Patent number: 10722735Abstract: A system includes a patient support and an outer gantry on which an accelerator is mounted to enable the accelerator to move through a range of positions around a patient on the patient support. The accelerator is configured to produce a proton or ion beam having an energy level sufficient to reach a target in the patient. An inner gantry includes an aperture for directing the proton or ion beam towards the target.Type: GrantFiled: January 18, 2019Date of Patent: July 28, 2020Assignee: Mevion Medical Systems, Inc.Inventors: Kenneth P. Gall, Stanley J. Rosenthal, Gordon D. Row, Michael J. Ahearn

Publication number: 20190262542Abstract: Various embodiments disclosed herein relate to needle-based injectors that incorporate a power assembly comprising a stored energy source and a rate control assembly. The power assembly may be further configured to allow the injection to be performed with more force than a user may be capable of delivering, while also allowing the user to maintain control of the injection process after the stored energy source has been released and the injection has begun, such the user may increase or decrease the rate of injection, or stop the injection, during the injection process. In various embodiments, the power assembly may comprise spring- or gas-based stored energy sources, and/or may comprise friction- or tension-based rate control assemblies. Described herein are also methods for injecting an agent using embodiments of the devices described here.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 28, 2019Publication date: August 29, 2019Applicant: Genentech, Inc.Inventors: Gordon D. ROW, Andrew I. POUTIATINE, Neal SCHLATTER, Adrian BISCHOFF
