| 20080231504 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROCESSING COMPLEX INTERFEROMETRIC SAR DATA - A computer system for processing interferometric synthetic aperture radar (SAP) images includes a database for storing SAR images to be processed, and a processor for processing interferometric SAR images from the database. The processing includes receiving first and second complex SAR data sets of a same scene, with the second complex SAR data set being offset in phase with respect to the first complex SAR data set. Each complex SAR data set includes a plurality of pixels. An interferogram is formed based on the first and second complex SAR data sets for providing a phase difference therebetween. A complex anisotropic diffusion algorithm is applied to the interferogram. The interferogram includes a real and an imaginary part for each pixel. A shock filter is applied to the interferogram. The processing further includes performing a two-dimensional variational phase unwrapping on the interferogram after application of the shock filter. | 09-25-2008 |

| 20090062140 | METHOD FOR IDENTIFYING CELLS BASED ON DNA REPLICATION DOMAIN TIMING PROFILES - Methods for identifying and/or distinguishing a homogeneous population of cells based on their replication domain timing profile using high resolution genomic arrays or sequencing procedures are provided. These methods may be used to compare the replication timing profile for a population of cells to another replication timing profile(s), a replication timing fingerprint, and/or one or more informative segments of a replication timing fingerprint, which may be simultaneously or previously determined and/or contained in a database, to determine whether there is a match between them. Based on such information, the identity of the population of cells may be determined, or the identity of the population of cells may be distinguished from other populations of cells or cell types. Methods for determining a replication timing fingerprint for particular cell types are also provided. | 03-05-2009 |

| 20090114689 | Removable storage tub apparatus for a marine vessel - A removable storage tube for a marine vessel includes a hatch frame shaped to fitted in a hatch opening in a marine vessel. The hatch frame has a plurality of spaced downwardly angled notches spaced around the interior edge of the frame. A tub has an open top and a rim portion around the open top and is shaped to fit into the hatch frame. The tub has a plurality of attachment lugs on the rim portion, each lug has a pair of downwardly converging exterior sides sized to wedge into one of the hatch frame notches. Each hatch frame notch has a pair of downwardly converging interior sides, each having an outwardly angled exterior edge while each tub lug has a pair downwardly converging exterior sides each having an outwardly angled exterior edge sized to wedge into a hatch frame notch so that a hatch tub is removably mounted in a marine vessel hatch. The hatch frame has a hatch door hingedly attached thereto for closing the hatch with or without the storage tub therein. | 05-07-2009 |

| 20100172115 | APPARATUS FOR ELECTROMAGENTICALLY SHIELDING A PORTION OF A CIRCUIT BOARD - An apparatus for electrically shielding electronic components is provided. The apparatus includes a circuit board having a first surface with a plurality of electronic components mounted on the first surface, the first surface having a first region and a second region. The circuit board comprises a ground plane and a trace on the first surface coupled to at least one electronic component in the first region and coupled to at least one electronic component in the second region. The circuit board also comprising a strip of conductive material on the first surface, the strip of conductive material forming a perimeter around the first region of the circuit board, the strip of conductive material coupled to the ground plane, the strip of conductive material defining at least one gap wherein the trace is oriented through the at least one gap. Additionally, a first filtering device is coupled to the trace on a first side of the gap. The apparatus also includes a cover composed of a conductive material for the first region of the circuit board. The cover comprises a contact surface configured to contact the strip of conductive material on the circuit board. The contact surface has at least one notch. The at least one gap of the circuit board is configured to align with the at least one notch of the cover when the cover is installed on the circuit board. | 07-08-2010 |

| 20090054873 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR CONNECTING AND DISCONNECTING FLEXIBLE TUBING - A laser strikes and aseptically heats or sterilizes the end of two flexible tube ends for connection. Tube holders are pushed toward each other to bring the tube ends into contact. A weld detector checks the characteristics of the weld. A laser optics assembly may be used to chance the direction of the lacer and focus the laser at the tube ends. In addition, a crimping device is used to compress a single flexible tube for disconnection. The laser strikes the compressed area. The crimping device continues to pinch the area and forms a seal in the tube. The tube is separated into two tube segments, each segment has a sealed end. | 02-26-2009 |

| 20080200868 | DIALYSIS SYSTEM HAVING VIDEO DISPLAY WITH AMBIENT LIGHT ADJUSTMENT - A medical therapy machine includes: an enclosure; a medical therapy machine component located inside the enclosure; a video monitor supported by the enclosure and displaying at least one of information and indicia relating to the medical therapy; an ambient light sensor positioned with respect to the enclosure so as to be able to sense a level of ambient light impinging the enclosure; and a logic implementor configured to control a level of backlight brightness for the video monitor based on the level of ambient light sensed by the sensor. | 08-21-2008 |
| 20090012449 | FLUID DELIVERY SYSTEM WITH AUTOCONNECT FEATURES - A fluid dispensing machine, such as a peritoneal dialysis or hemodialysis machine, includes a dispenser or cassette that pumps a medical fluid for dialysis or other treatments for patients. The machine includes and uses an autoconnect device for connecting containers of liquid, such as bags of dialysis fluid or medication fluids, to the machine, while maintaining the sterility of the connection. The autoconnect device removes the cap from the fluid bag and pierces the scaling membrane on tubing from the bag. This makes it easier for patients to receive treatment, especially home treatment. Other embodiments are useful for dispensing other liquids from other types of dispensing or pumping machines. | 01-08-2009 |
