Abstract: A subcutaneous port includes an elongated port corpus having a proximal end defining a septum receiving opening angled in relation to a longitudinal axis of said port corpus, a substantially cylindrical body, and a substantially frustoconical conus having an outlet opening provided at a distal end thereof. The cylindrical body defines a chamber along at least a portion of a length thereof and the cylindrical body and frustoconical conus collectively define a passage to permit passage of fluid between the chamber and the outlet opening. A septum is retained in the septum receiving opening by a septum retainer. A catheter is connected to the port corpus passage.
Abstract: A method for carrying out quantitative iris colorimetry on an eye is disclosed comprising the steps of detecting the iris coloration by means for converting it into an electronic signal, quantitatively comparing said electronic signal to a provided electronic standard, and computing a quantitative value representative of the iris coloration. The preferred means for converting it into a signal is a is a video camera and the preferred storage means is a computer memory, either in a magnetic or optical disk.
