X-ray catheter
TL;DR: In this article, a catheter for emitting radiation is described, comprising of a shaft and an x-ray unit attached to the distal end of the catheter shaft, which is used to irradiate the site of an angioplasty procedure to prevent restenosis.
Patent
Methods and devices to expand applications of intraoperative radiation probes
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a method for locating diseased or malfunctioning candidate cells within a human body and a method to using the device, which includes the labeling of target cells in a body with a radionuclide and the identification in situ of the candidate cells using a body insertable nuclear probe sensitive to the presence of the radiumide label.
Patent
Dual radiation targeting system
TL;DR: In this paper, a system, method and apparatus may be used in surgical applications for selective illumination and sighting to reach specific subsurface members of a patient's anatomy by guiding an incision.
Patent
X-ray device having a dilatation structure for delivering localized radiation to an interior of a body
TL;DR: In this paper, a balloon coupled to and circumferentially surrounding the vacuum housing, and a fluid loop for circulating a cooling fluid proximate to the vacuum, is described.
Patent
Apparatus and methods for detecting, localizing, and imaging of radiation in biological systems
Robert G. Carroll,Robin A. Wise +1 more
TL;DR: A collimating probe as discussed by the authors consists of a radiation detector and an adjustment mechanism for adjusting the solid angle through which radiation may pass to the detector, which can be used for diagnostic or therapeutic purposes.
