Abstract: The present invention relates to, among other things, probes, compositions, methods, and kits for simultaneous, multiplexed detection and quantification of protein and/or nucleic acid expression in a user-defined region of a tissue, user-defined cell, and/or user-defined subcellular structure within a cell.

Abstract: A billing method is provided for billing for medical treatments and other services. The method includes capturing a treatment event by electronically scanning, at the time of the treatment event, a machine readable patient identifier (e.g., a bar code) carried by a patient treatment chart. The chart has entered thereon a prescribed treatment schedule. Capture of treatment event is entered into a computerized billing system along with the corresponding patient identifier. The patient treatment chart is used to validate charges entered into the system. All treatment events that are entered into the billing system for a particular patient identifier are collected and an invoice is generated for all of the collected treatment events entered into the billing system for the specific patient identifier. A method is also provided for tracking the patient treatment chart as an alerting device in checking on charge capture.

Abstract: A planar circulator assembly includes a dielectric substrate having a first surface and an opposing second surface, a plurality of circulator circuits, each circulator circuit having a first ferrite receiving pad disposed on the first surface and a second ferrite receiving pad; disposed on the second surface a first sub-assembly board disposed on the first surface having a plurality of first apertures, a plurality of ferrite-magnet sub-assemblies, each ferrite-magnet sub-assembly disposed in a corresponding first aperture and aligned with a corresponding first ferrite receiving pad and electromagnetically coupled to the corresponding first ferrite receiving pad.
