A method and system for sharing intermediate medical image processing results among several different applications is disclosed. An application server serves as mediator between a medical image database storage, image processing applications, and a workstation display resident on a computer network. The application server polices the intermediate processing results from several different image processing applications in order for the image processing applications to share their intermediate results. By sharing the intermediate results, the application server helps to eliminate duplicate processing and inconsistent results between the image processing applications. The final image processing results are either stored on the medical image database or displayed on the workstation as needed. The image processing applications could reside on the application server or on their own separate networked computer. Alternatively, some image processing applications could reside on the application server and some on separate networked computers.

A method and apparatus for rapidly and accurately determining the fat and oil content of a sample using microwave drying and NMR analysis is disclosed. The method and apparatus incorporate a low mass, porous, hydrophilic and lipophilic sample pad that ensures that the entire sample is subjected to NMR analysis. The method and apparatus according to the invention are suitable for rapidly determining the fat and oil content of samples collected during a production process and for process or quality control.
摘要:
A process for recovering nickel and cobalt values from nickel- and cobalt-containing laterite ores as an enriched mixed nickel and cobalt sulphide intermediate and for producing nickel and cobalt metal from the nickel and cobalt sulphide intermediate. The laterite ore is leached as a slurry in a pressure acid leach containing an excess of aqueous sulphuric acid at high pressure and temperature, excess free acid in the leach slurry is partially neutralized to a range of 5 to 10 g/L residual free H2SO4 and washed to yield a nickel- and cobalt-containing product liquor, the product liquor is subjected to a reductant to reduce any Cr(VI) in solution to Cr(III), the reduced product liquor is neutralized to precipitate ferric iron and silicon at a pH of about 3.5 to 4.0, and the neutralized and reduced product liquor is contacted with hydrogen sulphide gas to precipitate nickel and cobalt sulphides. The precipitated nickel and cobalt sulphides can be leached in a water slurry in a pressure oxidation leach, the leach solution subjected to iron hydrolysis and precipitation, the iron-free solution contacted with zinc sulphide to precipitate copper, the iron- and copper-free solution subjected to zinc and cobalt extraction by solvent extraction to produce a nickel raffinate, the nickel raffinate contacted with hydrogen gas to produce nickel powder and the cobalt strip solution from the solvent extraction step contacted with hydrogen gas to produce cobalt powder.
摘要:
The present invention is directed to a method for indicating the integrity of a collection of digital objects, such as a software package, an email with attachments, etc.) The method comprising the steps of:Sealing the collection of digital objects by gathering the hash values of the digital objects into a binding file and digitally signing the binding file (the binding file may further comprise information about the relations between the objects); andIndicating the integrity of a sealed collection of digital objects by validating the integrity of its binding file via its digital signature; and validating the integrity of each object by the correspondence of its hash value with the corresponding hash value stored within the validated binding file.
摘要:
A method of producing a fine, low bulk density nickel powder, comprising a) charging particles of at least one reducible nickel salt within a furnace so as to form a moving bed of furnace charge, and b) reducing the furnace charge with a H2 containing gas at a temperature ranging from about 300° C. to about 500° C., the bed of furnace charge being moved gently so as to minimise formation of hard agglomerates and obtaining a fine, low bulk density nickel powder. A similar method, wherein the furnace charge is static and contained within a shallow bed.

摘要:
A vaccine against Newcastle Disease contains one or more mutant immunogens of the NDW strain. The mutant immunogen lacks the antigenic binding site on the F glycoprotein which is recognized by the monoclonal antibody mAb 54. Reagent kits and assay methods help to distinguish vaccinated members of a poultry flock from those that may have been infected with wild-type Newcastle Disease virus.
