Abstract: The invention relates to an exhaust pipe assembly (10). There is a need for an exhaust pipe assembly (10) which transmits less noise to the environment. The exhaust pipe assembly (10) includes a hollow exhaust pipe (12), and a hollow shield (14) which surrounds at least a portion of the pipe (12). The shield (14) is supported from and separated from the pipe (12) by a plurality of elastomeric support elements (16, 30) which are interposed between the pipe (12) and the shield (14). Each support element (16) may include a larger body (18) positioned between the pipe (12) and the shield (14), and a smaller stem (20) which projects from the body (18) and extends into a bore (22) formed in the shield (14). Each support element (16) is preferably formed by injecting an elastomeric material through a corresponding one of the bores (22) to form the body (18) in the space between the pipe (12) and the shield (14). Alternatively, each elastomeric support element (30) may be an elongated body.

Abstract: In generating a virtual endoscopic image, an interior of a lumen is made viewable even when the viewpoint position is changed. A virtual endoscopic image generation means (12) generates a virtual endoscopic image by volume rendering based on three-dimensional data. An opacity curve setting means (13) sets an opacity curve which defines the relationship between pixel values of the three-dimensional data and opacity values. A viewpoint position setting means (14) sets a viewpoint position of a virtual endoscopic image. A movement amount determination means (15) determines a movement amount of the opacity curve with respect to an opacity curve at a reference viewpoint position. When a virtual endoscopic image is generated by the virtual endoscopic image generation means (12), the opacity curve setting means (13) sets an opacity curve obtained by moving the opacity curve by the determined movement amount in the virtual endoscopic image generation means (12).
