  • Method of providing uniform distribution of light in a phototherapy device
    Patent number: 9205278
    Abstract: A method of computing peak spectral irradiance, the method comprising characterizing at least one light source to determine an irradiance distribution pattern, generating multiple density cones in a three dimensional model based on the irradiance distribution pattern, positioning the multiple density cones in a desired layout, measuring density of irradiance at one or more locations, and optimizing the positioning of the at least one light source to obtain a desired irradiance distribution.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 11, 2012
    Date of Patent: December 8, 2015
    Assignee: GENERAL ELECTRIC COMPANY
    Inventors: Satish Kumar Gopalakrishnan, Sirosh Sivasankaran, Mohammed Yousuf Ali Imran, Manickalinga Soruban Thandapani
  • PHOTOTHERAPY METHOD AND APPARATUS
    Publication number: 20130201574
    Abstract: A system for treating hyperbilirubinemia includes an optical apparatus adapted to separate a light into a plurality of constituent spectral colors. The system also includes a filter adapted to receive the constituent spectral colors from the optical apparatus. The filter is configured to transmit a predefined wavelength range of the constituent spectral colors and to block the remainder of the constituent spectral colors outside the predefined wavelength. The predefined wavelength range exclusively comprises wavelengths suited for the treatment of hyperbilirubinemia.
