Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100100849USER INTERFACE SYSTEMS AND METHODS - Systems and methods for providing user interfaces are disclosed. In certain embodiments, a menu having a number of icons can be provided on a display device such that the icons are arranged around an initial cursor position, or an area that is touched by a user's finger or stylus, for example. Due to the icons being arranged around the initial cursor position, any one of the icons from the menu can be chosen with relatively small cursor movement. In certain embodiments, the menu can be divided into regions that overlap with the icons, such that cursor movement from the initial cursor position into a given region has a similar effect as movement into the corresponding icon itself (without actually moving the cursor onto the desired icon).04-22-2010
20100138239SYSTEM AND METHOD OF PROVIDING DYNAMIC AND CUSTOMIZABLE MEDICAL EXAMINATION FORMS - A system and method of providing dynamic and customizable medical forms is disclosed. In certain specific embodiments, these dynamic and customizable medical forms may be automatically presented to users based on a predefined series of rules which allow multiple users having different roles in the clinical process to collaborate and contribute to a medical examination report, while at the same time maintaining an independent record of what was contributed and by whom it was contributed.06-03-2010
20100201714SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR VIEWING MEDICAL IMAGES - For certain medical images, it is important and/or required that a user view all of a medical image at full resolution so that minute, but important, indicia in the medical image are not missed. A computing systems monitor the portions of the medical image that are displayed on the display device, notates those portions that have been displayed at full resolution (or other user-defined display parameters), and provides the user with information indicating portions that have not been viewed at full resolution and/or provides information indicating for which images of a multiple image examination full pixel display has been accomplished. The process reduces the possibility of missing an abnormality in a medical image due to the viewer not viewing a portion of the image at full resolution or using other user-defined display parameters.08-12-2010
20100299157SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR COMMUNICATION OF MEDICAL INFORMATION - A system for transferring medical records from one or more source locations to a destination location is described. The system includes a plurality of medical site clients, each of which has access to medical records at a corresponding medical site, and an exam distribution server connected to each of the plurality of medical site clients via a network. The exam distribution server configured to receive an exam transfer request that specifies exam criteria and the destination location to which medical exams that have the criteria should be transferred. When the exam distribution server receives an exam transfer request, the server forwards the request to the medical site clients. When one of the medical site clients receives an exam transfer request, the medical site client sends all exam records meeting the criteria of the exam transfer request to the exam distribution server, and the exam distribution server forwards received exam records to the destination specified in the exam transfer request.11-25-2010
20110016430SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR INTERLEAVING SERIES OF MEDICAL IMAGES - After selecting two or more image series for comparison, images of the image series are interleaved so that they are alternatively displayed in a comparison pane on a display device. In one embodiment, after one or more image series are selected for comparison, an interleaved image series is created containing each of the images of the one or more selected image series, or, alternatively, the interleaved image series comprises links to the images arranged in the interleaved pattern. If differences exist in the images of the multiple image series, these differences may be more easily detectable as the display device cycles between the images. Comparison of images in an interleaved image series may be more advantageous if the images of each selected image series are of a common anatomical area, common image size, and the images are in the same order.01-20-2011

20090065130POSITIVE PRESSURE SHEAR IMPREGNATOR AND WETOUT - Systems and methods are described where at least one roller (e.g., a kicker roller) is used to impregnate fibers (i.e., a charge or reinforcement) with a liquid resin (i.e., matrix) by eliminating air from the resin and fibers as they enter a pressurized zone. Air is forced out as the resin is first drawn into an entry zone of the roller, then into an entry gap adjacent to the roller, and then into the pressurized zone on the opposite side of the roller. The pressurized zone is an enclosed area at the output side of the roller where the resin is allowed to accumulate and the resin and composite combination are then forced out through a small exit gap. Shear forces between the surface of the quickly rotating driven roller and the resin provide the driving force. The fibers may be continuous (e.g., from a roller) or discontinuous or loose cut.03-12-2009
20100294096FIBER CUTTING DEVICE - A fiber cutting device is disclosed having a cutting head with one or more blades disposed across a surface of the cutting head and disposed to rotate about a cutting head axis. An anvil roller is disposed and driven to rotate about an anvil axis and has a surface in momentary contact with each the one or more blades of the cutting head. Fibers are delivered to the device across a feeder. A feed control toggle may be moved to a stop position, where a first end of the feed control toggle presses the plurality of fibers against the feeder to stop motion of the fibers and prevent cutting. Contact with the anvil roller to draw the fibers between the cutting head and the anvil may also be controlled by the feed control toggle. A flap for sliding contact between the fibers and the anvil may also be used.11-25-2010

20090294121PULSE FRACTURING DEVICE AND METHOD - A method of inducing fracture in at least a portion of a geologic structure includes inducing acoustic waves into a fluid medium present in a borehole extending at least partially into the structure. Embodiments may include preheating or pressurizing the fluid medium prior to inducing the acoustic wave therein. A device for fracturing at least a portion of a geologic structure includes electrodes for producing a spark to generate ordinary acoustic waves in the fluid medium. Embodiments may include structures for preheating or pressurizing the fluid medium prior to inducing the acoustic wave therein.12-03-2009

20100159766PTFE FABRIC ARTICLES AND METHODS OF MAKING SAME - Unique PTFE fabric and laminate structures, and methods for making the same, are described. Particularly, the invention comprises a laminate of a fabric comprising a plurality of PTFE fibers overlapping at intersections, wherein at least a portion of the intersections have PTFE masses extending from at least one of the overlapping PTFE fibers, and which lock the overlapping PTFE fibers together, bonded to a membrane by at least said PTFE masses. Such reinforced membranes exhibit exceptionally high bond strength, a particularly valuable attribute in applications in which durability is important.06-24-2010
