  • Patent number: 6904162
    Abstract: A method and system for recording and verifying three-dimensional dose distributions a film phantom uses a phantom which includes a cavity for receiving film sheets. A three-dimensional radiation dose described by a stereotactic radiosurgery plan can be delivered to the phantom while the cavity is loaded with film. The film can be developed to provide multiple dose images. Thereafter, based on the multiple dose images, a measured three-dimensional dose distribution map is obtained. The phantom may have a pattern of translucent areas which expose fiducial marks on the film. The fiducial marks may be used to determine a position and orientation of the film relative to the phantom.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 6523792
    Abstract: A holder (1)for a generally cylindrical bottle (3), such as a 8 oz. baby bottle, water bottle or sports bottle, having two openings, one that can be secured closed (8) with hook and eye fastening tape (9 and 10) while the other remains open (2) allowing for the neck of the bottle to protrude thereby providing access for consumption of beverage in said bottle. The holder (1) is comprised of insulating material and will keep the beverage in said bottle (3) at a desired temperature. When the bottle (3) is inserted into the holder (1) the neck of the bottle that protrudes through the top aperture (2) completes the animal/creature's face by representing it's nose or muzzle.
