Abstract: The present invention relates to systems for use for radio frequency ablation. The systems can include one or more of an ablation tool, power source for use with the ablation tool and a backstop for use in conjunction with the ablation tool during surgical procedures. Preferred ablation tools comprise a series of three or more blade-shaped electrodes disposed in a linear, curved, curvilinear or circular array. The backstops are useful for reducing direct physical and thermal heat transfer injuries to the patient or surgeon during procedures using radiofrequency (RF) ablation devices.

Abstract: A system and method of delivering a radiation therapy treatment plan to a patient. The treatment plan is delivered using a radiation therapy system including a moveable support for supporting a patient, a gantry moveable relative to the support and supporting a radiation source and multi-leaf collimator for modulating the radiation source. The support and gantry are moved during delivery of the treatment plan.

Abstract: A wind power generation assembly having a rotatable base. Attached to the base are a plurality of arcuate panels that surround a turbine assembly. The center axis of the base and the center axis of the turbine assembly are offset. The panels are positioned to capture the wind and redirect the wind energy to the turbine assembly.

Abstract: The energy crisis that has long been accepted in the scientific community is being embraced by society along with an increasing sense of environmental responsibility. Solar will be a large part of the renewable energy revolution. Solar harnessing technology has primarily focused on solar farms or on off-grid, residential use and mostly on warm, dry climates that have high percentages of clear sky. Cooler, wetter climates have seen less research and resources dedicated to solutions and indeed have a different set of requirements than for traditional desert solar farms. This invention provides a simple tracking solar solution that combines both concentrated photovoltaic CPV and traditional photovoltaic (PV), although the solution can use only CPV or PV. The invention reduces the structural and drive demands by shielding the solar collecting mechanisms inside an enclosure and then connecting the collecting mechanisms in synchronous arrays.
