Apparatus and methods are described, including a stent configured to be placed in a lumen. The stent includes a generally cylindrical stent body including a plurality of struts, at least one electrode post protruding from the stent body, and a plurality of antenna posts protruding longitudinally from an end of the stent body. The antenna posts are longitudinally separated from the electrode post. An antenna is disposed annularly on the antenna posts, such that the antenna posts separate the antenna from the end of the stent body, and at least one electrode is coupled to the stent by being placed on the electrode post. Additional embodiments are also described.

Antenna posts

Apparatus and methods are described, including a stent configured to be placed in a lumen. The stent includes a generally cylindrical stent body comprising a plurality of struts, and a plurality of antenna posts protruding longitudinally from an end of the stent body. Each of the antenna posts includes a proximal and distal portions, each of which is configured to be generally straight in the absence of any force being applied to the antenna post, and a compliant junction disposed between the proximal and distal portions, the proximal and distal portions being configured to flex with respect to one another about the compliant junction. An antenna is disposed annularly on the distal portions of the antenna posts, such that the antenna posts separate the antenna from the end of the stent body. Other applications are also described.

Posts with compliant junctions

An apparatus is provided for constructing a segmented annular permanent magnet from a predetermined number of previously magnetized segments of predetermined shape and size comprising a rotateable carrousel, at least two of a plurality of removable ferromagnetic segments, an introducing means and a removing means.

A surgical head support to be used for positioning and holding a patient's head during a surgical procedure in the head area. The head support includes an arcuate support having two arcuate arms, each of the arcuate arms having a free end and provided with head engaging elements for gripping the patient's head. The head support further includes a base member provided with concave semispherical recess matching a central portion of the arcuate support. The base member includes two bases adapted to slide one on top of the other perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the arcuate support. A connecting bolt connects the arcuate support and the base member so that two positions are possible: in the first position, relative motion between the arcuate support and the base member allows rearrangement of the arcuate support with respect to the base member while defining a hemispherical plane and relative motion between the bases is allowed; in the second position, the connecting bolt firmly secures the arcuate support to the base member.
