Abstract: A nasal spray solution for use as a nasal spray and methods of using the solution are disclosed. The nasal spray solution moisturizes nasal passages and alleviates nasal dryness. The solution includes a hypotonic saline solution, wherein the saline solution is hypotonic with respect to cells of the nasal mucosa of the nasal passages, a buffering agent, a lubricating agent, and an anti-microbial agent.

Abstract: An insertable enhancer for improving the clarity and resolution of magnetic resonance images, which is constructed from plasticized polyvinyl chloride. The enhancer is adapted for placement into orifices or canals of the body, such as the ear canal, nasal passages, G.I tract or other cavities.

Abstract: The present invention is a face mask for use with registration of a patient's anatomy through medical imaging for image-guided surgical procedures. The mask includes a nasal bridge mount, medial orbital mounts and at least one side member which extends from the sides of the mask toward the patient's ears when in use. In a preferred embodiment, the face mask includes two side members which extend along the patient's head and behind the ears, similar to a pair of eyeglasses. The mask may also include a strap or other means for maintaining the mask upon the patient's head. The mask may be used to retain and position fiducial markers or attachment of medical or surgical instruments, such as tracking devices, for use during image-guided surgical procedures.

Abstract: An enhancer for improving the clarity and resolution of magnetic resonance images of anatomical regions having limited or excess fat content, which consists of layer of plasticized polyvinyl chloride having a thickness of 0.5 cm to 4 cm. In use, said layer may take a variety of forms so long as the layer is placed in between the body of the patient being examined and the receiving coils of the magnetic resonance imaging system.
