Optical Probe Having And Methods For Difuse And Uniform Light Irradiation

View page
US Patent:
6487440, Nov 26, 2002
Filed:
Jan 19, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/766544
Inventors:
Curtis K. Deckert - Santa Ana CA
Roger L. Hildwein - Woodinville WA
Robert F. McConaghy - Kirkland WA
Julie R. Parnell - Bothell WA
Ann M. Thomas - Seattle WA
Robert L. Wilcox - Bothell WA
Assignee:
LifeSpex, Inc. - Bothell WA
International Classification:
A61B 107
US Classification:
600476
Abstract:
A variety of optical probes and methods have utility in the examination of various materials, especially materials in the interior of cavities having restricted access through orifices or passageways. One type of such optical probe is elongated and includes a distal optical window, a divergent light source, a spatial mixer, and a light collector. Light from the light source is mixed in the spatial mixer to achieve uniform diffuse light in the vicinity of the optical window. The light collector receives light from the target through the spatial mixer. The optical probe may be made of two sections, a reusable section and a disposable. The disposable is elongated and contains a mounting section, an inside surface suitable for the spatial mixing of light, and an optical element which helps to seal the reusable probe section from the target.

US Classification:
451 11, 451 5, 451460
Abstract:
A lens blocking device is disclosed that includes a frame, a light source mounted on the frame, a carriage having a first end and a second end mounted on the frame for sliding movement between first and second positions, a first mirror mounted on the carriage first end and a lens block holder mounted on the carriage second end and shiftable between third and fourth positions with respect to the carriage, a stage disposed between the light source and the carriage, and including an opening, for supporting an object, an at least partially translucent screen generating a display image operably connected to the support frame, at least one second mirror arranged to reflect an image of an object on the stage from the first mirror, when the carriage is in the first position, onto the screen, and an actuator operably connected to the carriage. The actuator shifts the carriage between the first position and the second position and shifts the block holder between the third position and the fourth position, and the display image on the screen is superimposed over an image of the object on the stage when the carriage is in the second position.

High-Speed Optical Recording And Playback Apparatus Capable Of Recording And Retrieving Digital Data From An Optical Storage Card

View page
US Patent:
54689449, Nov 21, 1995
Filed:
Jun 16, 1993
Appl. No.:
8/077095
Inventors:
Sydney Urshan - North Hollywood CA
Curtis K. Deckert - Santa Ana CA
Oscar Gonzales - Venice CA
International Classification:
G06K 700
US Classification:
235454
Abstract:
Apparatus consisting of a flat, two-dimensional array of laser/photo diodes; an optical storage card positioned below the array; and a mechanism to move the card in both the X- and Y-directions to position the laser/photo diode array over any one particular location on the card. A further mechanism serves to move the card in the X- and Y-directions and angularly to provide an initial alignment of the card with respect to the laser/photo diode array. Yet another mechanism moves the card in the Z-direction for focusing purposes. A laser/optical interface positioned between the laser/photo diode array and the card which is formed of an array of collimating and focusing holographic micro lenses (HOE) with surface diffraction patterns. An electronic section functions as an interface between a central processing unit (CPU) and the lasers and photo diodes of the array. The optical storage card is a thin, re-writable phase-change type.

Optical Probe Having And Methods For Uniform Light Irradiation And/Or Light Collection Over A Volume

US Patent:
63320924, Dec 18, 2001
Filed:
Jul 8, 1998
Appl. No.:
9/111174
Inventors:
Curtis K. Deckert - Santa Ana CA
Roger L. Hildwein - Woodinville WA
Robert L. Wilcox - Bothell WA
Assignee:
LifeSpex, Incorporated - Kirkland WA
International Classification:
A61B 107
US Classification:
600476
Abstract:
A variety of optical probes and optical methods have utility in the examination of various materials, especially materials in the interior of cavities having restricted access through orifices or passageways. An optical probe useful, for example, in examining the epithelia and other tissues of anatomical structures within the body cavities and tubular organs and viscera of mammals is elongated and includes an optical window (240, 302, 1002), a light source (222, 312, 314, 510, 520, 1020, 1200, 1400, 1700), a spatial mixer (224, 304, 2004, 2104, 2204, 2304), and a light collector (210, 320, 720, 1120). The light from the light source is mixed in the spatial mixer, thereby removing any reflected images and irradiation artifacts to achieving uniform diffuse light in the vicinity of the optical window. The light collector receives light from the target through the spatial mixer, but the field of view of the light collector excludes any residual reflections and fluorescence from the spatial mixer. The optical probe may be made of two sections, a reusable section and a disposable section.
