    摘要: An imaging history display system and method is disclosed comprising diagnostic and patient summary interfaces for displaying, comparing and managing medical images. Imaging history display system displays studies in two interface modes in response to commands received from a user workstation. Display entities are displayed on display areas within display entity boxes that are defined by display entity layouts. Contextual summaries of display entities are provided in the patient summary interface to facilitate accurate and exhaustive diagnoses. Contextual summaries are generated in part based on pre-determined relevancy information. Display entities are easily organized in the patient summary interface. Display entities are easily activated in the diagnostic interface for diagnostic and comparison purposes.

    摘要: In a method of preparing a phosphor or scintillator layer to become deposited on a support, a vapour depositing step is applied from a crucible unit by heating as phosphor precursor raw materials present in said crucible, a Cs(X,X') matrix compound and an activator or dopant precursor compound, wherein said crucible unit comprises at least a bottom and surrounding side walls as a container for phosphor precursor raw materials present in said crucible in liquefied form after heating said crucible, and wherein said Cs(X,X') matrix compound has a higher vapour pressure than said activator or dopant precursor compound, said method comprising a step of providing said activator or dopant compound in form of a precursor raw material represented by the formula Cs x Eu y X' (x+αy) , wherein x, y and α are integers, wherein x/y is more than 0.25 and wherein α is at least 2, wherein X represents Br and wherein X' stands for F, Cl, Br, I or a combination thereof; followed by an annealing step after a vapour depositing step, provided that said annealing step proceeds in an ambient atmosphere after cooling said phosphor or scintillator layer, deposited on said support; and wherein as a result a binderless needle-shaped Cs(X,X'):Eu phosphor or scintillator layer becomes provided, having on top of its needle-shaped phosphors, aligned in parallel, an average ratio of divalent to trivalent europium dopant of more than 1:1; wherein said average ratio decreases to an extent of less than 2% per hour, while being exposed to X-rays having an energy in the range from 1 to 100 keV.

    摘要: At least one approximation image is created of the image at one or multiple scales. Translation difference images are created by pixel-wise subtracting the values of an approximation image at scale s and the values of a translated version of the approximation image. A non-linear modification is applied to the values of the translation difference image(s) and at least one enhanced center difference image at a specific scale is computed by combining the modified translation difference images at that scale or a smaller scale with weights w i,j . An enhanced image is computed by applying a reconstruction algorithm to the enhanced center difference images. The non-linear modification of the values of the translation difference images is steered by (a)characteristic(s) computed out of the approximation image(s) at at least one scale.
