image from ultrasound data of an anatomical structure and fitting a model to the image, the model including a standard view of the anatomical structure. The system and method include calculating a quality-of-fit of the image to the model. The system and method include displaying an indicator based on the quality-of-fit of the image to the model. | 03-15-2012 |
20120157845 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR MOTION-COMPENSATED ULTRASOUND IMAGING - An ultrasound imaging system and method include acquiring first ultrasound data, the first ultrasound data comprising data of a first plane through a structure of interest. The ultrasound imaging system and method include tracking the motion of a landmark based on the first ultrasound data. The ultrasound imaging system and method acquiring second ultrasound data, the second ultrasound data including data of a second plane through the structure of interest, the second plane being distinct from the first plane, where the position of the second plane is adjusted to track the motion of the landmark. The ultrasound imaging system and method also includes generating an image based on the second ultrasound data. | 06-21-2012 |
20140187948 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ULTRASOUND IMAGE RENDERING - Systems and methods for ultrasound image rendering are provided. One system includes a user interface having a display configured to display ultrasound images for a volume data set and a content detection module configured to detect an object within the volume data set. The system also includes an image-processing module configured to receive ultrasound signals from a diagnostic probe and process the signals to generate the ultrasound images. The image-processing module is further configured to locally change an opacity function of the displayed ultrasound image based on the detected object to change an opacity of a subset of voxels in the volume data set. | 07-03-2014 |
