    摘要: A method for synchronizing list-mode data of single events in a PET imaging includes: acquiring list-mode data of single events of each independent detector module, calculating a probability density of time intervals between occurrences of single events in detector module and setting initial parameters, determining detection starting time difference of each detector module with iterative peak searching and graded time window, and performing synchronization correction and coincidence discrimination on the single event data in each detector module based on the detection starting time difference. A system for synchronizing list-mode data of single events in a PET imaging includes: a data acquisition and frequency difference compensation module, an initial parameter setting module, a coarse time scale coincidence module, a fine time scale coincidence module and a data synchronization correction and coincidence discrimination module.

    摘要: Ultrasound radiation using a single tone burst pulse is applied to a selected location in a tissue region. The induced shear wave is detected in the region and its spectral distribution is calculated and analyzed. This detection may be repeated with other excitation pulses having different widths or different shapes at the same location. The spectral analysis of the detected shear wave is performed according to a nonlinear shear model for solving nonlinearity and viscoelasticity of the tissue at a single location. The detection location can be at one point at a time for imaging two-dimensional or three-dimensional tissue nonlinearities and shear wave properties including nonlinear magnitude variations, nonlinear phase variations, nonlinear coefficients, and viscoelasticity. The induced shear wave are detected at multiple locations along the shear propagation directions for calculating different shear group velocities and different shear phase velocities using different excitation pulses, and calculating nonlinearity and viscoelasticity.

    摘要: A system and methods are provided for removal of undesired portions of a fruit or vegetable, such as removal of calyxes from strawberries before they are flash frozen. An automated process for high-throughput fruit or vegetable calyx removal includes a loading system, an identification system, and a removal system. The loading system is configured to transport the fruit or vegetable through the automated process. The loading system may also orient the fruits or vegetables along an axis of the fruit and or align the fruit or vegetables in a desired pattern, orientation, and/or arrangement. The identification system is configured to locate the calyx and determines calyx position data and an optimal cutting path for individual fruit. The removal system uses data received from the identification system to separate the calyx from the fruit or vegetable.

    摘要: A filtering powdered medicament inhaler comprising a base (1) and an upper base (2). The upper base (2) has arranged therein a separator (62), which is connected at the bottom to a pressure groove (63). The upper base (2) has arranged thereon a hollow tube exterior connector (10) matching a suction tube (131). The hollow tube (19a) and a cavity (9) on one side of the separator (62) are interconnected via conduit (18), or, the hollow tube (19a) is extended for about 8 centimeters to form a mouthpiece. The upper base (2) has arranged in the cavity (9) thereof a filter (121). The base (1) is provided with an external base cover (72) which covers a press-button (5a) so as to reduce air flow into the cavity (9). The medicament inhaling conduit of the inhaler is relatively sealed and allows for rapid entrainment of a sufficient dosage of powdered medicament.

    摘要: Self-regulating pressure source. The pressure source includes a chamber enclosing a chemical monopropellant. A moveable boss is attached to a deformable membrane sealing an air chamber, the moveable boss and air chamber being disposed within the chamber. A catalyst is disposed around the membrane so as to be covered by the boss in a retracted position so that the monopropellant is broken down by the catalyst to produce a gas. The gas pressure will increase within the chamber causing air in the air chamber to compress thereby to pull the boss into the retracted position to cover the catalyst thereby to regulate the pressure within the chamber. The self-regulating pressure source is particularly suited to power fluidic elastomeric actuators.
