20160141123 | SYNTHETIC FAULT REMOTE DISCONNECT FOR A BRANCH CIRCUIT - A synthetic fault signal generator assembly is remotely located on a branch circuit downstream from a circuit breaker protecting a load. The synthetic fault signal generator assembly is configured to detect an improper circuit condition that is not independently detected, detectable, or actionable by the circuit breaker such as, for example, a load or outlet receptacle specific problem that can lead to equipment damage or property damage if not mitigated. In response to the improper circuit condition being detected, the synthetic fault signal generator assembly generates a synthetic fault signal, which causes the circuit breaker to trip. The synthetic fault signal generator assembly can inject the synthetic fault signal into the branch circuit to provide the synthetic fault signal to the circuit breaker. | 05-19-2016 |

20090143668 | ENHANCEMENT OF MRI IMAGE CONTRAST BY COMBINING PRE- AND POST-CONTRAST RAW AND PHASE SPOILED IMAGE DATA - An MRI process and system image a volume of a sample in a magnetic field established by a biasing field magnet and an array of gradient magnet fields using a pulse sequence to obtain a response that is decoded into an image or images. A set of successive images is collected while the contrast associated with lesions and tumors is enhanced with a contrast agent. A non-spoiled reference image is acquired before the application of the contrast agent. The reference image is non-spoiled in that the pulse sequence for collecting a portion of the volume image is not randomized in phase in a manner that would reset the phase effects of a previous pulse sequence. At least one other one of the successive images collected using phase spoiling pulse sequences. The non-spoiled image data is registered with and subtracted from the successive images to enhance the appearance of selected compositions in the output image, such as the contrast agent and/or water to highlight lesions and cysts, or silicone from an implant, etc., which can be highlighted by color coding. | 06-04-2009 |
20090143669 | COLOR MAPPED MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING - A method and system estimate the risk of malignancy of a given region of interest using noninvasive MRI techniques. The determination of risk is based on the morphology and kinetic enhancement of a region of interest. In addition, the method and system use the type of the enhancement curve to determine the level of risk associated with a given region of interest. The region of interest can be a lesion, tumor, or other unknown. The imaging can be done with the aid of a contrast agent. Regions meeting component concentration criteria, time-change dynamic criteria and the like are distinctly colored and displayed on a single image. Different colors can be shown locally to identify predetermined levels of risk, and/or associated with predetermined compositions such as contrast agents, or to show the presence of silicone. | 06-04-2009 |
