  • Publication number: 20160221007
    Abstract: An outlet device with hollow water curtain function includes a hollow housing and a deflecting column inserted in the housing. An annular passage is formed between the housing and the deflecting column. The housing further includes a plurality of arc-shaped inlet slots. The arc inlet slots are annularly arranged about the center of the annular passage. The internal port of the arc inlet slots is connected to the annular passage. Water flows to the annular passage through the arc inlet slots to from a hollow annular water curtain with centrifugal force. When the tangential centrifugal force of the water curtain orienting the opening angle of the housing is larger than the surface tension thereof, the water curtain breaks open to make the water flowing break open and diffuse as particles after keeping itself in a certain length. The diffused water forms a water type continuous in a certain range.

  • Patent number: 9320916
    Abstract: Radiosurgical treatments of tissues of the heart mitigate arrhythmias and treat other tumerous and non-tumerous disease using an implanted fiducial positioned in or near the heart using cardiac catheterization techniques. The fiducials may be implanted after diagnostic and planning images of the target tissues have been acquired. Fiducial implantation may take place the day of a scheduled radiosurgical treatment. Techniques to accommodate post-planning fiducial implantation may include registration of the implanted fiducial location with the treatment plan, and active fiducials may limit collateral imaging radiation exposure while enhancing tracking accuracy.

  • Publication number: 20160112419
    Abstract: An account login method detects whether an account login request carries an indicator for keeping a logged-in state to determine whether a user decides to keep a logged-in state, and authentication information allocated by an integrated data services platform is stored when it is determined that a logged-in state on a third-party application or website needs to be kept; therefore, in a subsequent login process, the third-party application or website may use the authentication information to automatically perform authentication login to the integrated data services platform.

  • Publication number: 20160051843
    Abstract: A system that generates a three-dimensional model of a tissue surface, for example the inner surface of the heart from two-dimensional image data slices. On this surface, one or more pattern lines are drawn, e.g., by a physician using a user interface, to designate desired lesion(s) on the surface. From the pattern lines, a three-dimensional volume for a lesion can be determined using known constraints. Advantageously, the series of boundaries generated by the three-dimensional volume may be projected back onto the individual CT scans, which then may be transferred to a standard radiosurgical planning tool. A dose cloud may also be projected on the model to aid in evaluating a plan.

  • Publication number: 20150350198
    Abstract: A method for creating a certificate to authenticate a user identity at a web browser includes receiving a login request including a first user identity for a user and generating a first browser-signed certificate using public and secret keys associating the first user identity to the web browser. The first browser-signed certificate is sent to a first identity provider server and in response a first server-signed certificate is received from the first identity provider server. The first server-signed certificate associates the first user identity to the first identity provider server. A final certificate is generated by merging the first browser-signed certificate with the first server-signed certificate.
