  • Patent number: 11930581
    Abstract: A modular laser-produced plasma X-ray system includes a liquid metal flow system enclosed within a low-pressure chamber, the flow system including a liquid metal, wherein in at least one location on the liquid metal forms a metal target directly illuminated by laser pulses, a circulation pump within the liquid metal flow system for circulating the liquid metal, a laser pulse emitter configured to transmit laser pulses into the chamber via a laser window, focusing optics, located between the emitter and the metal target, the focusing optics directing the laser pulses to strike the metal target at a target location to form X-ray pulses, and an X-ray window positioned within the chamber to enable the X-ray pulses to exit the chamber.

  • Patent number: 11285228
    Abstract: An instrument produces clean and/or sterile products or compounds. The instrument includes a housing defining a clean interior. The housing has an inlet and a first HEPA filter for filtering an inflow through the inlet to create filtered air. A plurality of UV-C lights irradiate the interior. A 3D printer is in the interior to produce clean products. Preferably, the interior is CGMP compliant. The instrument may also have micro spray nozzles for spraying a sterilizing agent within the interior. A pressure pump can create a pressure differential, positive or negative, within the housing. Typically, the housing has an outlet with a second HEPA filter for filtering an outflow through the outlet to create environmentally safe air. An air circulator can create a laminar air flow through the housing.

  • Publication number: 20180290386
    Abstract: A method includes steps for creating safe and accurate pharmaceutical products with a 3D printer. A 3D printer is set up and a set of printer instructions are created, the instructions being designed to print a desired final product having at least one desired attribute. A product is printed based on the instructions. At least one attribute of the product is measured and compared with the desired attributes of the desired final product. If there is a difference between the product attributes and desired attributes, changes are made to the instruction set and a new product is printed. When there is a match between product attributes and desired attributes, a safe and accurate medical product has been created.
