  • CATHETER ELECTRODE THAT CAN SIMULTANEOUSLY EMIT ELECTRICAL ENERGY AND FACILITATE VISUALIZATION BY MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING
    Publication number: 20120226143
    Abstract: A catheter comprises an elongate body extending along a first longitudinal axis and having an outermost radial surface; a coil wound in a substantially cylindrical shape and extending along a second longitudinal axis that is coincident with the first longitudinal axis. At least a portion of the coil is proximate to the outermost radial surface of the elongate body.

  • Divided exhaust manifold system and method
    Patent number: 7287378
    Abstract: A flow including air and exhaust gas is received at a boost pressure at a plurality of cylinders (103). Exhaust gas is expelled from a first subset of the plurality of cylinders (103) into a first divided exhaust manifold (103). Exhaust gas is expelled from a second subset of the plurality of cylinders into a second divided exhaust manifold (111). The first subset and the second subset are different. An exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system receives at an EGR inlet (131 or 201 and 211) a part of the exhaust gas from the first divided exhaust manifold (109) and a part of the exhaust gas from the second divided exhaust manifold (111).
