  • Patent number: 4315216
    Abstract: Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) apparatus have beenproposed for examining slices or volumes of bodies, perhaps for medical examination of patients. Magnetic fields are used to induce resonance in a selected region of a body and a resonance signal is detected during a pulse of a gradient field which causes phase dispersion across the region.It is now proposed that more efficient operation of the apparatus is possible if the gradient pulse is a non-square pulse, perhaps a distorted sinusoid, and the resonance signal is sampled during that pulse at intervals such that .intg. Hdt is substantially equal between adjacent samples.

  • Patent number: 4314523
    Abstract: A centrifuge rotor is described which facilitates the preparation of cell dispersions on microscope slides. The rotor is bowl-like in configuration and defines plural peripheral regions adapted to receive the slides and a removable sample chamber associated with each slide. Each chamber has an outlet adpated to contact its slide. A sample, containing blood cells, for example, may be placed in a chamber and the cells centrifugally sedimented against the slide associated therewith. Excess or unwanted fluid is removed from the chamber by applying a vacuum through a vacuum line and hollow drive shaft. Leaf springs maintain each chamber in position and the vacuum line in fluid contact with the chamber. The vacuum line conecting each chamber cooperates with its leaf spring such that if a chamber is missing, the leaf spring closes the vacuum line.
