    摘要: A method for determining an applicable path of movement of an object in human or animal tissue is based on intensity data obtained by a 3D imaging technique. The applicable path of movement connects a starling position of the object with a defined target location. The method includes defining the target location of a reference point of the object and choosing at least one possible starting position of the reference point of the object. Further, the method includes determining a candidate path of movement between the corresponding possible starling position and the defined target location. Next, the candidate path of movement is evaluated for being an applicable path. The candidate path is evaluated based on information about local intensity extrema and/or intensity variation resulting from the intensity data along the candidate path of movement.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a recording apparatus, record carrier and method of recording data on at least two layers of a recording medium by using a radiation power, wherein individual recording speeds are determined for respective ones of the at least two layers at different values of the radiation power. A recording speed to be used for recording on an individual one of the at least two recording layers is selected based on a maximum radiation power specified for the recording operation, and the speed of the recording operation is controlled individually for each of the at least two layers based on the selected recording speed. The determination of the individual recording speeds at different radiation power values may be written or embossed on the record carrier. Furthermore, a recording sequence used for recording on the recording layers can be set based on the sensitivities and thus recording speeds. Thereby, total recording time can be minimized for multi-layer recording media.
