  • Methods and apparatus for ultrasonic determination of red blood cell indices
    Patent number: 7838296
    Abstract: The present invention provides an apparatus and method for measuring the properties of blood using ultrasound. The present invention is particularly suitable for measuring HCT, HGB, MCV, RBC, MCHC, MCH or TPC of blood.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 28, 2002
    Date of Patent: November 23, 2010
    Assignee: Separation Technology, Inc.

  • Method and apparatus for ultrasonic determination of hematocrit and hemoglobin concentrations
    Patent number: 7523649
    Abstract: An ultrasonic field-portable system for accurately measuring hematocrit (HCT) and hemoglobin concentration (HGB) in small food samples. The system includes an analyzer (10) that allows extremely accurate measurements of blood hematocrit from only one or two drops of +>>d collected in a disposable sampling device (12) that is then inserted into the analyzer (10). The system is compact enough to package into a point of care device, making it a point of care device with accuracy comparable to larger CBC lab equipment.
