Toshiba America Medical Systems of Tustin, CA, and the Mayo Foundationfor Medical Education and Research of Rochester, MN, have settledlitigation relating to an MRI artifact-suppression patent grantedto Mayo in 1987. Mayo filed the suit against Toshiba last yearin U.S. District Court in Milwaukee (SCAN 2/14/96).
Both parties declined to disclose the terms of the settlement,although they did say that Mayo has licensed the patent to fourother companies besides Toshiba. The patent covers a techniquethat eliminates artifacts caused by flow, motion, and phase aliasingby using a series of saturation pulse sequences that are interleavedwith MRI pulse sequences.
Mayo is also involved in a dispute with Picker Internationalof Cleveland over the patent, according to Mayo attorney WayneBabler of Quarles & Brady in Milwaukee.
