Abstract: A transport and delivery system which may be used for injectable materials such as radioactive injectables. The system includes a base configured to hold a material transport device containing the injectable material, and a cover including a material delivery system and a material access device. The cover is configured to be mated over the base to result in alignment of the material access device with the material transport device to allow the material delivery system to deliver the injectable materials from within the material transport device to a patient. The cover may include a handle graspable within an adult hand to facilitate grasping/handling of the system. A priming cap may be provided to facilitate priming of the material delivery system and material access device to be substantially airless.

Abstract: An enclosable and stackable container comprising a tray and lid is provided with structural elements to permit rapid covering and uncovering of the tray, efficient stacking of containers, and safe transportation. At least one catching mechanism may be engaged quickly to securely cover the tray and its food contents and disengaged quickly to uncover the tray and its food contents, improving food hygiene practices. Foldable flange flaps enhance stacking strength to permit safe transportation of stacked containers and their food contents.

Abstract: An optical interference apparatus for carrying out Fourier domain optical coherence tomography. Multiple beams are provided and respective interferograms are recorded simultaneously for a plurality of different focal depths within a substance to be examined. Combined images are derived from the interferograms for a plurality of different focal depths, whereby a single image may be constructed with an increased depth of field. The axial spacing of the foci is calculated to take into account the Rayleigh range of the focal waist in the substance to be examined.

Abstract: An optical interference apparatus for carrying out Fourier domain optical coherence tomography including means to provide multiple beams whereby interferograms are recorded simultaneously for a plurality of different focal depths within a substance to be examined, each interferogram being provided by one of the multiple beams. Means are provided for combining images derived from said interferograms for a plurality of different focal depths, whereby a single image may be constructed with an increased depth of field. The axial spacing of the foci is calculated to take into account the Rayleigh range of the focal waist in the substance to be examined.
