Abstract: A computer system in a money transfer transaction. A request is received from a sender on a send computer to send a money transfer having a send amount. The sender is prompted on the send computer to select one or more parameters associated with the money transfer, the one or more parameters comprising money transfer receiver information including a receiver location. Money transfer fees associated with the money transfer are analyzed for a plurality of receive locations proximate the receiver location based on the selected one or more parameters. A receive location offering a lowest money transfer fee is selected from the plurality of receive locations. The send amount and fee for the selected receive location are collected from the sender. Information related to the money transfer is then stored, including the selected one or more parameters and the receive location, in a money transfer server.

Abstract: Image tracking systems, and corresponding methods, are described. In some embodiments, conventional imaging components are placed on a platform having wheels, thereby providing a mechanism for imaging a moving subject. In other embodiments, conventional imaging components are situated on non-parallel rails, and moved along those rails, thereby providing a mechanism for imaging an anatomical region of a subject as that region moves in two dimensions. For yet other embodiments, image recognition and tracking approaches are provided to track the movement of a non-stationary anatomical region. The tracking of the non-stationary anatomical region permits imaging of a moving anatomy. For some embodiments, the anatomy moves within its normal range of motion.

Abstract: A prosthetic knee system includes a tibial tray, a non-rotating tibial insert, and a rotating tibial insert. The non-rotating tibial insert and the rotating tibial insert are selectively couplable to the tibial tray such that a fixed or a mobile orthopaedic prosthesis may be configured. In some embodiments, the tibial tray may be a fixed or mobile tibial tray. Additionally, in some embodiments, the prosthetic knee system may include a femoral component.

Abstract: A flexion gap instrument is configured to mate with a ligament tensioning tool, such as known distraction devices and pivoting knee balancers. The instrument facilitates making A/P resections in the femur for placement of a femoral prosthesis component to maintain an optimum symmetric flexion gap, which will avoid the risk of medial or lateral laxity in flexion, instability of articulating component dislocation. The instrument includes a base that is configured to sit within the ligament tensioning device, and a vertically extending upstanding portion that is configured to mate with a cutting block or other knee arthroplasty instrument that must be positioned relative to the distal end of the femur. The upstanding portion includes a measurement plate that bears a scale indicating a flexion gap distance.

Abstract: A decorative shutter assembly includes a plurality of slats arranged in a row presenting a decorative surface with side flanges projecting rearwardly. At least one cross member overlays each of the slats and presents a decorative cross surface with side cross flanges projecting rearwardly. Each cross slat includes at least one mating member affixed behind the cross slat decorative surface having a mating wall affixed to each of the decorative surfaces for affixing the plurality batten slats to the cross slat. Alternatively, a plurality of primary slats are arranged to present a decorative surface having side flanges projecting rearwardly and at least one end piece is attached to the primary slats the ends of the primary slats are received in the end piece for adjoining and aligning said primary slats, said end piece including a cross member traversing said the primary and having slats and slat ends integrated into the end piece, each of said slats and slat ends aligning with one of the primary slats.

Abstract: A knee prosthesis which more accurately reproduces the rollback of natural knee movement and, thus, reduces wear on the tibial component. The knee prosthesis includes a femoral component with two cams, the first located between the posterior condylar sections and the second located towards the anterior end of the condylar sections with a slot surface therebetween. The tibial component includes a spine which engages each cam as it rotates along the femoral component and the slot surface during flexion and extension.

Abstract: An prosthesis for allowing natural ball and socket type movement, as in a hip or shoulder. A femoral component having a ball at one extremity is engaged with an acetabular component having a hemispherical cup to receive the ball. A ligamentous material extends from a port in the hemispherical cup to a port in the ball to apply a resistive force to resist any dislocating force, the resistive force varying in proportion to the movement of the femoral component from a natural and relaxed position in relation to the acetabular component.

Abstract: A displacement sensor comprises a measuring head which measures displacement by variation in frequency of an oscillator due to movement of a core in a coil. The signal from the oscillator is used to gate a high frequency crystal clock into a counter. The count is representative of the change in frequency of the oscillator and thus the displacement to be measured. The count is compared by a microprocessor with a look-up table stored in the memory during initial calibration. The operating and processing electronics connected to the sensor head are mounted in a connector which can be directly coupled to connectors of other sensors to form a bus connecting multiple sensors to a data logger or computer.
