An autofluorescence light examination system having a plurality of modular parts includes a main body, a light source, and at least two detachable instruments. The main body is configured to deliver light to a target tissue and contains at least one optical element configured so that a user can directly view the target tissue through the main body while the target tissue is illuminated by the light source. The main body is further configured to accept at least two detachable instruments that are configured to deliver light to at least two different target tissues located at at least two different areas of the body and configured such that a user can directly view the target tissue through the main body while the target tissue is illuminated by the light source.

Methods and systems related to detecting disease, such as oral cancer, in a patient, using a viewing scope to investigate a patient's tissues. The systems and methods excite and detect fluorescence from the tissue. The fluorescence can then be evaluated, and the possibility of certain diseases such as cancer can be determined. The devices include an ambient light management system (ALMS, often referred to as a “vestibular device”) that manages background light in the health practitioner's office. This device can be used with scope systems for fluorescence based detection of abnormal tissue.

Septic barriers interposed between a target tissue such as an oral or vaginal cavity, exposed epidermis, or wound or surgical site, and a user and his/her optical interrogation instruments to reduce cross-infection and/or contamination. In certain embodiments, the septic barrier is substantially transparent for viewing purposes and is typically effectively non-fluorescent, particularly when used for investigating autofluorescence or other fluorescence emanating from a target, so as to have little or no effect on the measurements and observations being made. The sepsis barrier can comprises a window through which the user sees the tissue, a frame holding the window, and an attachment structure, such as threads or bayonet attachment, configured to connect the barrier to the instrument. If desired, the system can also have an optional attachment mechanism for permanent or temporary connection of a further instrument to the frame, such as a tissue retractor configured to aid manipulation of the target tissue.
摘要:
Devices, systems and methods providing speculums constructed to be substantially or completely non-fluorescent. The speculums can be, for example, constructed entirely of non-fluorescent material such as very dark (e.g., black, dark charcoal gray, navy blue) plastic. The speculums can also be any given material and coated with a substantially non-fluorescing material such as a low-fluorescent paint or laminate, or otherwise constructed and configured in any desired manner providing the feature(s) discussed herein.

An exterior mirror assembly for a vehicle includes a signal light or security light that provides illumination at a side of the vehicle. The exterior mirror assembly includes a housing with a reflective element, and may include a positioning device for adjusting the position of the reflective element in the housing. The signal light includes a light source and may be adapted to project light from a non-folding portion or support member of the mirror housing.

An interior rearview mirror assembly for a vehicle includes a casing having a human machine interface thereat. The human machine interface includes at least one user actuatable input integrally formed at a portion of the casing during the molding operation that forms the casing. The mirror assembly includes circuitry. The user actuatable input may be actuatable by a user to operate at least one element of the circuitry. The human machine interface may be at least partially at a bezel portion of the casing, or may be at least partially at a rear casing portion of the mirror casing.

An interior rearview mirror assembly includes a human machine interface having at least one user actuatable input accessible at a portion of the mirror casing. The user actuatable input provides user input to at least one element of circuitry that is disposed in the mirror casing, the interior rearview mirror assembly and/or an accessory module. The circuitry is associated with at least one of (i) a moisture sensor, (ii) a blower motor, (iii) a cabin air monitoring device that monitors the air within the cabin of the vehicle, (iv) a cabin air monitoring device that monitors the level of carbon monoxide in the air within the cabin of the vehicle, (v) an air intake, (vi) a remote ignition system, (vii) a humidity sensing device, and (viii) a display device disposed behind a transflective mirror reflector of the interior rearview mirror assembly and visible to the driver when displaying information.

A vehicular interior rearview mirror system includes a housing, a mounting member configured to mount to a vehicle windshield, an electrical actuator, which is supported by the mounting member with the weight of the electrical actuator being transferred to the windshield by way of the mounting member, and a reflective element. The reflective element is mounted to the electrical actuator and has a rearward field of view when mounted to the electrical actuator, which provides adjustment of the rearward field of view of the reflective element.
摘要:
A method and apparatus are provided to process spatial data including seismic data. Given a spatial dataset of n dimensions, a data-driven partitioning of the dataset is effected into topographically contiguous regions using feature specific indices. Then on each region, a set of features is calculated according to a computer process, wherein the features are considered sufficiently descriptive of the region. Thereupon, two or more regions which are topographically contiguous are grouped together and the associated features are assembled in an analytical structure to be input to a classifier.
摘要:
An apparatus and method for analyzing known data, storing the known data in a pattern database (“PDB”) as a template is provided. Additional methods are provided for comparing new data against the templates in the PDB. The data is stored in such a way as to facilitate the visual recognition of desired patterns or indicia indicating the presence of a desired or undesired feature within the new data. The apparatus and method is applicable to a variety of applications where large amounts of information are generated, and/or if the data exhibits fractal or chaotic attributes.
