摘要:
A therapy apparatus has a source of acoustic waves which generates acoustic waves focused onto a focus and which has an x-ray-transparent region, and the focus lying in an isocenter and an x-ray locating system whose central ray proceeds through the isocenter and is adjustable relative to the source in a locating sequence such that a subject to be treated is irradiated by locating radiation from different directions, with the central ray in one of the irradiation directions proceeding through the x-ray transparent region and the acoustic wave source is maintained stationary during the sequence. A corresponding method is also disclosed.
摘要:
A therapy station for treatment of a patient with focused acoustic waves has a source of focused acoustic waves attached to a source carrier, an x-ray carrier carrying an x-ray locating system, and a support table for the patient. The x-ray carrier is pivotably attached to the source carrier so as to be pivotable relative to the source of acoustic waves and such that the central ray of the x-ray locating system always proceeds through the focus of the focused acoustic waves, and the source carrier is adjustable relative to the support table in a plane.

A guidance system for a medical facility includes at least one floor element that extends along a path of the medical facility and is arranged in a floor area of the path. The at least one floor element is configured for magnetic interaction such that through the magnetic interaction of the floor element with a magnetic guide element arranged on a mobile transport device, a magnetic attraction is generated. The mobile transport device is guided along the at least one floor element by the generated magnetic attraction during forward motion of the mobile transport device along the path through the medical facility.

The invention relates to a body made of ceramic materials, having a basic metallization made of at least one electrically conductive material, such as tungsten/glass or molybdenum/glass compounds and an adhesive, electrically conductive and corrosion-resistant coating. In order to improve energy losses, which is to say to increase the Q-factor, it is proposed that the coating comprises/carries at least one functional layer made of a metal or several metals, having lower specific electrical resistance than the electrically conductive material and the remaining constituents of the coating.
摘要:
The invention relates to a method for generating a medical image with at least one emission source and at least one detector of a medical imaging system, with the radiation from the emission source penetrating the object and attenuated by the object being detected by the detector to generate the medical image as a mapping of the object structure. The invention also relates to a medical imaging system for the generation of image data as a basis for the generation of a medical image. By the provision of a freely positionable emission source and a detector, the possibility of expanding the overlap area of the radiation thus detected up to the structural limits of the medical imaging system is provided. A volume image data record, e.g. a computer tomography (CT), thus forms the complete investigation object located between the emission source and the detector.
摘要:
The invention relates to a radiotherapy assembly comprising a particle emitter (2) with an exit window (4) for a fixed particle stream (6) and a patient support device (16) comprising a patient couch (18A, 18B), which can be brought into an irradiation position that is suitable for irradiating a patient (22) in front of the exit window (4). An X-ray diagnostic device (8) determines or verifies the position of a tumour that is to be irradiated, said device (8) comprising an X-ray source (12) and a detector (14), which can be displaced in the area around the patient couch (18A, 18B) that has been placed in the irradiation position. The assembly permits the location of a tumour to be verified in the irradiation position, thus rendering a relocation of the patient unnecessary.
摘要:
A urological workstation has a patient support table with a support plate having a length which does not significantly exceed 145 cm, and an x-ray diagnostics installation that is adjustable relative to the patient support table. The x-ray diagnostics installation is adjustable relative to the patient support table such that its central ray is shifted along the longitudinal axis of the support table through positions which are parallel to each other.

Block polymers usable as defoamers have the following formula ##STR1## in which R represents a glycerol or polyglycerol function having a degree of polymerization x of from 1 to 6 and the indices y is equal to (x-z+2), z is equal to (x-y+2), a is equal to 1 to 15, b is equal to 50 to 200 c is equal to 1 to 15, d is equal to 20 to 150 and e is equal to 1 to 15, with the proviso that the sums (a+c+e) is equal to 2 to 20, (b+d) is equal to 50 to 250 and (c+e) is equal to 1 to 15, and y has a value of at least 1.The block polymers are prepared by reaction of glycerol or polyglycerol having a degree of polymerization x with ethylene oxide, then with propylene oxide and, finally, again with ethylene oxide, preferably in the presence of alkaline etherification catalysts.
摘要:
The temperature sensor is particularly suitable for a fever thermometer which has outer dimensions of, for example, 4 mm diameter and 40 mm length. To provide the requisite stiffness, the outer sleeve is made of stainless steel or specialty steel of thin walls, for example less than 0.1 mm wall thickness, closed at one end, and the temperature sensor is positioned essentially exposed, and naked at the end of a positioning body formed of two half-sections of low-density foam material, in which a longitudinal groove is formed, through which the connecting wires of the temperature sensor extend. The longitudinal groove can be filled by a springy element, for example unitary with one of the half-sleeves, or a separate positioning rod. The connecting ends of the sensor conductors can be connected to a coaxial cable, and the end portion can have a handle plastic-molded thereabout. The exposed positioning of the sensor, adhesively connected to the inner end of the sensor tube, provides for low heat capacity, high heat transfer, and the foam filling additionally contributes to heat sensitivity.
摘要:
A positioning device for positioning a load is provided. The positioning device includes a motor, a measuring device, and an evaluation device. The measuring device is associated with the motor, and is operable to ascertain measurement data that characterizes the motor current consumption by the motor in the positioning of the load. The evaluation device evaluates the measurement data that have been ascertained by the measuring device, so that in that way the loading of the positioning device by the load can be ascertained.
