    摘要: A method and system for correlating slice profiles associated with a series of magnetic resonance images taken at a plurality of positions. The method comprises first positioning a patient in a first position in the imaging volume of the magnet. A scout scan is then acquired. Selection is then made of an anatomical landmark in the scout scan, which will be referred to as an anatomical fiducial. A particular slice, typically one of a stack of slices to be acquired in a subsequent scan, is selected and precisely positioned at the location of the anatomical fiducial in the scout scan. Following completion of the scan, the patient may be repositioned, necessitating a new scout scan to set up parameters for a second scan.

    摘要: A MATTRESS HAVING A BASE CONSISTING OF A LAYER OF SOFT RESILIENT EXPANDED FOAM MATERIAL OVER WHICH IS ARRANGED A FURTHER LAYER OF A SIMILAR MATERIAL, FROM WHICH LAYER PORTIONS HAVE BEEN REMOVED OR ARE ABSENT TO PRODUCE A MATTRESS IN WHICH PARTS OF THE SURFACE ARE AT AN ELEVATION ABOVE THE LEVEL OF THE REMAINDER, THE ELEVATED PARTS BEING ARRANGED SO THAT THE MATTRESS SUPPORTS THE BODY OF THE USER WHEN EITHER IN THE DORSAL OR LATERAL POSITIONS IN AN ANATOMICALLY ADVANTAGEOUS MANNER. ABSENT PORTIONS OF THE OVERLYING LAYER MAY BE FILLED WITH MATERIAL OF GREATER SOFTNESS AND RESILIENCE THAN THE REMAINDER OF THE LAYER. PORTIONS REMOVED FROM THE ABSENT PORTIONS OF THE OVERLYING LAYER MAY BE ATTACHED TTO THE ELEVATED PARTS TO INCREASE THE DIFFERENCE IN ELEVATION BETWEEN THE DIFFERENT PARTS OF THE MATTRESS.

    摘要: A traction apparatus for the attachment thereto of traction elements capable of being fastened to parts of the body of a patient, the apparatus comprising a substantially rodlike member having two elastic and flexible elongated elements of considerable tensile strength, said elongated elements being interconnected with or without a tubular connector between them, the apparatus further comprising a manually adjustable tensioning device connected between the free ends of said elongated elements.
