01/04/07 - 20070004958 - Probing method and holding method for lumenal organ
The present invention enables the desired area on a luminal organ to be held correctly during laparotomy or laparoscopic surgery, even without carrying out dot inking which requires a high degree of skill. In the present invention, a magnetic body is pre-anchored at a specific position inside a luminal organ. ...

11/30/06 - 20060270889 - Systems and methods for moving and/or restraining tissue in the oral cavity
Systems and related methods stabilize tissue in an airway using material which is sized and configured to be fitted to surface tissue in the airway and which is magnetically attracted toward a magnetized material to stabilize a preferred tissue orientation. The systems and related methods can be used, e.g., to ...

06/29/06 - 20060142632 - Systems and methods for removing plaque from a blood vessel
Systems and methods for removing accumulated plaque in a blood vessel of a patient. Ferrofluids are introduced locally via a catheter, a micro-catheter, or intravenously to the bloodstream of a patient. The ferrofluids are magnetically manipulated or moved throughout the blood vessels of the patient by an external magnetic field ...

06/29/06 - 20060142631 - Systems and methods for occluding a blood vessel
Systems and methods for occluding one or more blood vessels in a patient using variable viscosity fluids. The variable viscosity fluids are delivered in a liquefied state to the vasculature of the patient using a catheter or a micro-catheter. The blood vessels intended to be occluded may be any blood ...
