Inventor: TOMIOKA SATOSHI
IPC: H04N17/04
Filed: 2014-02-18
Abstract: An unevenness inspection system includes: an image pickup section configured to acquire a picked-up image of an inspection target; an image generation section configured to generate a color-unevenness inspection image and a luminance-unevenness inspection image, based on the picked-up image; a calculation section configured to use both of the color-unevenness inspection image and the luminance-unevenness inspection image to calculate an evaluation parameter; and an inspection section configured to use the calculated evaluation parameter to perform unevenness inspection. The image generation section performs image separation processing to separate a color component and a luminance component on the picked-up image, to generate a color-component image and a luminance-component image, and individually performs filter processing taking account of visual spatial frequency characteristics on the color-component image and the luminance-component image to respectively generate the color-unevenness inspection image and the luminance-unevenness inspection image, based on the filter-processed color-component image and the filter-processed luminance-component image. The calculation section calculates the evaluation parameter in consideration of unevenness visibility with respect to both of color and luminance.

Abstract: The present invention provides methods of amplifying a fragmented target nucleic acid containing short target nucleic acid fragments utilizing an assembler sequence to convert these short fragments into longer sequences enabling their identification and interrogation. This is particularly important when attempting to identify small genetic variations, such as SNVs, present in highly fragmented nucleic acid samples. Amplification is accomplished by hybridizing the short target nucleic acid sequences to the assembler sequence, where these short sequences serve as primers for extension. Since the fragmented target nucleic acids that contain SNVs are utilized as primers on the assembler sequence they are preserved during amplification and can be detected.

IPC: A61M5/148
Filed: 2014-03-13
Abstract: Embodiments of the invention provide infusion systems for the intravenous or other delivery of drugs and other therapeutic agents to a patient including a human or mammal. The therapeutic agents may be dissolved in solution or comprise the solution itself. Embodiments of the systems can utilize a chemical reaction to predictably drive a flow of drug(s) through a catheter or other flow path and into the patient. More specifically, the reaction may include an acid-base reaction or any other reaction that produces a gaseous substance. The gas is produced and contained in an expandable drive balloon when the acidbase reactants are combined with a liquid. As the gas is produced, the drive balloon expands to exert pressure on a separately-contained drug reservoir which, in turn, pushes drug(s) from the reservoir into the flow path where the drug is ultimately delivered to the patient in a controlled and predetermined manner.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for estimating perfusion indices (PI) in a mammal (200), e.g. a human. Data (DAT, DAT') representative of a contrast agent concentration as a function of time of an injected contrast agent is obtained from a medical imaging system (100). Perfusion indices(PI) are found by applying a parametric model (PM) for capillary transit time distributions as a function of time, and a minorize-maximization (MM) type procedure, such as an expectation-maximization (EM) type procedure, with regularization. The minorize-maximization type procedure has an exact analytical expression for the variance of an observation error of the contrast agent (Cε) in a non-linear observation model for the contrast agent concentration used in the maximization step. Clinical tests performed for 7 patients show improved MTT mapping as compared to singular value decomposition (SVD), and reduced sensitivity to delay.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for analysing a blend of two or more hydrocarbon feed streams such as crude oils. These crude oils are blended in a facility such as a refinery. The method assesses the compatibility of a hydrocarbon feed in a blend to calculate the blend stability such that organic deposition is minimised. The method uses all of a plurality of hydrocarbon feeds to be blended for analysis. The method either selects a neat hydrocarbon feed, from a plurality of the hydrocarbon feeds included in a blend, as a titrant, wherein the or each other hydrocarbon in the hydrocarbon feed are used to make a pseudo-blend and titrating the pseudo-blend with said selected neat hydrocarbon feed for a plurality of different blend ratios. Alternatively the method involves preparing a reference hydrocarbon and making a blend from the plurality of hydrocarbon feeds and titrating the blend with the reference hydrocarbon. Measurements associated with the change in characteristics of the titrated blend are made and data recorded. The method then calculates, using said data, the stability of the blend.
