  • Patent number: 11896392
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for determine the fat composition in an organ of interest using a non-invasive health measurement system. The non-invasive health measurement system may include an open magnet NMR apparatus. The NMR apparatus may measure NMR signals in a sensitive volume of a patient. The sensitive volume may coincide with an organ of interest, such as a liver. Systems and methods disclosed herein may provide for separation of the water contribution and the fat contribution to the measured NMR signal. Diffusion based separation, T2 based separation, and T1 based separation may each serve as different methods for separating the water and fat contributions to the signal. Separating the water and fat contributions to the single may allow for computation of a proton density fat fraction which may reflect the fat composition of the organ of interest.

  • Patent number: 11778390
    Abstract: The disclosure describes devices and methods for starting up a microphone assembly. The device may be implemented on an integrated circuit that includes a direct current (DC) bias circuit. The DC bias circuit may be coupled to a transducer and configured to supply a DC bias signal to the transducer. The DC bias circuit includes a multi-stage charge pump and a low pass filter (LPF) circuit. The LPF circuit includes an adjustable resistance and a capacitor. A resistance of the adjustable resistance may be reduced to reduce the settling time of the LPF while starting (e.g., turning on) the microphone assembly.

  • Publication number: 20230148948
    Abstract: An apparatus for non-invasive evaluations and in-vivo diagnostics includes an open magnet, an RF antenna, and an NMR analytics logical circuit communicatively coupled to the RF antenna, wherein the open magnet is shaped to generate a static magnetic field that extends unilaterally into an object or internal organ of a subject when the open magnet is positioned against or in proximity to the object or subject, the static and RF magnetic fields shaped to generate a sensitive volume within a target region. The RF antenna or antenna array is configured to transmit RF pulses into the target region of the object or internal organ and receive sets of NMR signals generated by hydrogen or other elements, and the NMR analytics logical circuit is configured to obtain and analyze sets of NMR signals.

  • Publication number: 20220129852
    Abstract: Embodiments may be associated with a secure, distributed transaction ledger. The system may include a collaboration scenario template data store that contains electronic records providing entity identifiers and a set of task templates. A computer processor of a cross-entity process collaboration platform, coupled to the collaboration scenario template data store, may access information in the collaboration scenario template data store. The cross-entity process collaboration platform may then automatically create a collaboration scenario based on the entity identifiers and the set of task templates. The collaboration scenario may then be deployed by the cross-entity process collaboration platform to the secure, distributed transaction ledger.

  • Publication number: 20180250591
    Abstract: Methods of enabling multiplatform interaction between interactive content applications are contemplated. A message is sent from a first user device to a server, where the message includes an action sequence associated with the interactive content application and, optionally, a video generated by the first user device according to the action sequence running on the native interactive content application. A response is generated by the server based on contents of the message. In some aspects, the server generates a video according to the action sequence to recreate what the action sequence would appear to be if run on the interactive content application. The response can be delivered to the first user device for further distribution or directly to a second user device. Upon clicking a link associated with the response, the second user device can re-engage the action sequence in a web browser without needing to download the interactive content application locally.

  • Publication number: 20180220949
    Abstract: An apparatus for measuring liver fat content and/or iron content non-invasively in vivo using unilateral NMR technology is disclosed. The apparatus comprises a unilateral NMR probe positioned against or in the proximity of the body. The probe generates static and RF magnetic fields to measure NMR signals at selected depths into the body. The apparatus further comprises a unilateral magnet and a unilateral antenna placed between a magnet and the body or around the magnet. The unilateral antenna is used to attain NMR signals. The measurement of NMR signals at a single position with a single frequency determines fat content on a specific volume inside the liver. The measurement of NMR signals at a single position with two or more frequencies determines iron content on a specific volume inside the liver.

  • Publication number: 20180137158
    Abstract: Provided are devices and methods for automated detection of foreign keys linking database tables together. In one example, a device includes a processor that receives a plurality of tables of data, and processes an automated foreign key learning application with respect to the plurality of tables. According to various embodiments, the foreign key learning application identifies at least one foreign key that links a list of columns of a first table to a list of columns of a second table. Furthermore, an output may display a user interface including an identification of the foreign key, the first table, and the second table. Based on the system and methods described herein, the detection of foreign keys may be performed automatically instead of by manual user input thus saving significant time and expense.
