  • Patent number: 11957893
    Abstract: A neuromodulation therapy is delivered via at least one electrode implanted subcutaneously and superficially to a fascia layer superficial to a nerve of a patient. In one example, an implantable medical device is deployed along a superficial surface of a deep fascia tissue layer superficial to a nerve of a patient. Electrical stimulation energy is delivered to the nerve through the deep fascia tissue layer via implantable medical device electrodes.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20240100199
    Abstract: The present invention provides compounds with imaging moieties for imaging a subject. The present invention also relates to systems, compositions, and methods for the synthesis and use of imaging agents, or precursors thereof. An imaging agent precursor may be converted to an imaging agent using the methods described herein. In some cases, a composition or plurality of imaging agents is enriched in 18F. In some cases, an imaging agent may be used to image an area of interest in a subject, including, but not limited to, the heart, cardiovascular system, cardiac vessels, brain, and other organs.

  • Patent number: 4931907
    Abstract: An electronic module (6) and integrally mounted latch assembly (2) includes a latch handle assembly (4) mounted to the module and a keeper (8) mounted to a housing (10). The latch handle assembly includes a U-shaped handle (18) having an elongate lever (42) pivotally mounted to one leg (22) of the handle at latch end (46) of the lever. The latch end has a cam surface (64) which engages the keeper. The outer, catch end (44) of the lever is configured to engage a spring-loaded catch button (50) mounted to the other leg (20) of the handle. A disenable switch pin (72) is mounted to the handle to resiliently engage the underside (80) of the lever so that when the lever is in the latched position, the lever keeps the disenable switch pin depressed. The pin is long enough to engage an enable switch (96) within the housing when so depressed.

  • Patent number: 4356349
    Abstract: A method and apparatus are described for processing audio signals in a particular manner to achieve an enhancement in the perceived sound when the processed audio signals are projected by audio transducers. A predetermined low frequency band of the audio signals is delayed by a time period which is generally less than the refractory period of the human ear and combined with out-of-phase cross-field portions within a particular amplitude range. A predetermined low frequency boost is applied generally of the order of about 3 db. Several embodiments are described to provide improved recordings or enhanced acoustic projections of conventional stereo recordings.
