Abstract: A technique for selectively processing data from a digital detector includes determining an asymmetrical image area produced by orientation of a radiation source assembly. The assembly may include a radiation source and a collimator, which may be separately orientable. The image area is computed based upon the orientation of the radiation source assembly that projects a radiation beam towards an imaging plane. Image data from a detector within the imaging plane is selectively processed to improve computational efficiency. The system may also determine whether the image area falls within the imaging surface of the detector and inform an operator or inhibit an exposure if such is not the case.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for managing power consumption of a medical imaging detector by the use of triggering signals, environmental condition data, and/or determination of a variable time interval triggering event that is unique for each power consumption state. Systems and methods are provided for managing power and temperature of a device, after receiving a request for a function to be performed by the device determining an “on” trigger component, an “off” trigger component, associated circuits for performing the received function, providing power to the associated circuits upon the occurrence of the “on” trigger component, and removing power to the associated circuits upon the occurrence of the “off” trigger component. Further, an instruction is described for determining and displaying a variable time interval that is indicative of a time to change from one state to a desired state.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a digital X-ray detector is provided with a plurality of pixel regions. Each pixel region includes a first photodiode having a first area and a second photodiode having a second area equal to or smaller than the first area. The digital X-ray detector also includes a shielding structure that overlies the first and second photodiodes of each pixel region with the shielding structure shielding proportionally less of the first photodiode than of the second photodiode to provide the first photodiode with a first sensitivity and the second photodiode with a second sensitivity lower than the first sensitivity.

Abstract: A method, apparatus and computer program product are provided for constructing a diagnostic network model in a more efficient and timely manner and with improved consistency. A structured electronic representation of a document is automatically reviewed to identify the symptoms experienced by the complex system, the plurality of components of the complex system and the causal relationships between a failure of the respective components and the occurrence of the various symptoms. Respective probabilities can be associated with the causal relationships between the symptoms and the failure of the various components. A network model, such as a Bayesian network model, may then be automatically constructed to represent the symptoms, the components, the causal relationships between failure of the components and exhibition of the symptoms, and the probabilities of the respective causal relationships.

Abstract: An X-ray imaging method includes performing an X-ray exposure via an X-ray radiation source responsive to a source controller. The method also includes sampling X-ray image data via a digital detector without communication of timing signals from the source controller. The method further includes combining the sampled X-ray image data of at least one imaging frame or two or more imaging frames with at least one of the frames spanning a duration in which the exposure occurred, to produce X-ray image data capable of being reconstructed into a user-viewable image.

Abstract: Methods, apparatus and computer program products are provided in order to assess a translation following performance of the translation. The methods, apparatus and computer program products may determine input segments of a source language document that may prove to be problematic from a translatability standpoint, such as the input segments of the source language document that may have multiple output variants. As such, methods, apparatus and computer program products may provide feedback to the author or owner of the source language document that may influence the generation of subsequent source language documents so as to have improved translatability.
