Patent number: 10671701Abstract: Disclosed and described systems, methods, and apparatus provide diagnostic display and analysis of patient data. An example radiology desktop system includes a workload manager that organizes and displays one or more worklists. The example workload manager retrieves and displays, based on receiving a selection of an active worklist, one or more exams associated with the active worklist. The example system includes a diagnostic hub triggered based on selection of an exam. The example diagnostic hub generates an exam preview panel provides a summary of the selected exam. The example diagnostic hub facilitates comparison, based on selection of a comparison exam via the user interface from a patient library, between the selected exam and the comparison exam via the diagnostic hub. The example diagnostic hub updates a worklist entry for the selected exam based on an analysis resulting from the comparison between the selected exam and the comparison exam.Type: GrantFiled: November 26, 2014Date of Patent: June 2, 2020Assignee: General Electric CompanyInventors: Kristen Alane McConnell, Gretchen Marie Mendoza, Anna Louise Von Reden, Bryon Pigg, Francesco DeSensi, Gregory Hopkins, Michael Butler, Xiaoyu Chen Kaess, Rasu Shrestha

Patent number: 8792191Abstract: A two-axis, optical mount provides two flexural elements monolithically and homogeneously formed of a single material with, and interconnecting, three rigid segments. Between each pair of rigid segments, beginning with the first and second, a set of extensions is formed to have a cross section that permits simple, easy, independent adjustment therebetween. Likewise, a flexural element exists between the second and third rigid elements. Meanwhile, the rigid elements have section moduli sufficiently great as to be orders of magnitude larger than the flexural stiffness or section modulus of the flexural elements, thus providing flexures that operate in the elastic mode and introduce no joint type accuracy errors in adjustment.Type: GrantFiled: May 10, 2013Date of Patent: July 29, 2014Assignee: Utah State University Research FoundationInventors: Gregory Hopkins, Blake Crowther, Kendall Johnson, Vaughn A. Griffiths

Publication number: 20070100117Abstract: Resin compositions, methods of forming such resin compositions, methods of using such resin compositions and substrates treated with such resin compositions are disclosed. One of such resin compositions contains no formaldehyde and is useful as a binder. Such resin composition comprises the reaction product of: a—melamine, b—at least one aldehyde of formula (1) as defined in the specification, c—a cross linking agent, wherein the cross linking agent is glyoxylic acid, and d—at least one polyol having 2 or more than 2 hydroxyl groups. The resin composition of the present invention can provide performance characteristics to which they are applied.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 15, 2006Publication date: May 3, 2007Inventors: Gregory Hopkins, William Floyd

Patent number: 7168089Abstract: A disclosed gaming machine may securely communicate with devices over a public network such as the Internet. The gaming machine utilizes a combination of symmetric and asymmetric encryption that allows a single gaming machine to securely communicate with a remote server using a public network. The secure communication methods may be used to transfer gaming software and gaming information between two gaming devices, such as between a game server and a gaming machine. For regulatory and tracking purposes, the transfer of gaming software between the two gaming devices may be authorized and monitored by a software authorization agent.Type: GrantFiled: April 3, 2002Date of Patent: January 23, 2007Assignee: IGTInventors: Binh T.
