Abstract: In a diagnostic imaging system (10), a user interface (82) facilitates viewing of 4D kinematic data sets. A set of reference points is selected in a first 3D image to designate an anatomical component. An algorithm (104) calculates a propagation of the selected reference points from the first 3D image into other 3D images. Transforms which describe the propagation of the reference points between 3D images are defined. An aligning algorithm (112) applies inverse of the transforms to the 3D images to define a series of frames for the video processor (120) to display, in which frames the designated anatomical component defined by the reference points in each of the 3D images remains fixed while the other portions of the anatomical region of interest move relative to the fixed designated anatomical component.

Abstract: A method for forming a fastener product includes folding a sheet material about a longitudinal fold line to form a longitudinal edge portion overlapping only an adjacent portion of the sheet material, leaving another portion of the sheet material exposed as a remainder portion. The folded sheet material is continuously introduced to a gap adjacent to a surface of a rotating mold roll. Moldable resin is introduced between the sheet material and the mold roll to fill fixed cavities in the rotating mold roll to form portions of the fastener elements as stems bonded to one of the overlapping edge portion and the remainder portion. Additional material is bonded to the other of the overlapping edge portion and the remainder portion with the bonding occurring in the gap. The resin is solidified, then, stripped from the surface of the mold roll by pulling the stems from their respective cavities.
