20120041740 | DIGITISATION OF DENTAL PARTS - The surface of a dental part is scanned by a probe, to obtain a digital model of the surface in a dental CAD computer system. In the digital model, first and second boundary lines are defined, above and below a portion in which the scanned data is missing or unsatisfactory. One of the boundary lines may correspond to a margin line between prepared and unprepared portions of the patient's tooth. A transition surface is generated in the computer system, extending between the first and second boundary lines. This improves the representation of the dental part in the digital model, which may subsequently be used for manufacture of a dental restoration. | 02-16-2012 |
20150093719 | METHOD OF MANUFACTURING AN ARTICLE - A method of manufacturing an article including taking an article in an initial state formed using an additive manufacturing process, the article including at least one set of mounting features; performing a second manufacturing process to transform the article into a second state, which includes mounting, via the at least one set of mounting features, the article in a holding device of a machine for operating on the article, wherein the position and orientation of the article in three linear and three rotational degrees of freedom within the machine operating volume is known and defined by virtue of the interaction of the mounting features with the holding device, and processing at least one feature on the article. The at least one mounting feature includes kinematic mount features which engage with corresponding kinematic mount features on the holding device of the machine. | 04-02-2015 |
20150093720 | METHOD OF MANUFACTURING AN ARTICLE - A method of manufacturing an article, including taking an article formed in an initial state via an additive manufacturing process and performing a second manufacturing process to transform the article into a second state, which includes mounting the article in a holding device, processing at least one first feature on the article, which includes processing at least one set of mounting features on the article, re-mounting the article via the at least one set of mounting features, and then processing at least one second feature on the article. | 04-02-2015 |

20150017600 | UNIVERSAL SCANNING MEMBER FOR USE ON DENTAL IMPLANT AND DENTAL IMPLANT ANALOGS - A scanning member includes a head portion and a body portion. The head portion has an at least partially flat top surface indicative of a first characteristic of a dental implant, an at least partially flat first side surface indicative of a second characteristic of the dental implant, and a second non-flat side surface that opposes the first side surface. The body portion has a non-rotational feature configured to non-rotationally couple the body portion to the dental implant. The body portion is physically attached to a bottom surface of the head portion to form a generally âTâ shape. The scanning member has an internal through hole for receiving a screw to threadably couple with a threaded bore within the dental implant. A set of scanning members includes scanning members having different body portions configured to couple to dental implants from different manufacturers. | 01-15-2015 |

20140277104 | GRASPER WITH MAGNETICALLY-CONTROLLED POSITIONING - Described here are devices, systems, and methods for providing remote traction to tissue. Generally, the systems may comprise a grasper and a delivery device configured to releasably couple to the grasper. The grasper may have a first jaw and a second jaw and a main body having a barrel portion. The barrel portion may have a lumen extending therethrough, and a portion of the delivery device may be advanced through the lumen to rotate one or both of the jaws. The delivery devices may include a handle, a shaft, and a distal engagement portion. The delivery devices may further include an actuation rod which may be advanced through a barrel portion of a grasper to actuate the grasper. In some instances, the delivery device may further comprise a locking sheath, wherein the locking sheath is configured to temporarily couple to a grasper. | 09-18-2014 |

20120289837 | VARIABLE-STIFFNESS IMAGING WINDOW AND PRODUCTION METHOD THEREOF - An imaging window of an imaging catheter includes a first imaging window section and a second imaging window section. The first imaging window section has a finite length and is formed from a first material having a flexural modulus. The second imaging window section has a finite length and is formed from a second material having a flexural modulus. The flexural modulus of the first material is different than the flexural modulus of the second material. | 11-15-2012 |
20130253328 | CATHETER SHEATH AND METHODS THEREOF - A catheter a first sheath having a proximal end and a distal end, and a length extending between the proximal end and the distal end. The first sheath being devoid of any bonds between the proximal end and the distal end, and a flexural modulus of the first sheath varying along the length. A method of making a catheter having more than one flexural modulus. | 09-26-2013 |

20120245667 | ELECTRODE PAD AND CONNECTORS FOR ELECTROTHERAPY DEVICES - An electrode pad for an electrotherapy device is configured to be placed outside of a wound area for a patient. The electrode pad can include a first lobe of material and a second lobe of the material connected together at a non-conductive attachment area. The electrode pad can have a first electrode located within the first lobe of material, a second electrode located within the second lobe of material, a first wire that is electrically connected to the first electrode, and a second wire that is electrically connected to the second electrode. The first and second lobes are configured to be movable with respect to each other about the attachment area, and the first and second wires are configured to form an electrical connection between the first and second electrodes and the electrotherapy device. A ribbon cable can be configured to be attached to the attachment area at any angle. | 09-27-2012 |
