A method of aligning a pair of images with a first image and a second image, wherein said images comprise a plurality of intensities corresponding to a domain of points in a D-dimensional space includes identifying feature points on both images using the same criteria, computing a feature vector for each feature point, measuring a feature dissimilarity for each pair of feature vectors, wherein a first feature vector of each pair is associated with a first feature point on the first image, and a second feature vector of each pair is associated with a second feature point on the second image. A correspondence mapping for each pair of feature points is determined using the feature dissimilarity associated with each feature point pair, and an image transformation is defined to align the second image with the first image using one or more pairs of feature points that are least dissimilar.

A method of aligning a pair of images with (101) a first image and a second image, wherein said images comprise a plurality of intensities corresponding to a domain of points in a D-dimensional space includes identifying (102) feature points on both images using the same criteria, computing (103) a feature vector for each feature point, measuring a feature dissimilarity (104) for each pair of feature vectors, wherein a first feature vector of each pair is associated with a first feature point on the first image, and a second feature vector of each pair is associated with a second feature point on the second image. A correspondence mapping (105) for each pair of feature points is determined using the feature dissimilarity associated with each feature point pair, and an image transformation (106) is defined to align (108) the second image with the first image using one or more pairs of feature points that are least dissimilar.

A mixing device, for a mixable material, has at least one cartridge and a closure piece. The cartridge contains a first component of the mixable material and has a cartridge head in which at least one air opening is arranged, and the closure piece is arranged on the cartridge head in such a way that the at least one air opening in the cartridge head can be closed and opened by the closure piece. The closure piece is mounted so as to be rotatable or slideable relative to the cartridge head, and a connection extends through the cartridge head or a cartridge wall into the interior of the cartridge and connects the interior of the cartridge to a container for a second component of the mixable material.

A vacuum cementing system has at least one cement powder cartridge and a container-opening system. The container-opening system has at least one container for at least one liquid and/or at least one powder, an opening device, and an outlet opening for applying a negative pressure. When a negative pressure is being applied, the opening device is mobile relative to at least a part of the at least one container. The vacuum cementing system has a means for connecting the cement powder cartridge to the at least one container and utilizes necessary vacuum for automatically opening the at least one container.
摘要:
A dispensing device for cartridges having a connection for supplying a pressurized gas, a base body, in which at least one passage and/or channel extends through which the pressurized gas can be guided to a first cartridge connector for connecting a cartridge. The first cartridge connector has a first opening towards the passage and/or the front channel such that a cartridge content can be expelled from the cartridge through application of the pressurized gas to a cartridge when the cartridge is arranged in the cartridge connector, wherein a second cartridge connector having a larger cross-section and a second opening is arranged at a front edge of the first cartridge connector The second cartridge connector is suitable for connecting a larger cartridge, and wherein the second opening of the second cartridge connector is sufficiently large to allow a cartridge to be connected to the first cartridge connector proceeding through the second opening.

A kit for producing bone cement includes at least one paste A and one paste B. Paste A contains at least one monomer (a1) for radical polymerization; at least one polymer (a2) insoluble in monomer (a1); at least one polymer (a3) soluble in monomer (a1); and at least one radical polymerization initiator (a4). The weight ratio of the at least one polymer (a2) to the at least one polymer (a3) is at least 2 to 1. Paste B contains at least one monomer (b1) for radical polymerization; at least one polymer (b2) and at least one accelerator (b3) soluble in monomer (b1); and optionally a polymer (b4) insoluble in monomer (b1). The maximum quantity of polymer (b4) is 5% by weight, relative to the total weight of paste B. The weight ratio of polymer (b4) to the at least one polymer (b2) is no more than 0.2.
摘要:
Cartridge systems for application of a material have at least one cartridge having cartridge walls, a cartridge head having at least one opening in the cartridge head, and a bracket arranged on the cartridge head. A valve is mounted in rotatable manner in the bracket and has at least one passage through the valve that is connected to an outlet opening of the valve. In a closed position, the valve closes the at least one opening of at least one cartridge in a sealed manner. The at least one passage of the valve is connected to the at least one opening when the valve is located in an open position such that the cartridge content is squeezable out of the at least one cartridge through the outlet opening, and further wherein the valve is configured to be transitioned from a closed position to an open position through a rotation of the valve about an axis of symmetry of the valve.

A cartridge system for mixing and applying a mixable material has a discharge opening and at least two cartridges which have interiors delimited in some areas by a cartridge head. A device regulates streams from the cartridges, is arranged on the cartridge head and has an outflow opening and conveying mechanisms for conveying the starting components to the outflow opening. Each conveying mechanism has a connection to an interior of a cartridge, which has a cartridge opening, and is arranged rotatably in the device. Volumetric flows of the components are defined by the angular velocities of the conveying mechanisms, and the conveying mechanisms are coupled to each other in such a way that the ratio of the angular velocities relative to each other is fixed, such that a defined mixing ratio can be generated at the outflow opening.

A discharge device discharges the content of a container by applying a compressed gas. The device has a housing, at least one compressed gas container, an operating device for setting a gas flow from the compressed gas container and an opening means for opening the compressed gas container. The opening means is movable in relation to the compressed gas container, and the device has a holder for securing the container on the device. The holder is in operative connection with the opening means in such a way that securing the container on the holder brings about a movement of the opening means in relation to the compressed gas container that opens the compressed gas container.
