Patents by Inventor Mark S. Geisler

Mark S. Geisler has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 9713453
    Abstract: A physiologic transmitter manages multiple communications between physiologic data acquisition devices attached to the patient and a receiver attached to an MRI or CT scanner. The transmitter's processor is able to generate waveform data and trigger data based upon the acquired physiologic data and transmit the data to a physiologic receiver attached to the host scanner. The receiver then is able to deliver a trigger signal to the host scanner for imaging the patient during a selected time frame based upon cardiac and/or respiratory cycles of the patient.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 16, 2015
    Date of Patent: July 25, 2017

  • Publication number: 20090054955
    Abstract: Systems and methods for treating neurological disorders by light stimulation are disclosed herein. A brain neuroillumination system includes an implantable housing; a control unit carried by the implantable housing; a neuroillumination delivery device including at least one light emission site; at least one light source operatively coupled to the control unit and optically coupled to the at least one light emission site; and a near infrared spectroscopy unit coupled to the control unit, wherein the near infrared spectroscopy unit is configures to detect an optical signal corresponding to at least one from the group of a cytochrome oxidase state and a hemoglobin oxygenation state.

  • Patent number: 5314457
    Abstract: A regenerative electrical stimulation device comprising a stimulator portion to be surgically implanted in patients and an external controller portion. The implanted stimulator portion provides electrical stimuli of selected parameters to damaged nerve tissue to stimulate regeneration and/or healing of the damaged nerve tissue. The external controller portion communicates with the implanted stimulator portion to turn the stimulator portion on and off, to change the parameters of the electrical stimuli, to recharge the batteries, and to monitor the status of the batteries. The implanted portion has an antenna coil, a receiver, a programmable control processor, rechargeable batteries, and a passive transmitter. The external controller portion has an antenna coil, a control processor, a transmitter, a receiver for receiving the data passively transmitted by the implantable portion, and a display means.
