    摘要: A luminal occlusion device comprises a tension member, an elongate shaft, and a flat film having an axial receptacle which is received over a distal portion of the tension member. The flat film has proximal and distal ends which are attached to the distal ends of the tension member and the elongate shaft, respectively. Thus, distal advancement of the tension member relative to the shaft will cause the flat film to assume a low profile configuration, while proximal retraction of the tension member relative to the elongate shaft will cause the flat film to assume a foreshortened, compacted configuration. The film usually includes one or more radioopaque markers which help shape the compacted film.

    摘要: An endoscope is communicatively coupled to electronics that receive images of tissue from the endoscope and determine a correlation between the received images and images of normal and abnormal tissues in a database. Based on the determined correlation, an operator of the endoscope is notified of the correlation and the electronics can cause the endoscope to act accordingly (e.g., biopsy abnormal tissue).

    摘要: A stent having an elongated tubular configuration consisting of at least one anchor section to inhibit migration. Said anchor section is fabricated by an expandable mesh of woven metallic or polymeric elements. The anchor is configured to minimize contact abrasion and irritation to the entrance of the lumen being stented, as well as to enervated tissue surrounding that entrance, as well as to better absorb forces and increase retention as the lumen is stretched.

    摘要: Occluding structures may be created within a body lumen by advancing a length of material distally through the body lumen. By drawing a distal location on the advanced length of material in a proximal direction, the material may be compacted into a structure which at least partially occludes the lumen. The occluding structure may be used to remove kidney stones from the ureter in conjunction with lithotripsy and irrigation.
