| 20100288059 | SPECIMEN CONTAINER, SYSTEM, AND METHOD - This invention relates to the collection and handling of biological or chemical specimens. The invention provides a device and a method for collecting and preparing patient samples, such as sputum, to be used in downstream diagnostics tests. The invention reduces the handling and exposure of healthcare workers to the sample by the use of a bag in which hermetic seals are utilized to separate sample aliquots. | 11-18-2010 |
| 20100291536 | SAMPLE PROCESSING CASSETTE, SYSTEM, AND METHOD - The present invention provides a method and device for collecting treating and analysis of biological or chemical material by introducing a source material into a specimen container, transferring the source material to a processing device and thermally, chemically and/or mechanically treating the source material to alter at least one constitutive characteristic of the source material and to release or create a target material from the source material. | 11-18-2010 |

| 20100014747 | Stent Inspection System - Apparatus, systems, and methods for inspecting longitudinal surfaces and sidewalls of cut tubes are disclosed. In some embodiments, the apparatus includes a line camera, the line camera being configured to capture images of longitudinal surfaces of the cut tubes, an area camera joined with the line camera, the area camera being configured to capture images of sidewalls of the cut tubes, a mandrel and drive, a multi-axis motion stage, a vertical motion stage, and a rotating motion stage. In some embodiments, the system includes a camera module, a tube positioning module, a motion control module, and an analysis module. In some embodiments, the method includes positioning a line and area cameras, moving the cut tubes, capturing images of the longitudinal surfaces and sidewalls of the cut tubes, providing comparable images of a template cut tube, and comparing the images of the cut tubes to those of the template cut tube. | 01-21-2010 |
| 20100053317 | System and method to illuminate and image the inside diameter of a stent - An optical system is effective to illuminate and scan an interior wall of an object having an interior bore, such as a stent. The system includes a light source, an object support having a light conducting portion, an image taking lens, and a line scan camera. The interior bore and the light conducting portion of the object support are in axial alignment with a center optical axis of the image taking lens. A drive mechanism engages the object without impacting the axial alignment. Various aspect of this optical system include a rotating wheel or transparent plate as the drive mechanism. The object support may be an opaque rod having a light conducting portion or a transparent rod. Electronics associated with this optical system include a rotary encoder engaging the drive system to drive an electric circuit capable of triggering the line scan camera in response to rotation of the object, thereby building a line by line image of the interior bore and the line scan camera connected to a computer-based imaging system effective to identify cosmetic and functional manufacturing defects. | 03-04-2010 |
