Scanning Densitometry System With Adjustable X-Ray Tube Current

View page
US Patent:
6438201, Aug 20, 2002
Filed:
Aug 1, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/630102
Inventors:
Richard B. Mazess - Madison WI
David L. Ergun - Verona WI
Assignee:
Lunar Corporation - Madison WI
International Classification:
G01N 23087
US Classification:
378 56, 378 989, 378108
Abstract:
A dual energy scanning densitometry system for imaging and measuring bone density maintains acceptable flux by adjusting the x-ray current or scan speed according to preceding scan line data. The amount of acceptable flux is maintained within limits modified by information about the region of the body being scanned so that different precisions may be maintained for different body regions. Scan speed and current may be controlled so that scan speed is maximized within the current limits. Essentially continuous flux control can be achieved.

Industrial Inspection Method And Apparatus Using Dual Energy X-Ray Attenuation

View page
US Patent:
6449334, Sep 10, 2002
Filed:
Sep 29, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/675224
Inventors:
Richard B. Mazess - Madison WI
David L. Ergun - Verona WI
Assignee:
Lunar Corporation - Madison WI
International Classification:
G01N 2306
US Classification:
378 53, 378 58
Abstract:
An industrial inspection device uses measurements at two x-ray energy to measure the relative proportions of two materials of a binary industrial composition by determining a mass ratio of a preselected selected first and second material expected to be in the binary composition and such as would provide a photoelectric absorption and Compton scattering consistent with the attenuation of the x-rays at the first and second energy. A relative proportion at different locations can be used to develop an image of one basis material. The image can be used to determine whether a product has an unacceptable composition or inclusions of foreign bodies.

Method Of Inspecting Meat For Bone Content Using Dual Energy X-Ray Attenuation

View page
US Patent:
6597759, Jul 22, 2003
Filed:
Aug 7, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/214893
Inventors:
Richard B. Mazess - Madison WI
David L. Ergun - Verona WI
Assignee:
GE-Lunar Corporation - Madison WI
International Classification:
G01N 2306
US Classification:
378 53, 378 57, 378 989
Abstract:
A meat inspection device uses measurements at two x-ray energies to detect bone in meat samples by determining a mass ratio of bone to meat such as would provide a photoelectric absorption and Compton scattering consistent with the attenuation of the x-rays at the two energies. A relative proportion at different locations can be used to develop an image of the bone. The image can be used to determine whether a product has an unacceptable composition of bone.

Fluoroscopy Machine With Head Mounted Display

View page
US Patent:
6608884, Aug 19, 2003
Filed:
Jul 19, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/619382
Inventors:
Richard B. Mazess - Madison WI
David L. Ergun - Verona WI
Assignee:
Lunar Corporation - Madison WI
International Classification:
H05G 164
US Classification:
378 98, 378 982, 378 988, 378 42, 600425
Abstract:
A fluoroscopy machine includes an x-ray source and detector mounted in spaced relation to a support arm, an image processor and a display device. The display device includes image optics attached to a head mount wearable by a person, such as a physician or technician. The image displayed by the image optics can be processed by the image processor to present an orientationally accurate image corresponding to the head mount wearers field of view. For example, the image can be processed to correct for angle of rotation, translation and/or perspective distortion.

Bone Densitometer Providing Improved Longitudinal Studies

View page
US Patent:
7069066, Jun 27, 2006
Filed:
Oct 25, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/972902
Inventors:
Scott Steven Zeller - Madison WI, US
Grant Morey Stevens - Verona WI, US
Paul Eugene Markwardt - Verona WI, US
Russell Harry Nord - Ft. Atkinson WI, US
David Lowry Ergun - Verona WI, US
Assignee:
General Electric Company - Schenectady NY
International Classification:
A61B 5/05
G01B 15/02
US Classification:
600407, 378 50, 387 89
Abstract:
An x-ray densitometry system provides improved analysis of bone images taken of a patient over a course of time by comparing the images to deduce positioning errors and/or to correct positioning errors for improved quantitative assessment of the bone.

Examination Table Providing X-Ray Densitometry

View page
US Patent:
7134786, Nov 14, 2006
Filed:
Apr 10, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/411584
Inventors:
Donald T. Settergren - Madison WI, US
Joseph P. Bisek - Oregon WI, US
David Ergun - Verona WI, US
Assignee:
GE Medical Systems Global Technology - Waukesha WI
International Classification:
A61B 6/04
US Classification:
378196, 378195, 378208, 378209
Abstract:
A dual energy x-ray densitometer is incorporated into a standard patient examination table to provide improved access to this screening tool during regular examinations. A repositionable scanning head allows the table to remain unobstructed when scanning is not occurring and a limited scanning area allows the examination table to retain standard examination table features such as table extensions, foot end drawers, trays and stirrups, and a step for access to the high examination table surface.

Examination Table Providing X-Ray Imaging

View page
US Patent:
7168854, Jan 30, 2007
Filed:
Jun 22, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/872996
Inventors:
David Lowry Ergun - Verona WI, US
Richard Franklin Morris - Stoughton WI, US
Assignee:
General Electric Company - Schenectady NY
International Classification:
A61B 6/04
US Classification:
378196, 378195, 378208, 378209
Abstract:
A multi-use examination table provides x-ray imaging thereby conserving examination room space and to speed patient examination while retaining standard examination table features such as table extensions, foot end drawers, trays and stirrups, and a step for access to the high examination table surface. A repositionable imaging boom allows the table to remain unobstructed when x-ray imaging is not required.

Transverse Scanning Bone Densitometer And Detector Used In Same

View page
US Patent:
8165266, Apr 24, 2012

International Classification:
G01N 23/06
US Classification:
378 55, 378 988, 25037013
Abstract:
A scanning bone densitometer includes an x-ray source to produce x-rays and an x-ray detector receiving x-rays emitted from the x-ray source. The x-ray detector includes a cadmium tellurium (CdTe) semiconductor. The scanning bone densitometer also includes a controller moving the x-ray source and the x-ray detector along a transverse scanning path to acquire a plurality of scan images of an object of interest.
