    • The invention provides improved apparatus and methods for treating congestive heart failure in a medical patient. The apparatus includes a pressure transducer permanently implantable within the left atrium of the patient's heart and operable to generate electrical signals indicative of fluid pressures within the patient's left atrium. The pressure transducer is connected to a flexible electrical lead, which is connected in turn to electrical circuitry, which in the preferred embodiment includes digital circuitry for processing electrical signals. The electrical circuitry processes the electrical signals from the pressure transducer and, based at least in part on those signals, generates a signal that indicates a desired therapeutic treatment for treating the patient's condition. That signal is then communicated to the patient via a patient signaling device, following which the patient administers to him or herself the prescribed therapeutic treatment indicated by the signal.

    • Techniques are provided for estimating left atrial pressure (LAP) or other cardiac pressure parameters based on various parameters derived from impedance signals. In particular, effective LAP is estimated based on one or more of: electrical conductance values, cardiogenic pulse amplitudes, circadian rhythm pulse amplitudes, or signal morphology fractionation values, each derived from the impedance signals detected by the implantable device. Predetermined conversion factors stored within the device are used to convert the various parameters derived from the electrical impedance signal into LAP values or other appropriate cardiac pressure values. The conversion factors may be, for example, slope and baseline values derived during an initial calibration procedure performed by an external system, such as an external programmer. In some examples, the slope and baseline values may be periodically re-calibrated by the implantable device itself.
    • 提供了基于从阻抗信号导出的各种参数来估计左心房压力(LAP)或其他心脏压力参数的技术。 特别地,基于以下中的一个或多个估计有效的LAP:电导值,心源性脉搏幅度,昼夜节奏脉搏幅度或信号形态分级值,每个来自由可植入装置检测的阻抗信号。 存储在装置内的预定转换因子用于将从电阻抗信号导出的各种参数转换为LAP值或其他适当的心脏压力值。 转换因子可以是例如由外部系统(诸如外部编程器)执行的初始校准过程期间导出的斜率和基线值。 在一些示例中,可以通过可植入装置本身周期性地重新校准斜率和基线值。

    • A system and method for eluting one or more radioisotope processing elements, such as generators and/or concentration and purification components, with a gas over eluent delivery mechanism is disclosed. The system is adapted to an elution/concentration system using two such mechanisms, one for an initial elution of one or more generators, and a second for "re-elution" of concentrated and purified radioisotope contained in a concentration subsystem. The operation of such a dual mechanism system may also be completely or partially automated. The invention also discloses a concentration subsystem containing all single-use components needed for concentration and/or purification, as a single use, self sealed, cartridge that can safely store waste eluate for safe and simple disposal.

    • A method of displaying details of a coronary artery lesion in a cineangiogram, by adjusting each frame of the cineangiogram so that the lesion is continually displayed at a fixed location on a display. The remaining cardiac anatomy appears to move, in background, past a stationary arterial segment, thus making the displayed arterial segment easier to identify and to examine by medical personnel. Cineangiographic image frames are digitized and processed by a processor and the image frames are digitally shifted to place the arterial segment in substantially the same viewing location in each frame. Sequential image frames may be presented to the viewer as a stereoscopic pair, to produce pseudostereopsis. The arterial segment appears to the viewer in foreground, as if it was floating in front of the remaining cardiac anatomy. Image frames may be further processed to aid examination by medical personnel. The processor may make quantitative measurements of the cineangiogram and may display results of those measurements to aid review of the cineangiogram. Frames may be averaged to reduce quantum noise and to blur any structure noise; frames may be compared with prior cineangiograms to increase clarity or contrast. Coordinate adjustments for a cineangiogram may help guide therapeutic procedures, or may help enhance other imaging procedures such as fluoroscopy.
    • 通过调整每一帧电影照相图,使病变在显示器上的固定位置不断显示,显示电影照相中的冠状动脉病变的细节的方法。 剩余的心脏解剖似乎在背景中移动通过静止的动脉段,从而使得显示的动脉段更容易识别和由医务人员进行检查。 血管造影图像帧由处理器数字化和处理,并且图像帧被数字移位以将动脉段在每个帧中基本上相同的观察位置。 顺序图像帧可以作为立体对呈现给观看者,以产生伪造图。 动脉段在前景中出现在观察者身上,好像它悬浮在剩下的心脏解剖结构的前面。 可以进一步处理图像帧以帮助医务人员进行检查。 处理器可以对电影图像进行定量测量,并且可以显示那些测量结果以帮助检查电影照相。 可以对帧进行平均以减少量子噪声并模糊任何结构噪声; 可以将帧与先前的电影显像进行比较以增加清晰度或对比度。 电影照相机的坐标调整可能有助于指导治疗过程,或可能有助于增强其他成像过程,如荧光透视。
