  • DEFORMABLE IMAGING PHANTOM FOR 4D MOTION TRACKING WITH SCINTILLATOR RADIATION DETECTOR
    Publication number: 20230204702
    Abstract: A deformable phantom, according to the present invention, has a housing made of a Mill invisible material enclosing a sealed reservoir filled with a MM signal producing material, a piston slidably mounted within a sleeve and extending into the sealed reservoir, wherein the sleeve is slidably mounted to the housing and extends into the sealed reservoir, a deformable structure within the sealed reservoir, and one or more point dosimeters located on or within the deformable structure. The piston and sleeve move opposite to one another to conserve a constant fluid volume within the sealed reservoir as the piston moves in and out of the sealed reservoir to cause motion and/or deformation of the deformable structure.

  • Piezoelectric motor assembly
    Patent number: 10090781
    Abstract: A piezoelectric motor assembly for producing rotary motion, according to the present invention, has a motor frame and a circular body rotatably mounted on the motor frame having a diameter, a thickness, and a circumferential outer surface. At least two piezoelectric motors are mounted on the motor frame in tangential engagement with the outer surface of the circular body. The at least two piezoelectric motors are biased against the outer surface, resulting in an unbalanced net force on the circular body.
