Publication number: 20240387044Abstract: A system for improving patient outcomes for musculoskeletal care that utilizes an algorithm trained using images of musculoskeletal pathology. The system can include numerous models where each model can be trained with images from MRIs, CT Scans, X-Rays, and PET scans, or any other existing imaging technology capable of imaging a patient's musculoskeletal pathology. The system can annotate the images to generate reports with the annotations for further use in diagnosing a disease or reporting to an insurance provider.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 14, 2024Publication date: November 21, 2024Inventors: Sreenivas Sukumar, Adam Bruggeman, John Burrow, Lloyd Wade, Larry Roberts

Patent number: 11938372Abstract: An improved exercise assembly structured to be struck by a user includes a base supporting a shaft on a supporting surface. A support shaft extends outwardly from the supporting surface. At least one target is connected to the support shaft and extends outwardly. The at least one target is connected to a breakaway mechanism, which is connected to a rotational fitting, which connects to the support shaft. The target is able to be struck and rotate around the shaft via the rotational fitting. Upon a misdirected striking (force) inflicting on the target, the breakaway mechanism mitigates forces away from the shaft and rotational fitting in order to reduce total stress on the assembly.Type: GrantFiled: September 21, 2021Date of Patent: March 26, 2024Inventors: Larry Roberts, Bertho Boman

Patent number: 9150343Abstract: A packaging assembly structured to suspend an article within an exterior container and including first and second platforms each having a base with a window extending therethrough and a plurality of side portions extending about the periphery thereof. The side portions are movable into a transverse orientation relative to their respective bases. Connected to the first platform is at least one flexible material bag, which includes an access opening to receive an article. Peripheral portions of the bag connect to side portions of the first platform and are movable therewith into a transverse orientation, facilitating tensioning of the bag and article. Disposition of the second platform in an inverted, retaining position within the exterior container and in confronting relation to the first platform furthers tension of the bag and article. Stabilizing members may be connected to side portions of the exterior container and disposable there within, restricting the article's movement.Type: GrantFiled: March 31, 2014Date of Patent: October 6, 2015Inventor: Larry Roberts

Publication number: 20050228438Abstract: A percutaneous transluminal angioplasty device includes an embolic filter mounted to the catheter shaft at a location distal to the angioplasty balloon. Thus the filter is downstream from the blockage and is properly positioned to capture embolic particles that may be set loose into the blood stream as the angioplasty procedure is performed. The embolic filter is normally collapsed against the catheter shaft to facilitate introduction and withdrawal of the device to and from the operative site. Once the angioplasty balloon is properly positioned, however, means operatively associated with the embolic filter are actuated to erect the filter to position a filter mesh across the lumen of the vessel.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 24, 2004Publication date: October 13, 2005Inventors: Ravish Sachar, Gregg Sutton, Larry Roberts

Patent number: 5579650Abstract: A heat exchanger comprising an elongate tank with top, bottom, side, front and rear walls. A plurality of longitudinally spaced partitions are positioned within the tank and define an elongate serpentine or zig-zag liquid conducting flow passage with upstream and downstream ends. An elongate serpentine or zig-zag formed fluid coolant conducting coil is positioned centrally within and extends longitudinally of the flow passage. The coil has an upstream end portion exiting the tank at the downstream end of the flow passage and a downstream end portion exiting the tank at the upstream end of the flow passage. Liquid inlet and outlet fittings connected with a valve-controlled fluid supply and dispensing means conduct liquid into and out of the flow passage.Type: GrantFiled: April 10, 1995Date of Patent: December 3, 1996Inventors: Robert K.
