20140266193 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR VASTLY UNDERSAMPLED ISOTROPIC PROJECTION RECONSTRUCTION WITH INVERSION RECOVERY - Described here are a system and method for obtaining a time series of images that depict a subject using an inversion recovery (“IR”) pulse sequence with a unique data acquisition scheme that allows for the retrospective identification of an image having an optimal tissue contrast. Data acquisition is performed using a radial acquisition scheme such as, preferably, a vastly undersampled isotropic projection reconstruction (“VIPR”) scheme. Using VIPR and IR, combined with a unique projection ordering, a series of three-dimensional, high spatial resolution images with multiple different image contrasts can be obtained. | 09-18-2014 |
20140347051 | System and Method for Acquiring Multiple Different Images Using A Single Magnetic Resonance Imaging Scan With Multiple Magnetization Preparation Radio Frequency Pulses - Described here are a system and method for obtaining multiple different images when performing a single scan of a subject with a magnetic resonance imaging (“MRI”) system. The scan includes the application of two or more magnetization preparation radio frequency (“RF”) pulses, such as inversion recovery (“IR”) pulses. Data is acquired after the application of each magnetization preparation RF pulse, thus allowing the acquisition of multiple different images of the subject in a single scan. Using this approach, the same information that used to require multiple different scans of the subject can be acquired in one single scan, and in less time than would be required to perform the multiple scans. | 11-27-2014 |

20100249724 | Medical Valve with Distal Seal Actuator - A medical valve transitions between an open mode that permits fluid flow, and a closed mode that prevents fluid flow. To that end, the valve has a housing with an inlet and an outlet, a post member moveably mounted within the housing and a distal seal member. The post member moves distally within the housing to fluidly connect the inlet and outlet upon insertion of a medical implement into the inlet. The post member also moves proximally within the housing to fluidly disconnect the inlet and outlet upon withdrawal of the medical implement. The distal seal member has a tapered wall region that surrounds a normally closed aperture. The distal movement of the post member opens the aperture and inverts the tapered wall region. | 09-30-2010 |

20090207947 | Efficient Diversity Combining for Wideband Downlink - A communication system employing site diversity combing to increase link availability includes at least two receivers at receive sites within a single downlink beam separated by enough distance to provide decorrelation of weather phenomena—such as rain fade outages. A signal transmits digital symbols to all the receivers and may use bandwidth efficient modulation with forward error correction coding. Sampled symbol values for each codeword are produced at each receiver, which are connected by one or more ground links so that all data can be collected at one site. At least two different soft-decision computation modules translate the sampled symbol values from the different receivers into different sets of soft-decision values—which may be log-likelihood-ratio (LLR) values reflecting the probability value for each bit of the codeword—that are digitally synchronized and combined for use by a decoder. The technique thus avoids disadvantages of either coherent waveform combining or BER-based digital switching. | 08-20-2009 |
