  • Patent number: 11642497
    Abstract: Disclosed are a multi-guidewire balloon dilatation catheter structure, a dilatation catheter mechanism and a medical device. The multi-guidewire balloon dilatation catheter comprises a balloon, a first guidewire channel, a second guidewire channel and a third guidewire channel. The first guidewire channel is at least partially passed through the balloon. The second guidewire channel is at least partially located at the distal end of the balloon. The third guidewire channel is at least partially located at the proximal end of the balloon. In the multi-guidewire balloon dilatation catheter structure of this embodiment, each guidewire channel can be used for accommodating the guidewire by providing the first guidewire channel and the second/third guidewire channel to assemble various devices on the single catheter of the present invention, thereby realizing simultaneous execution of device guidance, plaque cutting, guidewire anchoring, etc. The structure is simple and good in use effect.

  • Publication number: 20230079478
    Abstract: Methods and systems describe providing face mesh deformation with detailed wrinkles. A neutral mesh based on a scan of a face is provided along with initial control point positions on the neutral mesh and user-defined control point positions corresponding to a non-neutral facial expression. A radial basis function (RBF) deformed mesh is generated based on RBF interpolation of the initial control point positions and the user-defined control point positions. Predicted wrinkle deformation data is then generated by one or more cascaded regressors networks. Finally, a final deformed mesh is provided with wrinkles based on the predicted wrinkle deformation data.

  • Publication number: 20230023758
    Abstract: Disclosed is a multifunctional balloon dilatation catheter for intracorporeal membrane oxygenation, comprising: a catheter hub, a dilatation balloon, and M channels. The M channels comprise at least a balloon dilatation channel for dilating the narrowed part of the airway, a positioning & detection channel for positioning or detecting while inserting, a supply channel for continuous oxygen supply or drug administration to the patient, and a secretion removal channel for removing secretions from the airway. The catheter hub is a multi-channel connection device, through which the M channels are respectively connected to the external therapeutic devices of the catheter. The catheter is inserted into a bronchiole of the lungs. When using the catheter for emergency treatment of patients with pneumonia, especially COVID-19, measures such as airway dilatation, oxygen supply, sputum suction and biopsy can be simultaneously performed, thereby improving the survival rate of patients and reducing lung damage.
