Patents by Inventor Bruce Herbert Cornish

Bruce Herbert Cornish 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).

  • Impedance measurement process
    Patent number: 10070800
    Abstract: A method for use in performing impedance measurements on a subject. The method includes, in a processing system, determining at least one first impedance value, measured at a site using a first electrode configuration, determining at least one second impedance value, measured at the site using a second electrode configuration, and determining the presence, absence or degree of an anomaly using the first and second impedance values.
    Type: Grant

    Date of Patent: September 11, 2018
    Assignee: IMPEDIMED LIMITED
    Inventors: Bruce Herbert Cornish, Brian John Thomas, Jye Geoffrey Smith

  • Method and device for measuring tissue oedema
    Patent number: 8233974
    Abstract: The present invention provides a method of assessing tissue oedema, in particular lymphoedema, by measuring bioelectrical impedance at a single frequency. Comparison of a single frequency bioelectrical impedance measurement taken at an anatomical region affected by tissue oedema to that taken at an anatomical region unaffected by tissue oedema is a reliable indicator of the presence or possible presence of lymphoedema. The present invention further provides an apparatus for determining the presence of tissue oedema.
