  • Patent number: 11992697
    Abstract: A method for treating a diseased site in a human or animal body is provided which includes injecting in a diseased site one or more phosphors which are capable of emitting ultraviolet or visible light into the body; infusing the diseased site with a photoactivatable drug; applying an initiation energy from an initiation energy source comprising an x-ray, gamma ray, or electron source to thereby initiate emission of ultraviolet or visible light into the body; and controlling a dose of the initiation energy with a processor to produce (i) a cytotoxicity inside the diseased site of greater than 20% or (ii) a day-25 stable tumor volume, wherein the processor is programmed to apply the initiation energy in a pulsed manner, wherein the initiation energy is delivered in either (i) a radiograph mode, or (ii) a pulsed fluoroscopy mode.

  • Publication number: 20240119628
    Abstract: A method is provided. The method is implemented by an augmentation engine executing on a processor. The method includes implementing the augmented reality assembly, integration, and testing preparation procedure that causes installation of sensors with respect to a candidate under test and acquiring data and information during the augmented reality assembly, integration, and testing preparation procedure. The data and information includes placement information of the sensors. The method includes correlating the placement information of the sensors with a computer-aided design model to provide an updated model and automatically generating reports from the data and information and the updated model.

  • Publication number: 20240119188
    Abstract: A method is provided. The method is implemented by a procedure generation engine executing on a processor. The method includes processing a computer-aided design model of a candidate under test to determine at least sensor locations and automatically determining augmented reality interactivity between the candidate under test and the sensor locations. The method includes determining a sensor list identifying and corresponding sensors to the sensor locations and generating an augmented reality assembly, integration, and testing preparation procedure based on the sensor locations, the augmented reality interactivity, and the sensor list.

  • Publication number: 20140338520
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an armour module for a vehicle. The armour module comprises a plurality of flexible vertical elements, a plurality of horizontal slats and a connection arrangement for supporting the armour module in a stand-off relation to the vehicle. Both the armour and its support may be flexible and can resiliently deform in response to an impact and thereafter recover.
