Abstract: A system and methods are provided and thrombi treatments in which hyperthermia is induced in an initial phase and cavitation and/or drug release are induced in a subsequent phase in a region of interest in a human or animal body. The system includes an energy transmitter having a variable intensity and/or a variable frequency; and a control unit arranged to control the energy transmitter to operate in at least two different modes. In one embodiment, the first mode is a mode of operation having a mechanical index below a threshold level for cavitation; and the second mode is a mode of operation having a mechanical index above a threshold level for cavitation. In another embodiment, the first mode induces hyperthermia below a temperature threshold for releasing an encapsulated agent and the second mode induces hyperthermia above the temperature threshold. The initial hyperthermia treatment enhances the effect of subsequent treatments.

Abstract: A system and method are provided for treatment of cancer, comprising: a focusable energy source for targeting a region of interest in a human or animal body to achieve hyperthermia in the region of interest; and a magnetic resonance imaging unit arranged to monitor at least one physical parameter related to oxygenation level spatially in and around the region of interest. The physical parameters may be one or more of partial oxygen pressure (pO2), temperature, carbon dioxide level (CO2) and acidity (pH).

Abstract: A wind turbine including a torque distribution device for distributing torque between two different shafts. Also a system for detecting the presence of snow/ice on a wind turbine using ultrasound sensors and a system for de-icing wind turbines in which when the removal of snow/ice is detected, the heaters are switched off. Also a wind turbine with a lightning sensor and a processing unit which can shut down sub-systems or the whole system in response to data from the lightning sensor. Also a wind turbine with an automated lubrication refill system for replenishing the lubricant in one or more components of the turbine. Also a wind farm comprising a plurality of wind turbines in which at least one wind turbine is communicatively coupled to at least one other wind turbine.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for non-invasive patient treatment using ultrasound are disclosed. One method comprises administering to a patient a therapeutic agent, transmitting ultrasound and directing the ultrasonic energy at a region of interest of a patient, monitoring cavitation in and around the region of interest in real time, and controlling the ultrasonic transmitting device, based on the monitored cavitation, so that the ultrasonic energy is focused at the region of interest. Another method comprises determining the position of a region of interest in terms of spatial coordinates, storing or calculating an expected effect of therapeutic ultrasound on the region of interest, focusing ultrasound energy on the region of interest based on the spatial coordinates, measuring the effect of the ultrasound energy on the region of interest, comparing the measured effect with the stored or calculated effect, and providing an output of the comparison.

Abstract: The invention relates to an acoustic probe for treating cancerous tissue, for introduction into a natural or surgically created cavity in the patient, in close proximity to a tissue area which includes cancerous cells. The probe includes an acoustic transmitter arranged for transmitting an acoustic signal having characteristics which causes damage of said cancerous cells and means for administering chemotherapeutic substances. The invention further relates to a corresponding method and a system for treating cancerous tissue. The use of the invention may be combined with the use of encapsulated cytostatica within micelles or therapeutic molecules.

Abstract: An integrated advertising or messaging system that may target various socio-economic groups, as a function of time, weekday, traffic conditions and weather is provided. The system may offer real time interactions with receivers, to provide additional information or the ordering of goods or services. The concept yields optimising and cost effective solutions to the communication between transmitter (advertiser) and receiver (consumer).
