Abstract:
The tomographic image capturing device of the present invention comprises a display means (18) configured to: split light from a light source (11) into measurement light and reference light and cause the measurement light and the reference light to be incident to an object (E) and a reference object (49), respectively; capture tomographic images of the object (E) on the basis of interference light generated by superposition of the measurement light reflected from the object (E) and the reference light reflected from the reference object (49); and display tomographic pictures of the object generated on the basis of the captured tomographic images. The tomographic image capturing device has a first image capturing mode and a second image capturing mode. The first image capturing mode is a mode in which the measurement light is two-dimensionally scanned by raster scan to be incident to the object (E) and the tomographic images of the object (E) are captured. The second image capturing mode is a mode in which the measurement light is two-dimensionally scanned by raster scan to be incident to the object (E) and the tomographic images of the object (E) are captured. The raster scan in the second image capturing mode is thinned from the raster scan in the first image capturing mode. The display means (18) is configured to be switchable between a first display mode and a second display mode. The first display mode is a mode in which a plurality of tomographic pictures including a region of interest of the object (E) is selected from among the tomographic pictures generated on the basis of the tomographic images captured in the second image capturing mode and only the selected plurality of tomographic pictures is displayed. The second display mode is a mode in which all of the tomographic pictures generated on the basis of the tomographic images captured in the second image capturing mode are in turn displayed. The capturing of the tomographic images in the first image capturing mode is performed after separately performing a first adjustment operation and a second adjustment operation for adjustment of an image capturing condition necessary for capturing the tomographic images in the first image capturing mode. The first adjustment operation is based on the tomographic pictures displayed in the first display mode. The second adjustment operation is based on the tomographic pictures displayed in the second display mode.

An ankle joint bandage includes a main body part of woven fabric in band shape, an anchor part of woven fabric joined to one end of the main body part and having a loop face of a touch fastener, and an engaging part joined to the other end of the main body part and having a hook face of a touch fastener. The main body part has a winding part which winds around an ankle of a wearer, a first supporting part which extends from an instep to the ankle, and a second supporting part which extends from the ankle to the instep of the wearer to cross the first supporting part at an upper portion of the instep of the wearer, the anchor part fastens around part corresponding to a metatarsal bone of the wearer, and the engaging part detachably sticks to the loop face of the anchor part.
Abstract:
Image processing device (50) of the present invention comprises: an enhancement processing means (51) that enhances a speckle pattern in an ocular fundus tomographic image; a region-of-interest setting means (52) that sets a desired region in the ocular fundus tomographic image with the enhanced speckle pattern as a region-of-interest; a feature value extracting means (53) that extracts a feature value of the speckle pattern in the region-of-interest; and a disease determining means (54) that makes disease determination for an ocular fundus on the basis of the feature value. Image processing method of the present invention comprises: a step (S3) of enhancing a speckle pattern in an ocular fundus tomographic image; a step (S4) of setting a desired region in the ocular fundus tomographic image with the enhanced speckle pattern as a region-of-interest; a step (S5) of extracting a feature value of the speckle pattern in the region-of-interest; and a step (S6) of making disease determination for an ocular fundus on the basis of the feature value.
Abstract:
It is provided with an ophthalmic lens having a cross-sectional shape in an arbitrary meridian direction on a lens surface of the ophthalmic lens. The cross-sectional shape is expressed by the following formula (1), Z = cr 2 1 + [ 1 - c 2 r 2 ( k + 1 ) ] 1 / 2 + A ( θ ) r 2 + B ( θ ) r 4 (1) wherein c is a paraxial curvature of the ophthalmic lens, r is a distance from a lens center of the ophthalmic lens, k is a conic constant of a surface which is in rotation symmetry with respect to an optical axis of the lens in the ophthalmic lens, c, r and k are used in common in the meridian direction on the lens surface, and A(θ) and B(θ) are parameters expressed by functions depending on an angle in the meridian direction.
Abstract:
An average image producing means 52 produces an average image from all or some of a plurality of images captured at the same location. A noise extracting means 53 extracts a noise pixel on the basis of the result of a comparison between the pixel values of the pixels in the captured images and the pixel values of the pixels at the same position in the average image. An interpolating means 54 interpolates the pixel value of the noise pixel included in the captured images using the pixel values of other pixels to produce a noise-eliminated image.

Abstract:
With regard to the detection of a physiological active substance of biological origin and the measurement of its concentration in a sample, the invention provides a technique for moving gel particles that are produced in the sample without using a mechanical stirring member, and allows a highly accurate detection of the physiological active substance of biological origin and measurement of its concentration with a simple arrangement. By partial heating/cooling of a sample cell, thermal convection is generated within a mixture liquid in the sample cell, and as a result the gel particles that are produced in the mixture liquid are moved. In addition, based on the intensity of forward scattered light, the rate of change in the number of gel particles is measured.
