Joint Space Quantification of Multiple Carpal Bones of Wrist-based on 3D Imaging
This technology is a software that is able to calculate the distance between joints among the carpal bones using 3D imaging, such as CT scan or MRI. Traditional joint space distance is calculated in a single joint for example the knee in 2D or 3D. The wrist has 8 carpal bones and forms many joints, and it is novel to quantify the joint space among these...

A Method of Treating Cardiomyopathy
This innovation is based on the finding that lack of Leiomodin-2 (Lmod2) is associated with cardiovascular issues, specifically enlarged heart or cardiomyopathy and it is better to have a truncated/mutated Lmod2 than zero or little Lmod2 present. A premature stop codon associated with Lmod2 causes truncation of Lmod2. This innovation is the use of antisense...
