  • Publication number: 20130018596
    Abstract: Method and device for determining target brain segments in human or animal brains An embodiment of the invention relates to a method for determining at least one target brain segment of a human or animal brain for stimulation or manipulation of a specific brain function, said method comprising the steps of: (a) receiving first data of a reference brain, said first data defining a reference network consisting of functionally correlated brain segments that perform said specific brain function, (b) identifying the corresponding network in the human or animal brain, (c) receiving second data of said reference brain, said second data comprising a description of at least one location in the reference network, said location defining a target brain segment for stimulation or manipulation of said specific brain function in the reference brain, and (d) identifying at least one corresponding location in the corresponding network of the human or animal brain based on said description, said at least one corresponding l

  • Publication number: 20120163689
    Abstract: An embodiment of the present invention relates to a method for visualizing at least one human or animal brain segment in order to aid a stimulation or manipulation of the brain, said method comprising the steps of: (a) predicting the localization of where a stimulation or manipulation effect is or would be, if and when initiated, and determining at least one target brain segment which is or would be stimulated or manipulated; (b) evaluating whether at least one brain segment is functionally correlated to said at least one target brain segment; (c) providing image data which visualize the at least one target brain segment and/or at least one of the correlated brain segments as evaluated in step (b); and (d) displaying the image data.

  • Publication number: 20060124353
    Abstract: A system for measuring desired drilling parameters of a pipe string during an oil and gas well drilling operation is provided that includes a top drive assembly; a pipe running tool engageable with the pipe string and coupled to the top drive assembly to transmit translational and rotational forces from the top drive assembly to the pipe string; and one or more measurement devices mounted to the pipe running tool for measuring the desired drilling parameters of the pipe string during the oil and gas well drilling operation.
