Publication number: 20240341849Abstract: Various methods, systems, and devices for treating tissue ablation are disclosed. Some embodiments disclosed herein pertain to methods of treating tumors, systems used for irradiating tissue and tumors with electromagnetic radiation, components and devices of that system, and kits for providing systems used for irradiating tissue and tumors with electromagnetic radiation. In some embodiments, the system provides sub-ablative infrared radiation that is absorbed by nanoparticles. In some embodiments, the nanoparticles absorb the radiation converting it into heat energy. In some embodiments, though the infrared radiation itself may be sub-ablative, the heat energy generated by the nanoparticles is sufficient to cause thermal coagulation, hyperthermia, and/or tissue ablation.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 21, 2024Publication date: October 17, 2024Inventors: Glenn Patrick Goodrich, Jon Schwartz, Andrew Mark Murphy

Publication number: 20070241615Abstract: A switched outlet module which controls power to one or more electrically powered devices which are connected to the module and which are under the control of a wall switch has a plurality of output jacks. A first pair of output jacks are switched outlet jacks and a second pair of output jacks are unswitched outlet jacks. A switching device is coupled to the plurality of outlet jacks to control which of the plurality of output jacks are the switched output jacks. Connectors are coupled to the switched outlet jacks for connecting remote controlled devices that control electronic devices coupled to the switched outlet jacks. Control circuitry is coupled to the switching device to monitor and limit a current through the switched outlet jacks, to monitor and limit a current through the switching device, and to interpret signals from remote controlled devices coupled to the connectors. Contacts are coupled to the control circuitry to couple the module to a switched electrical receptacle.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 14, 2006Publication date: October 18, 2007Inventor: Patrick Goodrich

Patent number: 6160887Abstract: A loop-current regulator for protecting terminal telephone equipment coupled to telephone lines from high telephone line loop-current. The loop-current regulator has a current regulator for protecting the terminal telephone equipment from excess power generated by current signals which pass through the telephone lines to the terminal telephone equipment. A signal network circuit is coupled to the current regulator for providing an alternating current (AC) path for AC signals to pass by the current regulator while minimizing attenuation of the AC signals. A bridge rectifier circuit is coupled to the current regulator, the signal network circuit, and the telephone lines for allowing the current signals to pass in only a single direction through the current regulator and the signal network circuit regardless of the polarity of the telephone lines.Type: GrantFiled: May 2, 1997Date of Patent: December 12, 2000Inventor: Patrick Goodrich
