Oncoustics Inc. currently manages 2 pending office actions within the Communications technology area. These 2 actions are being reviewed by 2 distinct examiners and are located in 2 distinct art units. This one-to-one ratio between actions, examiners, and art units indicates a diverse range of technical sub-specialties or varied filing strategies for a portfolio of this size.
The busiest examiner for the portfolio is LU, ZHIYU, who is responsible for 1 pending office action. Since each of the 2 pending actions is assigned to a different examiner, no single individual dominates the current prosecution landscape. This lack of concentration means that practitioners cannot rely on a single examiner's history to predict outcomes across the portfolio. Each application represents a unique interaction with a different part of the patent office's administrative structure.
Operating across 2 distinct art units within the Communications field suggests that Oncoustics Inc. is pursuing protection for different technical aspects of its technology. The administrative complexity is higher than a centralized portfolio, as each of the 2 pending matters requires engagement with a different examiner and a different art unit. Success in this environment depends on managing two unique prosecution tracks simultaneously while addressing the specific technical requirements of each distinct art unit.
Difficulty is derived from the rejection statutes on the most recent pending office action. §101-driven and multi-statute cases are graded Hard; §112-only and obviousness-type double-patenting cases are graded Easy; everything else is Medium. "Unknown" means we have not yet parsed a statute for that office action.

| §103 only | 1 (50%) |
