    Abstract: These are breast implant devices and methods of use. The breast implants are made of a matrix of collagen material having a porous structure for supporting surrounding tissue of a breast. The implants are also configured to provide a framework for the in-growth of fibrous tissue into the matrix. The matrix can be resilient and/or self-expanding. The methods of use include the steps of forming a cavity having surrounding breast tissue and forming a resorbable implant made up of collagen that is sized to occupy the cavity. The implant is then implanted into the cavity, thereby supporting the surrounding tissue and allowing for in-growth of fibrous tissue into and replacing the resorbable material. The resorbable material may also be elastically compressible, such that the step of implanting includes the step of compressing the resorbable material. The implants may also contain a medicinal, therapeutic, or diagnostic substance.

    Abstract: These are biopsy site marking devices. More particularly, the devices include a body of gelatin and an x-ray detectable body of a specific, predetermined non-biological configuration embedded in the body of gelatin. In one embodiment, the x-ray detectable body is made from metal. In alternative embodiments, the x-ray detectable body can be made from stainless steel or metal oxides.

    Abstract: Methods and apparatus are provided for treating end-stage renal disease, e.g., via a pulsed electric field, via a stimulation electric field, via localized drug delivery, via high frequency ultrasound, via thermal techniques, etc. Such neuromodulation may effectuate irreversible electroporation or electrofusion, necrosis and/or inducement of apoptosis, alteration of gene expression, action potential attenuation or blockade, changes in cytokine up-regulation and other conditions in target neural fibers. In some embodiments, neuromodulation is applied to neural fibers that contribute to renal function. In some embodiments, such neuromodulation is performed in a bilateral fashion. Bilateral renal neuromodulation may provide enhanced therapeutic effect in some patients as compared to renal neuromodulation performed unilaterally, i.e., as compared to renal neuromodulation performed on neural tissue innervating a single kidney.

    Abstract translation: 提供了用于通过脉冲电场经由刺激电场,经由局部药物递送,经由高频超声波,经由热技术等来治疗终末期肾脏疾病的方法和装置。这种神经调节可以实现不可逆的电穿孔或 电融合,坏死和/或诱导凋亡,基因表达改变,动作电位衰减或阻断,细胞因子上调和靶神经纤维中的其他条件的变化。 在一些实施方案中,神经调节被应用于有助于肾功能的神经纤维。 在一些实施方案中,这种神经调节以双向方式进行。 与单侧执行的肾神经调节相比,双侧肾神经调节可以在一些患者中提供增强的治疗效果,即与在支配单个肾脏的神经组织上进行的肾神经调节相比。
