Abstract: A system for aurally delivering light and sound is provided having a computer in communication with a light module and a speaker, software executing on said computer for driving the speaker to produce sound, and software executing on said computer for driving the light module to produce light at a frequency of 2 Hz to 45 Hz.

Abstract: An apparatus and method utilizes photonics, particularly lasers, and biometric feedback for physiological and neurological stimulation. While many areas of the body are candidates, such laser stimulation is particularly directed to the outer ear. Lasers positioned over the ear stimulate targets on the outer ear for pain and stress management and regulation of the autonomic nervous system to affect symptoms and clinical conditions. Laser positioning, wavelength, aiming, focus, power, power density, timing, and sequencing are managed and modified dynamically in real time to effect a personalized and effective treatment protocol.

Abstract: A chronic subdermal silver-silver/chloride (Ag—Ag/Cl) electrode for the recording of biopotentials is disclosed. The electrode is comprised of an Ag—Ag/Cl distal end that is placed subdermally by various methods. The recording electrode is made of solid, multi-stranded or a ball of pure silver and the whole length of the electrode is insulated except for the distal end which is used for voltage recordation. The electrode can be placed subdermally by an introducer apparatus such as hypodermic or sewing needle, a split-cannula, a staple, or a suture. Once placed, the introducer apparatus can be removed leaving the recording wire/element in place. The recording electrode can be placed at any location on the body to record the local biopotential (EEG, EOG, EMG, EKG, etc). It can be left in place for hours, days, or weeks, as it will record without any further adjustment.

Abstract: In a system and method for generating a 3-dimensional representation of a portion of an organism, collecting training data, wherein the training data includes a first set of training data and a second set of training data. At least one statistical model having a set of parameters is built using the training data. The at least one statistical model is compared to a 2-dimensional image of the portion of the organism. At least one parameter of the set of parameters of the statistical model is modified based on the comparison of the at least one statistical model to the 2-dimensional image of the portion of the organism. The modified set of parameters representing the portion of the organism is passed through the statistical model.

Abstract: Provided are homeopathic compositions and methods for the preparation and use of such homeopathic compositions. Therapeutic methods comprise the administration of combinations of homeopathic compositions to provide the effective treatment of cancer, such as prostate cancers. Homeopathic compositions may be prepared by extracting from a patient a tissue sample comprising a tumor cell and a reactive tissue cell that is located in proximity to the tumor cell. Such a tissue sample is suspended in a liquid carrier solution and succussed serially in a liquid carrier solution to provide the homeopathic composition having a homeopathic potency. Homeopathic methods comprise the administration of a homeopathic composition optionally in combination with a second homeopathic composition. Exemplary second homeopathic compositions include Thuja occidentalis, Conium maculaturm, and Sabal serulata.

Abstract: A signal recording system and a method for recording such signals is provided. In particular, a device is operable to be removably attached to a subject and to obtain signals (e.g., electroencephalogram (“EEG”) signals) from the subject. The device includes an amplifier and an electrode or a sensor. For example, the amplifier cna provide a radion frequency attenuation to the subject, and the amplifier can be mounted on the electrode, provided within the electrode, provided in the vicinity of the electrode, etc.

Abstract: This invention relates to a polymer mixture which comprises an aromatic polycarbonate (A); a styrene (or styrene derivative and/or (meth)acrylate) containing polymer or copolymer and/or a styrene (or styrene derivative and/or (meth)acrylate) containing graft polymer (B); phosphorous compound(s) which are phosphate or phosphonate or oligomeric or poly-phosphate based flame-retardant(s) (C); specific inorganic additive(s) (D); and further flame retardant(s) or anti-drip agent(s) (E): and optionally, other additives.

Abstract: A casting or splinting material in powder form is a mixture of particles of (a) a water-soluble cross-linkable polymer containing carboxylic acid groups, such as polyacrylic acid and (b) zinc oxide and/or one or more zinc salts, this latter material being at least partly coated to reduce its surface reactivity with an organic acid e.g. an aliphatic fatty acid containing from 6 to 20 carbon atoms per molecule. Such material, that can for example be provided as a loading on a Leno gauze, can be made up as a slurry in a volatile organic liquid for coating purposes.
