摘要:
A method for rib suppression in a chest x-ray image detects and labels one or more ribs in a region of interest and detects rib edges of the one or more detected ribs. Cross rib profiles are generated along the detected ribs. The original x-ray image is conditioned according to at least one of the detected rib edge and cross rib profiles. The conditioned x-ray image can be stored, displayed, or transmitted.
摘要:
A method for enhancing a radiographic image. The method includes obtaining image data for the radiographic image, generating conditioned image data by increasing differences between neighboring portions of at least a relatively uniform area of the radiographic image, generating an enhanced image by applying contrast limited adaptive histogram equalization to the conditioned image data, applying interpolation to the enhanced image, and displaying, storing, or transmitting the enhanced image.
摘要:
A method for rendering a mammography image. Mammography image data is obtained and stored in a computer-readable electronic memory. A mapping transforms the data to an output data space by estimating a relative amount of dense tissue from the image data; identifying at least a first control point that delineates tissue from non-tissue image content and a second control point that delineates a fatty from a dense tissue region; allocating output image data values in the output data space for the identified fatty and dense tissue content according to the estimated relative amount of dense tissue; and mapping image data values to the allocated output image data values according to the first and second control points. The mammography image is rendered on a display according to the mapping.

A method for processing a digital volume image receives the volume image formed as a stack of image slices, each slice containing voxels and forms a 1:1 mapping of each of the slices, in order, to a corresponding tile in a digital flat volume. The method defines, for at least one voxel in a plurality of voxels in the digital flat volume, a neighborhood that includes the at least one voxel and adjacent voxels that are within the corresponding tile of the voxel, and adjacent voxels to the at least one voxel that are within the preceding tile in the digital flat volume, and adjacent voxels to the voxel that are within the next tile in the digital flat volume. The at least one voxel is rendered according to the adjacent voxels in its defined neighborhood. The volume image having the at least one rendered voxel is displayed.

Dynamic rate limiting adjustment may be provided by sampling actual output rates from a rate limited device and utilizing this information to modify configured traffic limits. This allows the device to achieve actual output rates much closer to the desired rate limits for users and services.

A system and method embodying the invention can be used to detect a characteristic or condition of a patient. A method embodying the invention may include the steps of illuminating a portion of a skin of the patient with light, detecting a frequency spectrum of light scattered from the skin, determining, from first and second portions of the spectrum, a first parameter indicative of a blood content of the skin and a second parameter indicative of a melanin content of the skin, determining, from a third portion of the spectrum, a third parameter indicative of an uncorrected bilirubin concentration, and calculating a corrected bilirubin concentration based on the first, second and third parameters.

It is provided a computer system, including: an operating terminal operated by a user; and at least one remote terminal controlled remotely by the operating terminal. The computer system holds a generation rule for generating a control command from operation information input by the user. The computer system obtains operation information generated by the user; generates a control command from the obtained operation information following the generation rule; and transmits the generated control command to the at least one remote terminal. The at least one remote terminal includes executes the received control command, and transmits a result of executing the received control command to the operating terminal. The operating terminal receives the execution result transmitted from the at least one remote terminal, and determines from the received execution result whether the execution of the control command is a success or a failure.

Aspects of a method and system for a multi-standard TV audio encoder are provided. In this regard, an integrated multistandard television audio encoder may be configured to encode television audio signals using a specified television audio standard. Moreover, once configured, the multistandard television audio encoder may encode television audio signals using the specified television audio standard. Exemplary television audio standards may comprise BTSC, A2, EIA-J, and NICAM. The multistandard television audio encoder may be enabled to generate all or portions of audio signals in accordance with one or more television audio standards. The multistandard television audio encoder may be enabled to generate baseband and/or RF modulated television audio signals. Accordingly, the multistandard television audio encoder may be enabled to generate an audio portion of a composite television signal. The multistandard television audio encoder may be programmably controlled via a processor and/or a control/programming interface.

Developing cartridge includes doctor blade in contact with developer carrying member. The doctor blade includes supporting plate having proximal end portion and distal end portion. Pressing portion is provided on the distal end portion to define contacting portion at which the doctor blade contacts surface of the developer carrying member. The pressing portion has end face extending in a direction away from the developer carrying member from the contacting portion and facing an upstream side in rotational direction of the developer carrying member. The proximal end portion is positioned downstream from the contacting portion in the rotational direction of the developer carrying member. Angle α between the end face and a plane tangent to the contacting portion, at a position in proximity to the developer carrying member, is not smaller than 90 degrees, as viewed in cross section orthogonal to axis of rotation of the developer carrying member.
