Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090000614Inflatable pad for medical system - Systems and methods for positioning a patient on a treatment couch of a surgical system are disclosed. The system includes a pressure sensor and a pad having a plurality of selectively inflatable chambers. The inflation of the chambers can be dynamically and/or automatically adjusted in response to sensed pressure changes.01-01-2009
20090092228IMAGING GEOMETRY FOR IMAGE-GUIDED RADIOSURGERY - A system and method for stereoscopically imaging a patient at multiple locations with a radiation treatment system using a common imaging center.04-09-2009
20090252301METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PATIENT LOADING AND UNLOADING - A method and apparatus of a positioning system are described to position an upper-half of a body relative to a head-end of a couch. The positioning system may be a patient positioning system and may include a treatment couch, a leg rest coupled to the treatment couch, and a drive mechanism coupled to the leg rest. The patient positioning system may also include a treatment couch, having a base portion of a treatment couch and plurality of detachable portions of the treatment couch. The plurality of detachable portions to adjust a height of the treatment couch to accommodate differing heights of patients.10-08-2009

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090083868Increasing lifespan by modulation of WWP-1 and UBC-18 - Ubiquitin ligase wwp-1 and ubiquitin conjugating enzyme ubc-18 are identified in nematodes as mediators of dietary restriction induced longevity and therefore as targets for modulation of lifespan in animals. Methods of screening for compounds that modulate longevity by assaying wwp-1 ubiquitination pathway parameters are provided, as are related systems. In addition, methods of using wwp-1 and/or ubc-18 to modulate longevity or delay onset of age-related diseases are described.03-26-2009

20090191089Gold alloy compositions formed by environmentally friendly process - Rose-color and yellow-color gold alloys are formed from a gold-base alloy containing silver and copper. Mining these elements is usually highly detrimental to the environmental. Environmentally friendly alloys are obtained through the use of recycled elements and elements recovered from mines utilizing specific guidelines. Jewelry manufactured from these environmentally friendly alloys may be more receptive to a consumer, resulting in a competitive advantage.07-30-2009
