System And Method Providing Directional Ultrasound Therapy To Skeletal Joints

View page
US Patent:
20030216721, Nov 20, 2003
Filed:
Jan 15, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/347164
Inventors:
Chris Diederich - Novato CA, US
Jeffrey Lotz - San Mateo CA, US
Will Nau - San Francisco CA, US
David Bradford - Sausalito CA, US
Elizabeth Wistrom - Healdsburg CA, US
Elisa Bass - San Francisco CA, US
Assignee:
THE REGENTS OF THE UNIVERSITY OF CALFORNIA
International Classification:
A61B018/04
A61F007/00
A61F007/12
US Classification:
606/028000, 607/096000
Abstract:
An ultrasound therapy system and method is provided that provides directional, focused ultrasound to localized regions of tissue within body joints, such as spinal joints. An ultrasound emitter or transducer is delivered to a location within the body associated with the joint and heats the target region of tissue associated with the joint from the location. Such locations for ultrasound transducer placement may include for example in or around the intervertebral discs, or the bony structures such as vertebral bodies or posterior vertebral elements such as facet joints. Various modes of operation provide for selective, controlled heating at different temperature ranges to provide different intended results in the target tissue, which ranges are significantly effected by pre-stressed tissues such as in-vivo intervertebral discs. In particular, treatments above 70 degrees C., and in particular 75 degrees C., are used for structural remodeling, whereas lower temperatures achieves other responses without appreciable remodeling.

Prosthetic Intervertebral Discs

US Patent:
20070050032, Mar 1, 2007
Filed:
Sep 1, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/218707
Inventors:
Darin Gittings - Sunnyvale CA, US
Michael Reo - Redwood City CA, US
Janine Robinson - Half Moon Bay CA, US
John Ashley - San Francisco CA, US
Nicholas Koske - San Jose CA, US
Roxanne Richman - San Jose CA, US
Elizabeth Wistrom - Palo Alto CA, US
Uriel Chee - Santa Cruz CA, US
International Classification:
A61F 2/44
US Classification:
623017120, 623017130
Abstract:
Prosthetic intervertebral discs, systems including such prosthetic intervertebral discs, and methods for using the same are described. The subject prosthetic discs include upper and lower endplates separated by a compressible core member. The subject prosthetic discs exhibit stiffness in the vertical direction, torsional stiffness, bending stiffness in the saggital plane, and bending stiffness in the front plane, where the degree of these features can be controlled independently by adjusting the components, construction, and other features of the discs.

Prosthetic Intervertebral Discs Implantable By Minimally Invasive Surgical Techniques

View page
US Patent:
20070270952, Nov 22, 2007
Filed:
Apr 19, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/379340
Inventors:
Elizabeth Wistrom - Palo Alto CA, US
Darin Gittings - Sunnyvale CA, US
Jeffrey Dolin - Belmont CA, US
Michael Reo - Redwood City CA, US
International Classification:
A61F 2/44
US Classification:
623017110
Abstract:
Prosthetic intervertebral discs and methods for using the same are described. The subject prosthetic discs include upper and lower endplates separated by a compressible core member. The subject prosthetic discs exhibit stiffness in the vertical direction, torsional stiffness, bending stiffness in the saggital plane, and bending stiffness in the front plane, where the degree of these features can be controlled independently by adjusting the components of the discs. The subject prosthetic discs have shapes, sizes, and other features that make them particularly suitable for deployment using minimally invasive surgical procedures.

Thomas A. Afzal - Menlo Park CA, US
International Classification:
A61F 2/44
US Classification:
623 1715, 623 1716
Abstract:
This description deals with a medical device, specifically a prosthetic intervertebral disc having a compressible core bounded by a fiber-containing or fiber-reinforced membrane.

View page
US Patent:
20080183209, Jul 31, 2008
Filed:
Jan 8, 2008
Appl. No.:
11/970528
Inventors:
Janine C. Robinson - Half Moon Bay CA, US
Nicholas C. Koske - San Jose CA, US
Darin C. Gittings - Sunnyvale CA, US
Michael L. Reo - Redwood City CA, US
Elizabeth V. Wistrom - Palo Alto CA, US
Thomas A. Afzal - Menlo Park CA, US
Assignee:
Spinal Kinetics, Inc. - Sunnyvale CA
International Classification:
A61B 17/58
A61B 17/08
US Classification:
606246, 606151, 606247
Abstract:
Spinal stabilization devices, systems, and methods are described. Foramenal spacers including a rigid member adapted to maintain the integrity of the foramenal space. Facet joint stabilizing members and prosthetic facet joints that augment or replace the native facet joint are also described. Lateral spinal stabilization systems that may be attached to the lateral surfaces of adjacent vertebral bodies are described. Also described are anterior spinal stabilization systems that are to be attached to the anterior surfaces of adjacent vertebral bodies. Several variations of dynamic spinal stabilization devices and systems are described. Each of the foregoing devices, systems, and methods may be used independently, in combination with the other devices, systems, and methods described herein, and/or in combination with prosthetic intervertebral discs.
