2/6

Result Accordingly, in view of the Court s finding with respect to generally cylindrical self-expandingbody, that the filtering portion may provide some expansive force in conjunction with the anchoringportion such that the filtering portion may contribute to the total force necessary to anchor, noconstruction is necessary for said resilient material urges said cylindrical body to radially expand and to

thereby apply anchoring radial force.

Result - As explained above with respect to generally cylindrical self -expanding body, the filtering

portion may provide some self-expansive force which may contribute to the total force necessary toanchor the entire blood clot filter. Accordingly, in view of the Courts finding with respect to generally

cylindrical self-expanding body , no construction is necessary for radially expandable body.

Result - As explained above with respect to generally cylindrical self -expanding body, the filteringportion may provide some self-expansive force which may contribute to the total force necessary toan chor the entire blood clot filter. Accordingly, in view of the Courts finding with respect to generallycylindrical self- expanding body, no construction is necessary for axially aligned elongate strands which

cooperate to urge the anchoring portion into a generally cylindrical expanded configuration.

generally cylindrical expanded configuration, no construction is necessary for axially aligned elongate

strands which define wall portions of closed cells and which cooperate to form said cylindrical shape.

Result - Accordingly, in the absence of any function, and significant claimed structure, the Court findsthat this term is not subject to 35 U.S.C. 112(f), and no construction is necessary.
