  • System and method for magnetic resonance imaging one or more subjects
    Patent number: 10295623
    Abstract: An MRI system for imaging one or more subjects is provided. The MRI system includes a magnet assembly and an MRI controller. The magnet assembly includes an RF coil for transmitting a first set of RF pulses into the one or more subjects at an initial Larmor frequency. The MRI controller is configured to electronically communicate with the RF coil and to adjust a resonant frequency of the RF coil such that the RF coil transmits a second set of RF pulses into the one or more subjects at one or more subsequent Larmor frequencies that are different from the initial Larmor frequency.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 28, 2016
    Date of Patent: May 21, 2019
    Assignee: GENERAL ELECTRIC COMPANY
    Inventors: Victor Taracila, Fraser Robb, Eddy Boskamp, Daniel Chirayath, Shuying Huang, Madhwesha Rao, James Wild

  • Spill-preventive pet training apparatus and method
    Patent number: 9839195
    Abstract: A spill-preventive pet-training apparatus and method for use in containing the lateral flow of liquid, such as urine, being applied to an absorbent pad at a volume and rate exceeding the absorption rate of the pad, by containing much of the liquid within an inner flexible ridge, and by slowing and containing any liquid that overtops the inner flexible ridge within an outer flexible ridge.
