Abstract: An X-ray CT image (FIG. 6A) of a low spatial
resolution image is acquired by employing a PET-X-ray
CT examination apparatus "B." Also, a PET image (FIG.
6B) is acquired by employing the PET-X-ray CT
examination apparatus "B." Furthermore, an X-ray CT
image (FIG. 6C) of a high spatial resolution image is
acquired by employing another X-ray CT examination
apparatus "A." Then, the X-ray CT image (FIG. 6A)
equal to the low spatial resolution image is corrected
by employing the X-ray CT image (FIG. 6C), so that an
X-ray CT image (FIG. 6D) equal to a high spatial
resolution image is obtained. Since a positional
relationship of the resulting X-ray CT image (FIG. 6D)
with respect to the PET image (FIG. 6B) can be grasped,
this PET image (FIG. 6B) can be simply synthesized with
the X-ray CT image (FIG. 6D) like an image (FIG. 6E).

IPC: G06T7/20
Filed: 1992-09-11
Abstract: In a method and apparatus for analysing an electronic image signal, the signal is
treated as representing one or more cells each comprising a plurality of pixels. A
set of pointers is generated and sequentially set according to characteristic values
related to detailed image content. The pointers are used to address a memory array
and for successive frames, the value of an address in each array row indicated by
the pointer corresponding to that row is updated. In this way, for each frame the
characteristic values can be accumulated so that in a single operational mode, both a
time history of the image, stored in a memory, is updated and an indication is
produced indicative of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event not associated
with image background. The characteristic values can be generated by randomly or
pseudo-randomly selecting pairs of pixels and for each, generating a binary signal
depending on whether or not the intensity of incident light on a predetermined one
of the pair is greater than the intensity on the other. Over all the rows, the values in
the addresses being updated can be summed, as well as the maximum value in each
row. The ratio of the two sums can be time weighted averaged with respect to the
ratios obtained from previous frames. The ratio is compared with the average and
the result used to determine the occurrence or non-occurrence of a significant event
within the image.

Abstract: A Repetitive Layout scheme is provided that operates on a collection of data
objects, such that each data object accords to the same data object definition (data model)
expressed in a structured definition language. The Repetitive Layout consists of one UI
section repeated for every object in the collection. Each UI section is composed of a set of
UI controls or sub-layouts. The UI controls in each section are associated with the data
fields of the corresponding data object. A user of a wireless application interacting with
the data objects can select UI sections and edit the controls within them via the user
interface of the wireless device executing the application. Any modifications are
propagated to the data objects mapped to the respective UI sections. Similarly, all
modifications (driven by the application logic or incoming server messages) to the data
objects are reflected in the UI section mapped to these objects. The generation and
application of the repetitive layout scheme can include the steps: dynamic data entity
generation (Data Composer stage); determining the collection of data objects that need to
be presented by the user interface (Rules Engine stage); sorting the collection of data
objects (Sorting Processor stage); generating the UI Layout (Layout Generator stage);
propagating UI changes back to the Data Model having the definitions of the data objects
(Data Dispatcher stage); propagating data changes to the Repetitive Layout; and
propagating changes to nodes of the data model.
