  • Publication number: 20240081027
    Abstract: A thermal enclosure for a computer having a processor and a display is disclosed and may include an inner case. The thermal enclosure may further include a heat sink attached to the inner case and thermally connected to the processor. The heat sink may have an outer heat dissipation channel. The thermal enclosure may also include an outer housing that at least partially the envelops the inner case. The outer housing may have a rear housing portion and a front housing portion. The rear housing portion, the front housing portion, and the outer heat dissipation channel may define a heat dissipation opening that may have an overall width, W, and an overall depth, D, the outer heat dissipation channel may be recessed within the heat dissipation opening and W and D may be adapted to prevent a human finger from coming into contact with the outer heat dissipation channel.

  • Patent number: 8409183
    Abstract: Inducing thrombolysis of thermally induced thrombus occurring during endovenous ablation of varicose veins by introducing an optical fiber laser deliver device with optical fiber portion and with an energy emitting tip at its distal end into the varicosed vein to be treated, emitting pulsed, laser energy with sufficient energy to close and destroy varicose veins to the emitting tip of the optical fiber laser delivery device, thereby inducing laser thrombolysis of coagulated blood which accumulates at the energy emitting tip of the fiber when the fiber is caused to emit energy in the presence of uncoagulated blood and minimizing adverse effects associated with thermally induced thrombus within a varicose vein.
