A medical device containing a device for connecting the medical device to a substrate, for furnishing electrical impulses from the medical device to the substrate, for ceasing the furnishing of electrical impulses to the substrate, for receiving pulsed radio frequency fields, for transmitting and receiving optical signals, and for protecting the substrate and the medical device from currents induced by the pulsed radio frequency fields. The medical device contains a control circuit comprised of a parallel resonant frequency circuit.

MRI-compatible implantable device

A process for treating biological targets in a fluid of a biological organism, including introducing a fluid comprising a biological target to an assembly comprising an inlet connected to receive the fluid and an outlet connected to pass the fluid from the assembly, wherein the assembly comprises a flow chamber for conveying a flow of the fluid, and a capture zone comprising a target-specific binding agent, wherein during flow of the fluid through the flow chamber, the biological target undergoes flux rolling along the target-specific binding agent.

Process for in vivo treatment of specific biological targets in bodily fluids

An electromagnetic shield has a first patterned or apertured layer having non-conductive materials and conductive material and a second patterned or apertured layer having non-conductive materials and conductive material. The conductive material may be a metal, a carbon composite, or a polymer composite. The non-conductive materials in the first patterned or apertured layer may be randomly located or located in a predetermined segmented pattern such that the non-conductive materials in the first patterned or apertured layer are located in a predetermined segmented pattern with respect to locations of the non-conductive materials in the second patterned or apertured layer.

Device and method for preventing magnetic-resonance imaging induced damage

A medical device having electrically conductive properties includes an electrically conductive member. The electrically conductive member has an anti-antenna geometrical shape. The anti-antenna geometrical shaped electrically conductive member is shaped such that currents induced in the anti-antenna geometrical shaped electrically conductive member, by radio frequency fields, offset currents induced in the medical device by the radio frequency fields.

A process for identifying and treating cells in a living organism. The cells are labeled, circulated within the organism, detected with an implanted detector, and then either isolated or ablated.

Process for identifying cancerous and/or metastatic cells of a living organism

An electromagnetic immune tissue invasive system includes a primary device housing. The primary device housing having a control circuit therein. A shielding is formed around the primary device housing to shield the primary device housing and any circuits therein from electromagnetic interference. A lead system transmits and receives signals between the primary device housing. The lead system is either a fiber optic system or an electrically shielded electrical lead system.

A cell-scaffold composition that comprised of at least five layers of biocompatible material, each of which layers is coated with a biological sealant material and contains different cells The cell-scaffold composition is located in a bioreactor that contains devices for mechanically stimulating each of the cells in each of the layers at distinct frequencies.

Cell-scaffold composition containing five layers

A cardiac assist device containing a device for connecting the cardiac assist device to a heart, for furnishing electrical impulses from the cardiac assist device to the heart, for ceasing the furnishing of electrical impulses to the heart, for receiving pulsed radio frequency fields, for transmitting and receiving optical signals, and for protecting the heart and the cardiac assist device from currents induced by the pulsed radio frequency fields. The cardiac assist device contains a control circuit comprised of a parallel resonant frequency circuit.
