Latest Patents
One of Robert's latest patents is titled "Method and system for in vivo hydrogen peroxide detection with ultrasound." This invention provides a method for detecting localized hydrogen peroxide within tissue by introducing a catalase-containing material at the location of interest. An ultrasound transducer is then positioned over this area to generate an ultrasound image that detects microbubbles, indicating the presence of localized hydrogen peroxide. The catalase-coated surface can be part of a microtube, a nanosphere, or an implantable device.
Another significant patent is "Diagnostic imaging of lymph structures." This invention outlines methods for identifying the sentinel lymph node in a drainage field for a tissue or organ in a subject. It allows for the identification of the first or sentinel lymph node that drains the tissue, particularly in cases associated with neoplastic or infectious diseases. The invention facilitates pre-operative or intraoperative mapping of the affected lymphatic structure using a contrast agent, enabling surgical or minimally invasive procedures for pathological analysis.
