Apparatus and a method for treating an irregularity in a wall of a vessel of a patient defined by an irregular or afflicted wall portion with adjacent normal wall portions comprises a catheter having a distal end portion for being guided through the vessel to the site of the irregularity. A balloon associated with said distal end portion of the catheter for selective inflating to contact the walls of the vessel urges a stent carried by the distal end portion of the catheter in a constricted condition for passage through the vessel into an expanded form with the stent spanning the afflicted wall portion and contacting the adjacent wall portions. The catheter is formed with lumens for inflating the balloon, for receiving a guidewire for guiding the catheter through the vessel, and for connecting a port in the catheter proximate the afflicted wall portion to enable delivery of a therapeutic agent into the vessel to contact the stent and the irregular wall portion.

摘要:
A system and method for receiving a first set of data for a plurality of aircraft landings at an airport, receiving a second set of data corresponding to the plurality of aircraft landings at the airport, the second set of data being received from a passive radar data source and comparing the first set of data to the second set of data to generate rules for analyzing additional data received from the passive radar data source. Also, a system and method for receiving passive data for an aircraft, receiving actual data for the aircraft, comparing the passive data to the actual data based on a set of rules and assigning a confidence level to the passive data based on the comparison.
摘要:
Embodiments disclosed herein include a condenser stack having a cross-flow plate with a plurality of transverse slots, and first and second microchannel plates mounted to the cross-flow plate. In some embodiments, the microchannel plates may have a plurality of microchannels that allow for the flow of the refrigerant substantially through the plurality of microchannels in a direction generally perpendicular to the plurality of transverse slots. In some embodiments, the condenser stack may be implemented in an apparatus, such as a heat sink assembly, and in a refrigerator system. Moreover, embodiments for a method for manufacturing the condenser stack and apparatus are described. Other embodiments are also described.
摘要:
Described are a system and a method for airport noise monitoring. The system may include (a) a data receiving arrangement receiving, from a data source, information corresponding to an airport; (b) a data comparing arrangement comparing the received information to noise rules; and (c) an alert generating arrangement generating a noise alert based on the comparison of the received information to the noise rules.
摘要:
A medical device system that is insertable in a body lumen for treating and/or preventing injury to a body lumen wall is disclosed. The system comprises a stent comprising a sidewall having a first edge and a second edge, and a balloon capable of being disposed within the sidewall. The balloon has a first end portion that is capable of contacting the first edge of the sidewall and a second end portion that is capable of contacting the second edge of the sidewall when the balloon is expanded. At least the first end portion of the balloon comprises a first biologically active material. When the balloon is expanded, the first end portion of the balloon extends axially beyond the first edge of the sidewall in order to deliver the first biologically active material to a portion of the body lumen wall that is adjacent to the first edge of the sidewall. Methods for deploying the system are also disclosed.
摘要:
A passenger kiosk, comprising a computing arrangement receiving data from a plurality of data feed arrangements, the data including airport operational parameters for an airport facility, a set of advertisements and inventory management rules and a kiosk display displaying one of the advertisements based on one of the airport operational parameters and one of the inventory management rules.
摘要:
The present invention relates generally to medical devices, preferably a stent, comprising an amount of one or more therapeutic agents, preferably paclitaxel, useful for preventing or treating a disease or condition associated with cell proliferation and/or migration. In particular, the invention relates to medical devices that is capable of releasing a cytostatic amount of paclitaxel that is effective to arrest smooth muscle cells in their G1/S phase without killing the cells. The medical devices can also release paclitaxel at a predetermined rate. Methods of making and using the medical devices are also provided.
