  • Patent number: 10478158
    Abstract: The invention concerns a preoperative probe (2) for guiding an ablation tool, comprising a sensing head (21), said sensing head including: at least one optic fiber (2121, 2123) for receiving and guiding a signal emitted, by radioactive tracers and/or fluorescent molecules in a tissue zone, to an analyzing equipment (32), fixing means (2112) for mounting the head (21) on the ablation tool (1), such that the ablation tool is capable of extracting a portion of tissue in the tissue zone emitting the signal.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9775573
    Abstract: A peroperative probe for guiding a manual excision tool. The probe includes a detection head, an optical fiber for the reception and guidance of a signal emitted by radioactive tracers and fluorescent molecules in a tissue area, a photo-detector for converting the emitted signal into an electrical signal, a transmitter for transmitting information carried by the electrical signal to an analysis equipment, and a fastener for attaching the probe onto the manual excision tool, so that the excision tool can be used to remove a portion of tissue from the tissue area emitting the signal.

  • Publication number: 20100298700
    Abstract: Device that can be implanted into the brain, in particular that of a small animal (16), for the detection of radiation emitted by disintegration of a radioisotope, characterized in that it comprises an implantable detector (10) made of a semiconductor material and comprising a number of individual detectors (22), the device also including a system (14) of amplification, shaping, counting and wireless remote transmission circuits that are connected to the individual detectors (22) and are intended to be worn by the animal (16), the latter being awake and free to move.

  • Patent number: 6407391
    Abstract: An apparatus is disclosed for use on a collimator of a radio-imaging device. The system includes a stack of plates provided with perforations, the thickness (d) of the plates being less than the diameter of the perforations in the internal entry face of the collimator. The thickness of the span between the perforations is made greater than the thickness of the plates.
