  • Publication number: 20220372277
    Abstract: A preform is made by mixing cyclic olefin copolymer (COC) and light shielding pigment(s) with PET. The preform is stretch-blow moulded to produce a bottle which may be white and opaque. Light may be restricted from entering the bottle to thereby restrict degradation of the bottle contents from certain wavelengths of visible light.

  • Patent number: 11471702
    Abstract: A tool for radiation therapy simulation or planning is disclosed which aids in avoiding collisions during treatment. Configurations of components including at least a radiation delivery device (30) and a patient (32) are generated. Each configuration defines positions of the components in a common coordinate system. For each configuration, proximities of pairs of components of the configuration are computed using ray tracing between three-dimensional surface models (30m, 32m, 36m, 38m) representing the components of the pair. A collision is identified as any pair of components having a computed proximity that is less than a margin for the pair of components. Each identified collision is displayed on a display (12), e.g. as a rendering. The simulations or planning may be used to verify deliverability of arc, 4Pi, or static therapy, to determine safety margins for collisions, to calculate and display realizable trajectories, and so forth.

  • Patent number: 11474019
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for determining a concentration of aerosol particles in a carrier gas. The method comprises providing an aerosol having aerosol particles in a carrier gas comprising at least one condensable component; introducing at least part of the aerosol into a chamber of a pressure-rated vessel, wherein the chamber is delimited by at least one wall adjoining the chamber and set to a temperature which is above a saturation temperature of the at least one condensable component; subsequently removing part of the aerosol from the chamber, as a result of which a decrease in pressure in the chamber occurs, as a result of which the at least one condensable component condenses at least partly on the aerosol particles; and determining a concentration of aerosol particles in the carrier gas during removal of the part of the aerosol from the chamber.
