Abstract: It has been discovered that the incorporation of gases, especially fluorinated gases such as perfluorocarbons, into microparticles formed from the combination of a natural or synthetic polymer and lipid have significantly enhanced echogenicity as compared with microparticles not including the lipid. Compounds other than lipids which are hydrophobic and limit the penetration and/or uptake of water into the microparticles can also be incorporated into the microparticles to enhance echogenicity. In the preferred embodiment, the polymers are synthetic biodegradable polymers. The microparticles are manufactured with a diameter suitable for the targeted tissue to be imaged, for example, with a diameter of between 0.5 and 8 microns for intravascular administration, and a diameter of between 0.5 and 5 mm for oral administration for imaging of the gastrointestinal tract or other lumens. Preferred polymers are polyhydroxy acids such as polylactic acid-co-glycolic acid, most preferably conjugated to polyethylene glycol or other materials inhibiting uptake by the reticuloendothelial system (RES). The most preferred lipids are phospholipids, preferably dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC), distearoylphosphatidylcholine (DSPC), diarachidoylphosphatidylcholine (DAPC), dibehenoylphosphatidylcholine (DBPC), ditricosanoylphosphatidylcholine, dilignoceroylphatidylcholine (DLPC), incorporated at a ratio of between 0.01-30 (w lipid/w polymer), most preferably between 0.1-10 (w lipid/w polymer). Microparticles for imaging using other detectable agents can be similarly manufactured.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for thresholding gray-scale images containing text as foreground and dirt, colors, noise and the like as background. The method is adaptive in nature and can successfully separate a wide variety of text fonts and sizes, whether printed, typewritten, or handwritten, from the image background. The method uses multiple sets of thresholding process parameters in a contrast-based histogram evaluation to produce multiple candidate thresholded binary images. The method automatically selects the highest quality binary image, that is, the binary image that best represents text in the foreground, from among the multiple candidate binary images. The apparatus for implementing the method is a pipeline processor for highest speed.
