| 20090131735 | Implant Comprising Radioactive Seeds - The present disclosure relates to an implant comprising at least two sheets of a biocompatible material, and at least one radioactive seed disposed between said sheets of material. The disclosure also relates to a method for treating a patient, comprising fixing to the tissue of the patient at least one implant comprising at least two sheets of a biocompatible material, and at least one radioactive seed disposed between said sheets of material. | 05-21-2009 |
| 20090216065 | Radiation Containing Seeds and Method for High Visibility Magnetic Imaging - A radioactive seed and method for making a radioactive seed with selective magnetic imaging characteristics are provided. The seed comprises a housing which may include a metal shell for at least partially enclosing a radioactive material. The shell encloses a rod having a nickel layer with a phosphorous content, wherein the phosphorous content comprises a level of phosphorous sufficient, when the seed is implanted in tissue, to provide a defined magnetic resonance signature of the seed while substantially eliminating gross artifacts in the magnetic resonance image. | 08-27-2009 |
| 20090312593 | Radioactive Device for treatment of a Tumor - An apparatus in one example has a treatment balloon or similar device that may be implanted into a tumor bed or cavity, and filled with or carrying a radioactive material. | 12-17-2009 |
| 20100200778 | PACKAGING SYSTEM FOR BRACHYTHERAPY IMPLANT - The present disclosure relates to a thermo formed tray having an upper half and a lower half. The upper half and the lower half define a closed configuration when the upper half and the lower half are substantially adjacent one another and an open configuration when the upper half and the lower half are substantially apart from one another. A predetermined area is provided in at least one of the upper half and the lower half for containing a product in the closed configuration, the product having at least one radioactive seed held in a predetermined seed configuration. At least one cutter guide is contained in the thermoformed tray. | 08-12-2010 |
| 20100228074 | Therapeutic and Directionally Dosed Implants - The present disclosure relates to an implant comprising at least one sheet of a biocompatible material, at least one shielding apparatus fixed to the biological material, and at least one radioactive seed partially disposed in the shielding apparatus. The disclosure also relates to a method for treating a patient, comprising fixing to the tissue of the patient at least one implant comprising at least one sheet of a biocompatible material, at least one shielding apparatus fixed to the biological material, and at least one radioactive seed partially disposed in the shielding apparatus. | 09-09-2010 |
| 20110054235 | PACKAGING SYSTEM FOR BRACHYTHERAPY IMPLANT AND CUTTING THEREOF - The present disclosure relates to a thermo formed tray having an upper half and a lower half. The upper half and the lower half define a closed configuration when the upper half and the lower half are substantially adjacent one another and an open configuration when the upper half and the lower half are substantially apart from one another. A predetermined area is provided in at least one of the upper half and the lower half for containing a product in the closed configuration, the product having at least one radioactive seed held in a predetermined seed configuration. At least one cutter guide is contained in the thermo formed tray. | 03-03-2011 |
