11/678985
Inventors:
Daniel Eduardo Groszmann - Cambridge MA, US
Jonathan Schiff - Andover MA, US
Ella Zaslavsky - Marblehead MA, US
Assignee:
General Electric Company - Schenectady NY
International Classification:
G01D 18/00
US Classification:
2502521
Abstract:
Certain embodiments of the present invention provide systems and methods for electromagnetic calibration of an instrument. Certain embodiments provide an electromagnetic instrument calibration system including electromagnetic receiver electronics for receiving electromagnetic field information from an electromagnetic transmitter. The system also includes a calibration mount configured to position the electromagnetic receiver electronics stationary with respect to the calibration mount for calibrating an instrument having an electromagnetic transmitter using the calibration mount and the electromagnetic receiver electronics. Certain embodiments provide a method for calibration of an instrument based on electromagnetic field information including providing a calibration mount accommodating a plurality of instruments in a known position and orientation and having electromagnetic calibration electronics positioned with respect to the calibration mount; receiving electromagnetic field information for an instrument with respect to a known position of the calibration mount and electromagnetic calibration electronics; and calibrating at least a portion of the instrument.

Navigation And Visualization Of An Access Needle System

US Patent:
20060063998, Mar 23, 2006
Filed:
Sep 21, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/945699
Inventors:
Ron von Jako - Melrose MA, US
David Corbett - Lawrence MA, US
Lewis Levine - Weston MA, US
Ella Zaslavsky - Marblehead MA, US
International Classification:
A61B 5/05
US Classification:
600407000
Abstract:
A system for navigating and guiding a surgical instrument during a surgical procedure. A transmitter is positioned near a patient's anatomy. A receiver is attached to the surgical instrument. The position of the surgical instrument is tracked using the transmitter and receiver. A processing unit determines the location of the surgical instrument relative to the patient's anatomy and produces images with a pictorial representation of the surgical instrument and the patient's anatomy. The images are displayed on a display. A surgeon can view the images on the display and guide the surgical instrument into position inside the patient. The surgical instrument can be guided inside a patient without continuously producing real time x-ray exposures. Positions of the surgical instrument can be saved and displayed on the display along with the pictorial representation of the surgical instrument in its current position.

Ella Zaslavsky - Marblehead MA, US
Assignee:
GENERAL ELECTRIC COMPANY - Schenectady NY
International Classification:
A61B 19/00
US Classification:
606130
Abstract:
An instrument guide system for use with a surgical navigation system, the instrument guide system comprising a handle assembly, an instrument attachment assembly, a shaft connecting the handle assembly to the instrument attachment assembly, an electromagnetic sensor assembly removably mounted within an opening in the handle assembly, and an instrument removably attachable within a bore of the instrument attachment assembly.

Instrument For Harvesting Bone Grafts Having Substantially Cylindrical Bone Plugs

View page
US Patent:
57726647, Jun 30, 1998
Filed:
Feb 12, 1997
Appl. No.:
8/798108
Inventors:
Allen H. DeSatnick - Marblehead MA
Ella Zaslavsky - Marblehead MA
Herbert Marcus - Chelmsford MA
Assignee:
Wright Medical Technology, Inc. - Arlington TN
International Classification:
A61B 1756
US Classification:
606 80
Abstract:
An instrument and kit for harvesting a bone-patella tendon-bone (BTB) graft having substantially cylindrical bone plugs, and a method for harvesting a BTB graft. The instrument comprises two cylindrical shell portions extending along an axis from a drive end to a cutting end. One of the shell portions, which is positionable around a portion of the tendon, includes an axial slot which permits the graft portion of the tendon to extend therethrough. The shell portions interlock together in a hinged and mutually biased engagement to form a cylindrical tube around the graft portion, with a cutting edge that extends a full 360 degrees about the axis of rotation. Bone plugs obtained using the instrument are fully circular in cross-section for substantially their entire length.

Suture Anchor Assembly And Kit

View page
US Patent:
58999205, May 4, 1999
Filed:
Feb 11, 1997
Appl. No.:
8/799120
Inventors:
Allen H. DeSatnick - Marblehead MA
Ella Zaslavsky - Marblehead MA
Assignee:
Wright Medical Technology, Inc. - Arlington TN
International Classification:
A61B 1704
US Classification:
606232
Abstract:
A self-threading suture anchor assembly and kit includes a suture anchor having an anchor portion at one end and a drive portion with an eyelet at an opposite end, and an elongated suture threading loop with an elongated, substantially rigid gripping member attached thereto. The threading loop is collapsible, yet it maintains a loop shape. The elongated gripping member acts as a wand for manipulation of the loop. Both the threading loop and the elongated gripping member are adapted to be encased in a removable elongated sheath which extends beyond the ends of the loop and gripping member. The assembly is inserted into a cannulated shaft of a rotatable driver which includes a bone-cutting drive bit adapted for gripping the suture anchor at its drive end and for cutting into bone. The distal portion of the elongated sheath extends through a port in the shaft and is frictionally engageable with the shaft by means of an annular retaining element slidably disposed on the shaft. Removal of the driver from the anchor after installation of the anchor in a bone effects simultaneous removal of the elongated sheath from the threading loop and gripping member, which, when exposed, permit threading of a suture or section of tendon or other soft tissue through the eyelet of the suture anchor.

Apparatus For In Situ Measurement Of Stricture Length For Stent

View page
US Patent:
55780180, Nov 26, 1996
Filed:
May 24, 1995
Appl. No.:
8/448733
Inventors:
Christopher A. Rowland - Marlborough MA
M. Joshua Tolkoff - Brookline MA
Ella Zaslavsky - Marblehead MA
Assignee:
Boston Scientific Corporation - Natick MA
International Classification:
A61M 2500
US Classification:
604280
Abstract:
Apparatus for use in the diagnosis and treatment of strictures in a biliary duct, urinary tract or pancreatic tract. The apparatus includes a dual lumen catheter device. One lumen size is sized to accommodate a guidewire. A second, parallel lumen has a non-circular cross-section and carries a cytology brush at one end that couples through an operator to a manipulator at another end. The cytology brush has an effective diameter that is greater than the diameter of the catheter device. Brush cytology samples are obtained without removing the guidewire from a stricture and without introducing any relative motion between the guidewire and the catheter. As the cytology brush is retracted into the non-circular lumen, its bristles compact around the operator for storage within the lumen. A predetermined arrangement of markers at the distal end of the catheter facilitates the measurement of stricture length by direct endoscopic visualization.
