20090119346AUTOMATIC ERROR CORRECTION FOR REPLICATION AND INSTANTANEOUS INSTANTIATION - An approach is provided to automatically resolve conflict between instantiation and ongoing data replication operations. In an embodiment, incremental change records that describe one or more database operations are received at a sink entity. Here, all of the one or more database operations have occurred in a second database after a particular time. A first database operation in the one or more database operations to a particular row in the first database is applied. When a conflict with a second database operation that operates on the particular row is detected, one or more compensating actions, which may, but are not limited to, be a different database operation and/or an operation that creates a conflict log entry, may be performed. Here, the second database operation has occurred in the second database prior to the particular time. When the second database operation is to be performed, an appropriate operation may be performed.05-07-2009

20100092944DETECTION OF INFLUENZA VIRUS - The present application describes methods for detecting influenza A and/or influenza B and/or distinguishing between pathogenic and seasonal influenza A subtypes. Many of these preferred formats employ pan-specific antibodies (i.e., that react with all or at least multiple strains within an influenza type) to detect presence of influenza A and/or influenza B and PDZ domains in combination with panspecific antibodies to influenza A to distinguish pathogenic and seasonal influenza A subtypes.04-15-2010

20090072826MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING WITH BIPOLAR MULTI-ECHO SEQUENCES - A method for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is provided. A magnetic resonance excitation is provided. A plurality of k-space echoes is acquired bi-directionally wherein at least one echo is an even echo acquired in a first direction and at least one echo is an odd echo acquired in a second direction opposite from the first direction. K-space echo realignment is corrected between the even and odd echoes. Field inhomogeneity induced artifacts are corrected. Chemical shift induced artifacts between at least two species are corrected.03-19-2009
20090174403FIELD MAP ESTIMATION FOR SPECIES SEPARATION - A method for mapping field inhomogeneity for forming a magnetic resonance image is provided. A magnetic resonance excitation is applied. A plurality of k-space echoes signals is acquired. A periodic cost function is calculated from the acquired plurality of k-space echo signals. A period of the calculated periodic cost function is divided into multiple regions. A search algorithm is used to locate a local minimum in each region. Located local minimums are chosen to provide global smoothness.07-09-2009
20100033179DISTORTION-FREE MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING NEAR METALLIC IMPLANTS - A method for 3D magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with slice-direction distortion correction is provided. One or more selective cross-sections with a thickness along a first axis is excited using a RF pulse with a bandwidth, wherein a selective cross-section is either a selective slice or selective slab. A refocusing pulse is applied to form a spin echo. One or more 2D encoded image signals are acquired with readout along a second axis and phase encoding along a third axis. Slice-direction distortion is corrected by resolving the position by resolving the frequency offset.02-11-2010
