  • Systems and Methods for Introducing and Applying a Bandage Structure Within a Body Lumen or Hollow Body Organ
    Publication number: 20150080659
    Abstract: Systems and methods provide intraluminal delivery of a bandage structure within a body lumen or hollow body organ, e.g., for treating an injured gastrointestinal tract or an esophageal hemorrhage in a non-invasive way using endoscopic visualization. The systems and methods can be sized and configured to apply a chitosan bandage structure within a body lumen or hollow body organ, to take advantage of the mucoadhesive, antimicrobial, hemostatic, and potential accelerated wound healing properties of the chitosan material.
    Type: Application

  • Distance measurement device and method of use thereof
    Publication number: 20100188649
    Abstract: Systems and methods of utilizing a frequency modulation technique to determine an unknown distance between at least one source and at least one detector in an light scattering medium without knowing the optical properties of the medium are described. Modulated light is emitted from a light source to an optical scattering and absorbing medium and at least a portion of the modulated light is detected with a detector. A calibration factor is determined and then an unknown distance between at least one source and at least one detector can be determined, thereby providing a distance measurement.
