  • Analysis of calorimetry measurements
    Patent number: 11079288
    Abstract: A method determining a degree of similarity between a first sample and a second sample, comprising using a processor to compare a first thermogram and a second thermogram, each obtained by performing scanning calorimetry on a first and second sample respectively, by: determining a smoothed first thermogram and a smoothed second thermogram by respectively performing a smoothing operation on the first thermogram and the second thermogram; determining a processed first thermogram and a processed second thermogram by respectively finding a derivative of the smoothed first thermogram and the smoothed second thermogram; determining the degree of similarity from a correlation operation comparing the processed first thermogram with the processed second thermogram.

  • System and method for locating and accessing a blood vessel
    Patent number: 7532746
    Abstract: An imaging system for locating subcutaneous blood vessels and a method for locating subcutaneous blood vessels using the system. The system includes at least one infrared emitter an infrared detector, a computing unit that enhances images and outputs enhanced images in substantially real time, a display device for displaying enhanced images, and a power source. The method includes the steps of preparing a body target area, putting on the headset, powering up the system, locating a target blood vessel, inserting a needle into the target blood vessel, and performing the medical procedure.

  • System and method for inserting a needle into a blood vessel
    Publication number: 20060173351
    Abstract: A needle insertion system and method. The insertion system includes an imaging system and a needle. The imaging system includes at least one infrared emitter an infrared detector, a computing unit, a display device, and a power source. The method includes the steps of preparing a body target area, putting on the headset, powering up the system, locating a target blood vessel, picking up the needle, aligning the needle with the target blood vessel, inserting the needle, advancing the needle until a sufficient depth of penetration has been reached, and withdrawing the needle.
