Abstract: A system receives suspect traffic information pertaining to possible network threats. A router detects and redirects suspect traffic from within a subnetwork to an interrogation module. The interrogation module receives the redirected suspect traffic and identifies the source device from within the subnetwork. The interrogation module can also identify the type of suspect traffic, the original destination of the suspect traffic and the protocol type of the packet. Suspect traffic information can be updated and the router can be reconfigured to accommodate the updated information.

Abstract: There is provided an adhesive composite cover and method of use in which the cover is well suited to effectively cover a temporary tattoo utilized in radiation therapy treatments. The cover includes a transparent, flexible layer with a rigid layer releasably adhered thereto. The first, flexible layer has a lower adhesive surface, an upper low-adhesion surface and a predefined peripheral edge. The second, rigid layer has a lower surface releasably adhered to the upper low-adhesion surface of the first layer, an opposing upper exposed surface, and a peripheral edge cooperative with the predefined peripheral edge of the first layer to preserve the integrity of the first layer during handling and application. The second layer is removed from the first layer only after the first layer is adhered to a patient's skin.

Abstract: A marking grid is provided for use in radiographic imaging, and a method is provided for manufacturing the marking grid. The marking grid is comprised of a radiolucent substrate with a pressure sensitive adhesive on one side, a plurality of parallel strips of radiopaque material fixed to the substrate on the side opposite the pressure sensitive adhesive, and apertures in the substrate between the parallel strips of radiopaque material. The substrate is provided on a releasable backing with a plurality of holes longitudinally spaced relative to each other, which can be used to register the position of the substrate in the equipment used to produce the marking grids.

Abstract: A device is provided for transporting a tissue specimen without the risk of exposing health-care workers to potentially hazardous tissue fluids. The device includes a container, a flexible portion, a first support member received in the container, a second support member extending from the fist support member, a first locating indicia on a first side of the first supporting member, and a second substantially radiopaque locating indicia on a second side of the first support member, and an indicating member movably mounted on the first side of the first support member. The first support member has a first locating indicia on a first surface and a second locating indicia on a second surface, which generates a radiographic image when exposed to x-rays.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for use in supporting and/or guiding a medical device to be inserted into the body of a patient.
