摘要： A method for locally creating effectively homogeneous or “clean” magnetic field gradients (of high uniformity) for imaging (with NMR, MRI, or spectroscopic MRI) both in in-situ and ex-situ systems with high degrees of inhomogeneous field strength. The method of imaging comprises: a) providing a functional approximation of an inhomogeneous static magnetic field strength B0 (r) at a spatial position r; b) providing a temporal functional approximation of Gshim(t) with i basis functions and j variables for each basis function, resulting in vij variables; c) providing a measured value Ω, which is an temporally accumulated dephasing due to the inhomogeneities of B0 (r); and d) minimizing a difference in the local dephasing angle (I) by varying the vij variables to form a set of minimized vij variables. The method requires calibration of the static fields prior to minimization, but may thereafter he implemented without such calibration, may he used in open or closed systems, and potentially portable systems.

摘要： A package is disclosed that enables packaging of associated items in a single pack. Typical of the items to be packaged are pharmaceutical drugs and associated drug delivery apparatus. The package (1) includes a main container or first compartment (10) adapted to contain a first one of the items e.g. drug delivery apparatus and a support or second compartment (11) adapted to releasably hold a subsidiary container to contain the second of the items e.g. vial or similar container. The subsidiary container may take the form of a sleeve or box retained with the second compartment.

摘要： A container that selectively dispenses items contained therein. The container includes a body that includes two opposing openings and a removable dispensing tray that may be coupled with the body with a snap-in-coupling. The tray includes two opposing openings also. When the body is coupled to the tray, the body and tray may rotate relative to one another such that the openings may be aligned to an open position so that items may move from the body to the tray. The openings may be misaligned to a closed position so that items are prevented from moving from the body to the tray. The container and tray combination are especially suitable for a disposable bird feeder.
