20100069741 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DETECTION OF ELECTROMAGNETIC RADIATION BY AMORPHOUS SILICON X-RAY DETECTOR FOR METAL DETECTION IN X-RAY IMAGING - Certain embodiments of the present invention provide a method for detecting an electromagnetic field in an imaging system including emitting an electromagnetic field with an electromagnetic transmitter, sensing an electromagnetic field with an imaging system detector, and reading a field image from the detector based at least in part on the electromagnetic field. The imaging system detector is capable of reading an object image and a field image. The detector may be an amorphous silicon flat panel x-ray detector. The electromagnetic transmitter may be used in surgical navigation. The position of a surgical device, instrument, and/or tool may be determined based in part on the field image. The detector may be coordinated to acquire the field image when the electromagnetic transmitter is emitting an electromagnetic field. The detector may be coordinated to acquire the object image when the electromagnetic transmitter is not emitting an electromagnetic field. | 03-18-2010 |
20100185459 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR X-RAY IMAGE IDENTIFICATION - Systems and methods for x-ray image identification are provided. The systems and methods associate patient information with image information. The method includes acquiring patient information from an identification member external to the digital x-ray detector and storing the patient information within the x-ray detector or on an image. The method further includes associating the patient information with the images acquired by the x-ray imaging system and communicating the acquired images with associated information to a host system when the x-ray detector is connected to the host system. | 07-22-2010 |
20120074329 | DIGITAL X-RAY DETECTOR WITH INCREASED DYNAMIC RANGE - In one embodiment, a digital X-ray detector is provided with a plurality of pixel regions. Each pixel region includes a first photodiode having a first area and a second photodiode having a second area equal to or smaller than the first area. The digital X-ray detector also includes a shielding structure that overlies the first and second photodiodes of each pixel region with the shielding structure shielding proportionally less of the first photodiode than of the second photodiode to provide the first photodiode with a first sensitivity and the second photodiode with a second sensitivity lower than the first sensitivity. | 03-29-2012 |
20120275569 | RADIOLOGICAL IMAGE NOISE REDUCTION SYSTEM AND METHOD - A method for controlling a X-ray radiography system includes acquiring data from a digital X-ray detector, characterizing electromagnetic interference based upon the acquired data, selecting an electromagnetic interference compensation algorithm based upon the characterized electromagnetic interference, acquiring X-ray imaging data via the digital X-ray detector based upon the selected electromagnetic interference compensation algorithm, and processing the X-ray imaging data to produce image data capable of reconstruction in a user viewable form. | 11-01-2012 |
20130256543 | DIGITAL X-RAY DETECTION HAVING AT LEAST ONE TRUNCATED CORNER - In one embodiment, a digital X-ray detector includes a plurality of pixel regions. Each pixel region includes one or more photodiodes. The plurality of pixel regions form a detector panel having at least one corner truncated with respect to a rectangle to form a rounded shape or greater than four-sided polygon. | 10-03-2013 |

20090087397 | Mascara Composition - Mascara compositions containing a keratin conditioning agent, alone or in combination with an emollient/moisturizing agent, provide increased resistance of eyelash hair fibers to breaking. Low viscosity mascara composition of the invention containing low concentrations of surfactant and wax are easily removable from the eyelashes. Mascara compositions of the invention reduce eyelash damage and though having low viscosity (as compared to typical prior art compositions) surprisingly provide excellent buildup, lengthening and wear. | 04-02-2009 |

Low viscosity mascara composition of the invention containing low concentrations of surfactant and wax are easily removable from the eyelashes. Mascara compositions of the invention reduce eyelash damage and though having low viscosity (as compared to typical prior art compositions) surprisingly provide excellent buildup, lengthening and wear. | 04-14-2011 |
20120110752 | Method For Improving Color Retention In Artificially Colored Hair - Compositions and methods are disclosed for preventing or reducing loss of color from color-treated keratin fibers by forming a water-resistant coating on hair comprise a combination of a hydrophobic particulate material comprising a hydrophobically surface-modified oxide and one or more hydrophobic film formers in a cosmetically acceptable vehicle. | 05-10-2012 |
20120259252 | Coupling Emulsions for Use With Ultrasound Devices - Methods and cosmetic coupling compositions are provided that can be effectively used in conjunction with an ultrasound or similar device. The compositions and methods allow extended manipulation on the skin and heating without breaking down, pilling or balling and while maintaining a pleasant cosmetic feel and leaving skin feeling soft. | 10-11-2012 |

20150061991 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR MANIPULATING CONTENT IN AN INTERFACE - A machine implemented method includes sensing entities in first and second domains. If a first stimulus is present and an entity is in the first domain, the entity is transferred from first to second domain via a bridge. If a second stimulus is present and an entity is in the second domain, the entity is transferred from second first domain via the bridge. At least some of the first domain is outputted. An apparatus includes a processor that defines first and second domains and a bridge that enables transfer of entities between domains, an entity identifier that identifies entities in the domains, a stimulus identifier that identifies stimuli, and a display that outputs at least some of the first domain. The processor transfers entities from first to second domain responsive to a first stimulus, and transfers entities from second to first domain responsive to a second stimulus. | 03-05-2015 |
