Also, onsite is a CAD/CAM milling unit and the accessory hardware equipment, and the technology used for creating a rapid prototype medical and dental modeling The present invention also includes other technologies and equipment to improve the productivity of the medial and dental outpatient diagnostic imaging center. The unique equipment configuration and the machine sequence pattern offers many benefits to healthcare delivery in that it provides a service for both the fields of medicine and dentistry.
摘要:
A method for encoding compressed graphics video information and decoding such information. The method consists of enriching the video information in zeros through shifting and Exclusive ORing video with itself. A number of methods are attempted in the shifting and Exclusive ORing process in order to determine the method which yields the optimum zero enriched image. The zero enriched image is then encoded and the encoded information stored. Upon retrieval, the information is decoded and an Exclusive OR and shifting process is done to obtain the original video information.

In one aspect of the invention, a computer-implemented method may include maintaining in a computer system, a plurality of relationships among users in an aggregated data network. A user may receive a plurality of data points, where at least one of the data points, was requested via a relationship inquiry, made using a Health Insurance Portability and accountability Act (HIPAA) compliant security clearance user interface. The computer-implemented method may generate a Global Patient Health Record Timeline (GPHRT), comprising a chronological representation of one or more of the received data points, by utilizing their time stamps to correctly order the data points. The computer-implemented method may include an interactive holographic display system, to render the GPHRT as a holographically produced image. The user may be able to manipulate and navigate the holographic image via gestures and haptic feedback.
摘要:
A flow controller is provided that detects intervals between successive drops and responds to detection of intervals which are too long by shutting down operation of the administration set if the abnormal flow causing the long interval cannot be corrected. In response to detection of abnormal flow which is not clearly a high flow condition and/or an empty container, the flow controller sequentially opens, closes, re-opens and again closes the clamp of the controller in an attempt to restore normal flow. If normal flow is restarted before the sequence is completed, the controller returns to normal control of the fluid flow. Otherwise, completion of the sequence results in a shutdown of the system and activation of an alarm. In keeping with the invention, indicia are provided in connection with the drop chambers of the administration sets which are sensed by sensing means mounted to the drop detector of the flow controller in order to indicate to the controller the size of the orifice in the drop chamber. In addition, a plurality of drop sensors are provided which cooperate to provide a reliable drop signal for angles approaching 30 degrees from vertical.

Low bulk density alumina consisting essentially of pseudoboehmite can be produced by forming aqueous solutions of sodium aluminate and aluminium sulphate having concentrations within defined ranges, controlling the rate of introduction of the sodium aluminate solution into a body of the aluminium sulphate solution and agitation of the mixture such that a substantial proportion of hydrous alumina precipitates under acidic conditions, controlling the temperature of the mixture, and controlling the length of time of alkaline ageing. The hydrous alumina is then filtered, preferably water washed, and then dried. The low bulk density alumina is useful as a catalyst base, particularly for hydrodesulphurization catalysts.
摘要:
An intervertebral implant device is presented that may comprise a pair of substantially parallel opposed arcuate surfaces, a pair of substantially parallel opposed frictional surfaces each including a plurality of raised structures, a substantially curved end wall joining the par of parallel opposed arcuate surfaces, and a substantially recessed end wall joining the pair of parallel opposed arcuate surfaces. In certain embodiments, the intervertebral implant device defines one or more voids in which a bone graft material is selectively disposed. Preferably, the substantially recessed end wall is configured to selectively and pivotable receive one or more surgical implantation devices.

Fluid delivery devices, systems and methods. Some of the fluid delivery devices include a body, a cannula and a septum, and are suited for enabling the delivery of fluid to a user.
摘要:
A fabrication tool presses a first device surface against a second device surface after the first and the second device surfaces have been plasma activated, to bond the first device surface with the second device surface. The fabrication tool includes a bonding piston to exert force on the first device surface to press the first device surface against the second device surface. The fabrication tool also includes a pressure plate situated between the bonding piston and the first device surface. The fabrication tool further includes a mechanism to ensure that the force exerted by the bonding piston on the first device surface via the pressure plate is initially exerted at one or more first locations on the first device surface and subsequently exerted at one or more second locations on the first device surface.
摘要:
A common engine speed control mechanism for small internal combustion engines, which may be configured to allow for actuation of the speed control mechanism between stop, idle, and various engine running speed positions by actuation of one of a selected plurality of speed control levers. Each of the plurality of speed control levers is oriented so that it is movable in a direction which is substantially non-parallel to the direction of movement of the other speed control levers. In one embodiment, the actuation of the common speed control mechanism can be accomplished by movement of a first speed control lever in a substantially horizontal, side-to-side direction or by movement of a second speed control lever in a substantially vertical, up-and-down direction.
