Novel, non-toxic cobalt-based contrast and imaging agents for use in enhanced medical imaging modalities and processes are described, as well the manufacture of markers containing such contrast agents is described, and uses for such imaging markers and contrast agents in a variety of therapeutic applications and devices.
摘要:
A multiprocessor digital data processing system comprises a plurality of processing cells arranged in a hierarchy of rings. The system selectively allocates storage and moves exclusive data copies from cell to cell in response to access requests generated by the cells. Routing elements are employed to selectively broadcast data access requests, updates and transfers on the rings.

The invention provides a device for puncturing a sealed container, and a container which includes that device. The puncture device includes a body member for releasable attachment to the container over a seal on the container, and a puncture member for puncture of the seal. The invention provides child resistant, tamper-proof containers which can easily be opened by handicapped adults and the elderly.
摘要:
An associative memory having an associativity of 2.sup.q, where (q) is an integer greater than or equal to one, is provided for storing information relating to data. The memory includes (n) tables, each having a plurality of entries for storing signals associated with data descriptors having a common set portion and common other portions. The entries of table (k), where (k) represents successive integers between (1) and (n-1), store pointers to respective entries of table (k+1). The entries of table (1) are arranged for access as a function of the common set portion and the common portion (1) with which they are respectively associated. The entries of the other tables are arranged for access as a function of (i) a value of the common set portion, (ii) a value of a pointer-respresentative signal of the respective table (m-1) entry means, and (iii) the value of the common portion(m) with which such table(m) entry means is respectively associated. The entries of table(n) store information relating to one or more data having a common portion(n).
摘要:
A digital data processing system includes a plurality of central processor units which share and access a common memory through a memory management element. The memory management element permits, inter alia, data in the common memory to be accessed in at least two modes. In the first mode, all central processing units requesting access to a given datum residing in memory are signalled of the datum's existence. In the second mode, only selected central processing units requesting access to a resident datum are notified that it exists, while others requesting access to the datum are signalled that it does not exist. The common memory can include a plurality of independent memory elements, each coupled to and associated with, a respective one of the central processing units. A central processing unit can include a post-store element for effecting the transfer of copies of data stored in its associated memory element to a memory element associated with another central processing unit.
摘要:
A tightly coupled computer system which provides for data coherency and includes an addressable main memory for storing blocks of data, a plurality of processors for accessing the blocks of data, each of the processors having an addressable cache memory for storing a number of blocks of data, a bus for intercoupling the plurality of processors with the addressable main memory and for intercoupling each of the plurality of processors with any other of the plurality of processors, and wherein only one of the plurality of processors and addressable main memory is a current owner of an address of a block of data, wherein the current owner has the correct data for the owned address, and wherein the ownership of an address is dynamically changeable among the addressable main memory and the plurality of processors.
摘要:
A contrast marker having a casing and a novel MRI contrast agent comprising metal complexes disposed around, within, or abuting the casing is provided. Such contrast markers may be placed in a strand, with or without a therapy seed, to produce a seeded strand useful for imaging and in connection with brachytherapy.
