Els De Backer, Schellebelle BE

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20080310456Communication System over a Power Line Distribution Network - The present disclosure provides a system for receiving signals over a power line distribution. Typically, problems of noise and interference are being solved at the receiver side. Systems of the present disclosure, however, are not limited to the receiver-side solution. Systems according to the present disclosure may also be used at the transmitter side. The receiver comprises a high pass filter, a preselect crossover filter, and an analog front-end receiver architecture.12-18-2008

20120072193METHOD FOR DETERMINING TREATMENTS USING PATIENT-SPECIFIC LUNG MODELS AND COMPUTER METHODS - The present invention concerns a method for determining optimised parameters for mechanical ventilation, MV, of a subject, comprising: a) obtaining data concerning a three-dimensional image of the subject's respiratory system; b) calculating a specific three-dimensional structural model of the subject's lung structure from the image data obtained in step a); c) calculating a specific three-dimensional structural model of the subject's airway structure from the image data obtained in step a); d) calculating a patient-specific three-dimensional structural model of the subject's lobar structure from the lung model obtained in step b); e) modeling by a computer, the air flow through the airway, using the models of the airway and lobar structure of the subject obtained in steps c) and d) at defined MV parameters; f) modeling by a computer, the structural behavior of the airway and the interaction with the flow, using the models of the airway and lobar structure of the subject obtained in steps b) and c) at defined MV parameters; g) determining the MV parameters which lead to a decrease in airway resistance and hence an increase in lobar mass flow for the same driving pressures according to the model of step d), thereby obtaining optimized MV parameters. It also relates to a method for assessing the efficacy of a treatment for a respiratory condition.03-22-2012

20110038798AGENTS FOR DETECTING AND IMAGING CELL DEATH - This invention relates to molecular imaging agents comprising an S78C mutant synaptotagmin I C2A domain. These agents may be useful in detecting or assessing cell death in vitro and in vivo, for example in tumours following cancer treatment.02-17-2011

Mark De Backer, Armada, MI US

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100244445SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR GENERATING POWER FROM A FAN - A system for generating power for a vehicle is provided. The system comprises a fan positioned to receive a flow of air, a turbine coupled to the fan, the turbine adapted to rotate the fan when operating in a first mode and to receive power from the fan when operating in a second mode, the turbine adapted to generate electrical power from the power received from the fan, and an electronic control unit adapted to selectively engage the first and second modes of the turbine.09-30-2010
