摘要： Blood from a patient is treated extracorporeally by any selected one of a plurality of predetermined treatments. Each of the treatments involves the flow of blood from the patient into a primary chamber of a filtration unit, past a semipermeable membrane located in the filtration unit which separates the primary chamber from a secondary chamber of the filtration unit, out the filtration unit and back to the patient. A replacement fluid is selectively and controllably added to the blood, as required for the selected treatment. A secondary fluid is controllably and selectively introduced into the secondary chamber of the filtration unit for controllably collecting material passing across the semipermeable membrane from the blood or for supplying material to pass across the semipermeable membrane into the blood as required for the selected treatment. Materials are removed from the secondary chamber and collected in accordance with the selected treatment. Blood leaks into the secondary chamber are automatically detected and the rates of blood and fluid flow automatically adjusted in response thereto. An apparatus which automatically performs and monitors the selected treatment is also described.

摘要： Apparatus for detecting a dry bearing condition utilizes an ultrasonic transducer which is intermittently pulsed a certain number of times by a microprocessor and associated circuitry. The number of return pulses received by the ultrasonic transducer is detected by the microprocessor and is used to determine whether a dry bearing condition exists.

摘要： A method and apparatus are disclosed for generating accurate and precise ultrasonic images of biological materials or animate objects, such as the cornea and lens of the eye, and, in particular, to an ultrasonic scanning apparatus that can position its virtual center of curvature such that its ultrasonic transducer will emit pulses that reflect substantially perpendicularly from a curved specular surface of interest within the eye. This invention can allow real time imaging of a lens as it accommodates and can better enable researchers and ophthalmic surgeons to develop, fit, implant and diagnose performance of accommodative lenses.

摘要： A machine for making a copy on a medium such as paper of a visual image. Particles of toner material are accelerated toward the paper through an apertured screen. Formed on the screen is a pattern of electrostatic charge regions that corresponds to the image so that the arrangement of the toner particles impinging on the paper corresponds to the image. A composite apertured screen composed of two conductive layers separated by an insulative layer and having an insulative layer on one outer surface. Means for establishing oppositely polarized fields across the inner insulative layer and across the outer insulative layer. One of the fields is selectively discharged to control the passage of toner particles through the apertures in the screen.

摘要： A method and apparatus are disclosed for a method for securing a patient for a medical procedure and specifically for an innovative headrest system for securing a patient for an ocular imaging procedure. The approach avoids the need for linkages and sliding rods and such. Instead, it relies on three independently movable face rests (two for the forehead or temples and one for the chin) each with a deformable cushion that is urged into conformity with the patient's head and chin during an adjustment phase of operation. Once a comfortable position and suitable conforming shape is achieved, the positions of the face rests are rigidly fixed and the shape of the cushions are rendered rigid and non-deformable, by application of a light vacuum, for the procedural or imaging phase of operation.
