  • Patent number: 11071506
    Abstract: A high-resolution x-ray imaging system encodes spatial information into x-ray energy by an encoding filter which changes the x-ray energy sensitivity of each detector at different portions of the detector. Acquiring successive images at different energies allows the fluence at different portions of a single detector to be isolated providing effective sub detector resolution.

  • Patent number: 11075835
    Abstract: A network switch holds a routing table and a network topology table so that when a link failure is detected at the network switch, the network switch may independently reroute a packet intended for that failed link using the network topology table. This processing can be performed in the data plane at a speed that can eliminate dropped packets. Intercommunication with a central controller is not required and intercommunication with other network switches may be accomplished through data plane communication by embedding the link failure information in the affected packet.

The TDC includes first and second sharing switch devices (SSD) respectively connected to the first and second TTL. The first and second SSD are connected to each other. The first TDS has a first voltage level during a first period, and the second TDS has a second voltage level different than the first voltage level during the first period. The TDC is configured to turn on the first and second SSD during a second period after the first period such that the first and second TDSs have a voltage level between the first voltage level and the second voltage level.

  • Patent number: 11071748
    Abstract: When using a pharmaceutical composition for preventing or treating malignant hyperthermia, containing NAADP antagonists, of the present invention, malignant hyperthermia can be effectively prevented or treated through the inhibition of an oxygen consumption rate abnormal increase, which is associated with a ryanodine receptor (RYR) of skeletal muscles. In addition, the present invention can be used even after the onset of malignant hyperthermia and can inhibit an oxygen consumption rate abnormal increase even at concentrations lower than those of conventional agents for treating malignant hyperthermia, thereby enabling conventional agents for treating malignant hyperthermia to be replaced, and can be stably used, thereby being effectively usable in relevant industries.
