US Patent:

20010009999, Jul 26, 2001

Filed:

Mar 9, 2001

Appl. No.:

09/803543

Inventors:

Jonathan Kaufman - Brooklyn NY, US
Allessandro Chiabrera - Genoa, IT
David Strom - Castle Rock CO, US

Assignee:

Alessandro Chiabrera

International Classification:

A61B018/04

US Classification:

606/032000

Abstract:

Non-invasive therapeutic treatment of plantar fasciitis in vivo using ultrasound is performed by subjecting a foot locale to an ultrasound signal supplied to an ultrasound transducer placed on the skin, and involving a repetitive finite duration signal consisting of plural frequencies that are in the ultrasonic range to 10 MHz. The ultrasound transducer is reproducibly positioned using an ultrasound fixture. The ultrasound signal is applied daily at least twice per day for 40 minutes per treatment, and has a power intensity (SATA) of 18 mW/cm. In an alternative embodiment, an orthotic device holds the foot in dorsiflexion concomitant with ultrasound treatment.

Appl. No.:

8/942824

Inventors:

David L. Strom - Aurora CO

International Classification:

H01Q 132

US Classification:

343787

Abstract:

A method to transmit and receive electromagnetic waves which comprises generating opposing magnetic fields having a plane of maximum force running perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the magnetic field; generating a heat source along an axis parallel to the longitudinal axis of the magnetic field; generating an accelerator parallel to and in close proximity to the heat source, thereby creating an input and output port; and generating a communications signal into the input and output port, thereby sending the signal at a speed faster than light.
