Abstract
An electrical read head having high sensitivity and resolution power and a method of operating the same are provided. The electrical read head includes a core portion for recording/reading data on/from a recording medium and an electrode pad connecting the core portion to a power supply. A surface of the core portion facing the recording medium is a plane surface and side surfaces of the core portion are perpendicular to the plane surface.

1-20. (canceled)
A ligating band dispensing device comprising:
- (a) a supporting structure comprising a substantially cylindrical support surface adapted to receive a plurality of ligating bands and a trigger line on an outer surface thereof, wherein the support surface has a proximal end and a distal end and a channel extending axially therethrough from the distal end to the proximal end, wherein the support surface includes at least one primary ridge maintaining the plurality of ligating bands in a position remote from the trigger line, and wherein the at least one primary ridge includes a plurality of transverse ridges on an outer face;
- and
- (b) a plurality of ligating bands stretched onto the support surface;
- wherein the ligating bands and the transverse ridges on the support surface are dimensioned to induce a rolling action, the width of the bands when stretched on the support surface being substantially the same as or less than the pitch of the transverse ridges on the support surface.

A method of deploying ligating bands comprising:
- providing a supporting structure comprising a substantially cylindrical support surface adapted to receive a plurality of ligating bands and a trigger line on an outer surface thereof, the support surface having a proximal end and a distal end and a channel extending axially therethrough from the distal end to the proximal end, the support surface including at least one axially extending primary ridge disposed on the outer surface, said at least one primary ridge maintaining the plurality of ligating bands in a position remote from the trigger line, wherein said at least one primary ridge includes a plurality of transverse ridges on an outer face;
- providing a plurality of ligating bands stretched onto the support surface, wherein the ligating bands and the transverse ridges on the support surface are dimensioned such that the width of the bands when stretched on the support surface is substantially the same as or less than the pitch of the transverse ridges on the support surface so that the ligating bands fit between the transverse ridges;
- and
- actuating the trigger line so as to induce a rolling action in said ligating bands toward the distal end of the supporting structure.
