Patents by Inventor Andreas Demosthenous

Andreas Demosthenous has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Apparatus for performing deep brain stimulation with an electric field
    Patent number: 9630019
    Abstract: One embodiment of the invention provides a method and apparatus for performing deep brain stimulation with an electromagnetic field. The includes an electrode assembly having multiple electrodes and a phased array system for driving the electrodes to generate the electromagnetic field. By controlling delays within the phased array system, the generated electromagnetic field can be steered to a desired region of the brain.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 2, 2014
    Date of Patent: April 25, 2017
    Assignee: UCL BUSINESS PLC
    Inventors: Virgilio Valente, Andreas Demosthenous, Richard Bayford
  • Detection of cancer with electrical impedance tomography
    Patent number: 9125583
    Abstract: The use of nanoparticles for imaging a tumor in a mammal using electrical impedance tomography. The nanoparticles comprise a core of metal and/or semiconductor atoms to which are linked ligands that comprise a molecule capable of attaching to a specific tumor biomarker.
