A dispensing container according to the invention includes a container body having a rod-like shape, The dispensing container is therefore compact and the user can hold the dispensing container as if the user holds a pen and use the thumb, the index finger, and any other finger to apply pressure to the dispensing container so as to dispense a drug solution. A heat insulating grip is attached to the outer circumferential surface of the container body, whereby heat originating from the body temperature of a finger of the user will not be transferred to the drug solution or volatilize it. No excessive dispensing that is not intended by the user will therefore occur. Since the container body is thin and hence unlikely crashed, the user can make adjustment of the pressure applied by the thumb, the index finger, and any other finger to readily extract a single droplet.

A radiological imaging apparatus of the present invention comprises an image pickup device and a medical examinee holding device that is provided with a bed. The image pickup device includes a large number of radiation detectors and radiation detector support plates. A large number of radiation detectors are mounted around the circumference of a through-hole and arranged in the axial direction of the through-hole. The radiation detectors are arranged in three layers formed radially with respect to the center of the through-hole and mounted on the lateral surfaces of the radiation detector support plates. Since the radiation detectors are not only arranged in the axial direction and circumferential direction of the through-hole but also arrayed in the radial direction, it is possible to obtain accurate information about a γ-ray arrival position in the radial direction of the through-hole (the positional information about a radiation detector from which a γ-ray image pickup signal is output). The use of accurate information about γ-ray arrival increases the tomogram accuracy. As a result, the present invention enhances the, tomogram accuracy, that is, the PET examination accuracy.

Detecting with good precision an eye inside corner position and an eye outside corner position as face feature points even when the eye inside corner and/or the eye outside corner portions are obscured by noise. First eyelid profile modeling is performed with a Bezier curve expressed by a fixed control point P3 indicating an eye inside corner first position detected in an image, a fixed control point P4 indicating an eye outside corner first position, a control point P1 corresponding to an upper eyelid position candidate (first parameter), and a control point P2 corresponding to a lower eyelid position candidate (second parameter). Then in a second eyelid profile model with fixed P1 and P2 of the first eyelid profile model having the highest fitting evaluation value λ to the eyelid profile in the image, the values of a control point P3 indicating an eye inside corner position candidate (third parameter) and a control point P4 indicating an eye outside corner candidate (fourth parameter) at a maximum of a fitting evaluation value λ when changing the values of the control point P3 and control point P4 are determined as an eye inside corner second position and an eye outside corner second position, respectively.

A synchronous-rectification-type switching regulator is disclosed that includes a first switching element; an inductor charged with a voltage input to an input terminal of the switching regulator by the switching of the first switching element; a second switching element for synchronous rectification performing switching so as to discharge the inductor; a control circuit part controlling the switching of the first switching element so that an output voltage from an output terminal of the switching regulator is a predetermined constant voltage, and to cause the second switching element to perform the switching inversely to the first switching element; and a reverse current prevention circuit part interrupting a current that flows into the second switching element by cutting off the connection of the second switching element so as to prevent generation of a reverse current that flows in the direction of the second switching element from the output terminal.

A radiological imaging apparatus of the present invention includes an X-ray source for emitting an X-ray, a γ-ray detecting section for outputting a detection signal of a γ-ray, and an X-ray detecting section for outputting a detecting signal of an X-ray. The X-ray source moves around a bed for placing an examinee. The γ-ray detecting section has a plurality of radiation detectors aligned in the longitudinal direction of the bed and placed around the bed. The X-ray detecting section is positioned in a region formed between one end and the other end of the γ-ray detecting section in the longitudinal direction of the bed. The X-ray source is also positioned in the region. Since the X-ray detecting section is placed in the region, it is possible to accurately combine a PET image and an X-ray computed tomographic image.
