Patent EP-0647844-A2 (EP)
Inventor: DOERRER RAINER HERMANN
IPC: G01N21/84
Filed: 1994-10-04
Abstract: An automated interactive cytology system provides expedited handling of samples, minimizing false negatives, while not substantially increasing the number false positives. A computerized system identifies and displays the cells which are of greatest interest to the cytologist. The system then processes this information on all cells identified to classify the slide as normal, abnormal, or questionable based on a statistical analysis of cells meeting given criteria. Before displaying the results of the statistical analysis, a cytologist reviews the cells which the computer has determined to be most significant. It is only then after the cytologist has determined whether the cells are positive, negative, or questionable, that the determination is inputted into the automated system. The automated system then compares the cytologist's analysis with its own statistical analysis. Based on the two opinions, the cytologist determines how to advise a doctor regarding the sample.

Abstract: A circuit to be used just prior to the printing engine to improve the image quality of a raster output scanner by modifying the darkness, size or shape of the spot. A buffer holds a window of n by n image pixels, and compares the bit pattern to a set of templates. For each match, a correction number is output, each correction number being a gray scale, duty cycle or bit pattern to be used to correct the center pixel of the current window. The comparison logic, instead of comparing the entire set of bits in the window to the templates, uses a number of small logic blocks in parallel, each comparing a subset of bits from the window. The output from this first set of comparisons is substantially reduced from the original set. This reduced set is now input to a second logic block which generates the final correction output bits. By using two stages, the first stage being a number of smaller logic blocks, the speed of the process is increased and the number of parts and the complexity of the circuit is reduced.

Abstract: An integrated electro-optical device comprises a pixellated liquid crystal modulation layer (6) superposed over an electronic detection layer (3). Modulator pads (12) for the liquid crystal layer (6) may be formed as electrically conductive combs to achieve optical polarisation. Where the liquid crystal layer provides selective absorption of unpolarised light, and separate polarisers between the liquid crystal and detection layers are therefore unnecessary, the device comprises such a liquid crystal layer (6) superimposed over the electronic detector layer (3). 
     Further, an integrated electro-optical device, optionally of the above type, has a plurality of pixels (A', B') of the liquid crystal layer for each pixel (AB) of the detector array. This allows optical shuttering of the detector pixels by electrically modulating the pixellated liquid crystal layer (6).

Abstract: A nuclear camera system, e.g. for medical diagnostic imaging, comprises a plurality of radiation detector heads (10a, 10b, 10c) mounted on a rotatable portion (16) of a gantry (18). A transmission radiation source and collimator assembly (40, 42) is mounted on the rotatable gantry portion opposite one of the detector heads. The radiation source (60) of the assembly is mounted in a lead shield (62) with an opening (64) pointing toward an examination region (12). A shutter (66) is rotatable between a closed position in which a lead arc segment (70) blocks the opening (64), a calibration orientation in which tin (72) covers opening (64), and an open position in which an opening (74) is aligned with the opening (64). A safety interlock means (80) locks the shutter in the closed position and against rotation when the radiation source and collimator assembly is removed from the rotatable gantry portion. The collimator (42) has lead side walls (200) and tin or tin alloy septa (202). When the radiation from the radiation source strikes the lead side walls, they emit characteristic lead x-rays of about 88 keV whereas the tin radiates x-rays of only about 30 keV. A filter (210) includes an inner layer (212) of tin for attenuating any remaining 88 keV lead x-rays coming from the transmission line source assembly and converting them to about 30 keV radiation. The filter has an outer layer (214) for attenuating the radiation around 30 keV.

Abstract: A test configuration is provided which allows a plurality of variable delay units within a delay chain of a microprocessor clock generator to be compared with respect to one another. During normal operation. a set of multiplexers interposed within the delay chain are configured such that the plurality of variable delay units are electrically coupled in series with respect to one another. An external command signal may be provided to the microprocessor to initiate a test operation in which the variable delay units are tested for possible defects. During the test operation, a control unit selects the multiplexers such that the four delay units are electrically separated from one another. A common test signal is then driven through two or more of the variable delay units simultaneously. and a compare circuit coupled to the output of each variable delay unit determines whether a transition in the common pulse signal propagated through each variable delay unit at essentially the same time. If no manufacturing defects are present, the four outputs of the variable delay units should be virtually indistinguishable from one another. The results of the compare operation may be driven on external pins of the microprocessor or may be processed internally within the microprocessor. Similar tests may be conducted throughout the entire operating range of the variable delay units.

Abstract: The present invention discloses an improvement to a wireless packet data communication system by permitting a subscriber using a mobile end system (M-ES) (205) to select the inter-exchange carrier (IXC) (222 or 224) which will carry the data over those network paths for which the subscriber bears the cost during a particular communication session. The present invention allows the subscriber to specify a preferred inter-exchange carrier in an optional preferred IXC field added to an end system hello message. During registration and authorization procedures, an identifier corresponding to the preferred inter-exchange carrier is transmitted between a serving mobile data intermediate system (MD-IS) (220) and a home MD-IS (240) in a preferred IXC field added to standard registration protocol messages. If the subscriber has specified a preferred inter-exchange carrier in the preferred IXC field, then this preferred inter-exchange carrier is given higher priority than a default preferred inter-exchange carrier selected when the user subscribes to the network services. Each MD-IS is provided with a new database (221,241) that maps inter-exchange carrier identifiers to a corresponding boundary router address associated with the preferred inter-exchange carrier in order to route data packets via the subscriber's preferred IXC. The present invention thus allows data to be sent over the subscriber's preferred inter-exchange carrier on paths in both the forward and reverse directions on a per session basis.
