Abstract: A push-pull driver circuit operative with two input logic signals of opposite sense has a first bipolar transistor (74) with a base terminal connected to a first input signal, and an emitter terminal connected to a second bipolar transistor (76) which takes the place of the emitter resistor in the usual construction of an emitter follower circuit. During an activation of the first transistor (74) to pass current, this being the pull-up stage, the second transistor (76) is in a quiescent state to develop a voltage drop provided by current flow from the first transistor (74). A current mirror (84,86,78,88) maintains a small quiescent current in the second transistor (76) so that it can be activated rapidly upon occurrence of the pull-down transition. During a deactivation of the first transistor (74) to terminate current flow in the first transistor (74), the voltage drop across the second transistor (76) decreases, this being the pull-down stage. The voltage drop across the second transistor (76) serves as an output signal of the driver circuit. During the pull down stage, the second transistor (76) is activated momentarily via the capacitance of a back-biased transistor (78) to pass current for rapid reduction of the voltage drop across the second transistor (76), this being in response to the second input signal. To avoid placing the second transistor (76) in a state of saturation, a bypass transistor (80) is connected across the base-collector terminal of the second transistor (76) in the reverse direction of current flow in the second transistor to prevent the development of excessive base drive to the second transistor (76).

Abstract: For extracting, from a source image, irregular relatively distinct features from an irregular relatively less distinct object which occupies a part of the source image, a number of image processing steps are performed in which: the edge outline of the object is extracted from the source image to produce an object outline image; the object outline is traced and predetermined data points on the object outline are located; particular regions of the object are identified within the source image using the identified data points; and the relatively distinct features are extracted from the identified regions. The invention finds particular application for the assessment of skeletal maturity ('bone age') wherein the source image is, or is derived from a digital or digitised radiograph of a subject's hand and wrist, with the object being the hand and wrist and the feature being the bones within the hand and/or wrist. In this case, classification of bone outlines extracted from the image are compared to and classified with respect to reference sample bones to compute an assessment of skeletal maturity.
