  • Reducing sensor interference in a medical device
    Patent number: 11751952
    Abstract: A medical sensing system (100) includes an elongate interventional device (101) and an adjustable capacitance circuit (102). The elongate interventional device (101) includes a sensor (103) having a capacitance (Css). The elongate interventional device (101) also includes a first electrical conductor (104) and a second electrical conductor (105). The first electrical conductor (104) and the second electrical conductor (105) are in electrical contact with the sensor (103) and extend along the elongate interventional device (101). The elongate interventional device (101) also includes i) an electrically conductive shield (106) that overlaps the electrical conductors (104, 105) and/or ii) an electrically conductive shaft (107).

  • System and A Method for Determination of an Orientation of a Biomedical Stimulation Device
    Publication number: 20120303088
    Abstract: The application relates to a system (1) for determination of an orientation (14) of a biomedical stimulation device (2) in respect to an object (20). The system comprises the first biomedical stimulation device (2) comprising at least two stimulator for elements (4A;4C) and a generator (22) arranged for feeding the stimulator elements (4A;4C) with time-varying electric signals (6A;6C), wherein the time-varying electric signals (6A;6C) differ by a predetermined phase.
