Abstract: There is provided a method and a system for ultrasound imaging in presence of relative motion between a body and an imaging probe. A plurality of Eulerian-based ultrasound images of the body acquired at successive times T with the imaging probe is obtained. Lagrangian coordinates for the body are computed using data from the Eulerian-based ultrasound images. Lagrangian-based ultrasound images of the body are formed by providing the data from the Eulerian-based ultrasound images in the Lagrangian coordinate system.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein include a modular transcatheterly implantable medical device. The medical device includes a plurality of assemblable blood pumps. Each one of the blood pumps includes a pump unit and an electrical wire configured for the pump unit to be electrically operated through the electrical wire. The medical device also includes an anchor having a first end portion and a second end portion, and the anchor is configured to intraluminally assemble to and intraluminally unassemble from the blood pumps. The medical device also includes a catheter. The catheter is configured to be in a slidable relationship with each one of the electrical wires for intraluminally assembling the blood pumps to the anchor and for intraluminally unassembling the blood pumps from the anchor. The medical device further includes a flexible linker configured to couple the catheter and the anchor.

Abstract: An implantable medical device includes a functional unit, an introducer unit for introducing and/or navigating the functional unit in a lumen of body conduit(s) of a subject, and an elongated operable element connectable to a controller for operating the functional unit though the elongated operable element in a lumen of body conduit(s) of the subject. The functional unit, introducer unit, and elongated operable element may be in a slidable relationship for assembling and unassembling the implantable medical device in vivo. The implantable medical device is implantable, explantable, and operable in a lumen of body conduit(s) of a subject according to related methods.

Abstract: There is provided a method and a system for ultrasound imaging in presence of relative motion between a body and an imaging probe. A plurality of Eulerian-based ultrasound images of the body acquired at successive times T with the imaging probe is obtained. Lagrangian coordinates for the body are computed using data from the Eulerian-based ultra-sound images. Lagrangian-based ultrasound images of the body are formed by providing the data from the Eulerian-based ultrasound images in the Lagrangian coordinate system.

Abstract: The invention relates to an adapter and to a filling method giving the possibility of flexibility in the transfer of fluids from a filling cell to a fluidic circuit, depending on the different filling levels required on a production line, notably finding application for the transfer of fluids such as coolant fluid, brake fluid, air-conditioning fluid, to the corresponding fluidic circuit of a vehicle, for example on an automotive assembly line, or further in the energy sector for filling electric radiators with a fluid. The adapter comprises a conduit 4 connected to the filling cell 16 for sucking up filling fluid 5 contained in, and filling with the filling fluid 5, the fluidic circuit 2, and a plunger tube 6, secured to a piston 7 axially adjustable on an axis Y in a first guiding tube 9, having first and second ends 14, and connected through the first end to the conduit.
