Computer Simulation Model For Determining Damage To The Human Central Nervous System
US Patent:
6980922, Dec 27, 2005
Filed:
Oct 9, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/682376
Inventors:
Fraser C. Henderson - Upper Marlboro MD, US
Kingsley Joel Berry - Flint MI, US
Kingsley Joel Berry - Flint MI, US
Assignee:
Computational Biodynamics, LLC - Virginia Beach VA
International Classification:
G01C017/00, G01B011/02, G06K009/00
US Classification:
702152, 702159, 382131, 382132
Abstract:
A computerized model simulates the human spinal cord and makes it possible to draw inferences about the probability of future injury or the likelihood that specific injuries occurred in the past. The spinal cord is modeled by a plurality of two-dimensional graphs formed of a large number of finite elements. The two-dimensional graphs are stacked in positions corresponding to the measured positions of the spinal cord at various vertebral levels of a patient. The stacked graphs yield a three-dimensional model, which may be compared with similar data taken from other patients. The model may include the simulation of stress, applied to all or part of the spinal cord, resulting in a perturbed three-dimensional model which may again be compared with similar data taken from patients having known injuries. The invention can therefore be used, among other things, to verify claims of spinal injury as a result of vehicular or sporting accidents.
Fusion Stabilization Chamber
US Patent:
6066175, May 23, 2000
Filed:
Jun 9, 1998
Appl. No.:
9/095418
Inventors:

International Classification:
A61F 244
US Classification:
623 1711
Abstract:
A fusion stabilization chamber stabilizes the spine following removal of one or more vertebrae, and facilitates bone growth. The chamber includes two hollow members, preferably having slightly trapezoidal cross-sections, which slide relative to each other in a telescoping manner. The hollow members preferably have walls made of a metal mesh. Barrel vaults attached to the hollow members form guides for screws which can attach the chamber to the vertebrae adjacent the corpectomy site. Because of its adjustability, the chamber can fit a wide variety of corpectomy sites. One can fill the chamber with bone material, which can eventually fuse to the adjacent bone. A pair of stabilizing plates prevents the surgeon from pushing the chamber too far towards the spinal cord. The chamber eliminates the need to maintain a large and costly inventory of screws, and neurosurgeons can learn to use it quickly and easily. In another embodiment, the device is formed in one non-telescoping piece.

John W. Newman - Newtown Square PA, US
International Classification:
A61B 17/88

606279, 600594
Abstract:
A therapeutic method for treating a neurological disease by evaluating and correcting an abnormal neuraxial angle that cause abnormal biomechanically induced neuraxial stress and strain.
Craniospinal Fusion Method And Apparatus
US Patent:
2008023, Sep 25, 2008
Filed:
Aug 1, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/832646
Inventors:
Fraser Cummins Henderson - Upper Marlboro MD, US
John W. Newman - Newtown Square PA, US
John W. Newman - Newtown Square PA, US
Assignee:
POLARIS BIOTECHNOLOGY, INC. - Newtown Square PA
International Classification:
A61B 17/70, A61B 17/56, A61B 17/58
US Classification:
606298, 606100, 606280
Abstract:
A method for effecting reduction, stabilization and enhancement of fusion of the human cranio-cervical junction, which may be performed in order to relieve mechanical stresses imparted to the spinal cord and brainstem as a result of an abnormal clivo-axial angle, includes steps of achieving the correct craniocervical relationship, of effecting a fusion of a first portion of a bone forming material based structural member to a human cranium, and effecting fusion of a second portion of the bone forming material based structural member to a least one portion of a human cervical spine. Fusion of the bone forming material based structural member to the human cranium may be promoted through the use of plate member that is shaped to define a graft accommodation space between the plate member and the cranium.

US Classification:
600594, 600587, 606279
Abstract:
A therapeutic method for treating a neurological disease by accessing a neuraxial deformity and abnormal neuraxial stress. The method involves calculating a neuraxial stress, determining whether the neurological disorder is attributed at least in part to the neuraxial stress; and treating the neurological disorder by normalizing the neuraxial stress.
