摘要： Provides surface treatment devices, surface scanning devices, methods of operating a surface treatment device and methods of operating a surface scanning device. An area within a medium comprises at least one sharpening location for sharpening a tip of a probe mechanically. The tip is conically shaped with a radius of an apex smaller than 100 nm. In the case of the surface treatment device the probe is designed for altering the surface of the medium. In the case of the surface scanning device the probe is designed for scanning the medium. The sharpening location is suited for sharpening the tip mechanically. For that purpose the probe and the medium are being moved relative to each other such that the tip is located in the sharpening location. Then the probe and/or the medium are moved relative to each other such, that the tip is mechanically sharpened.

摘要： A cantilever device for scanning a surface comprises a support, a tip platform and a flexible arm arrangement. The tip platform has a plurality of tips. These comprise at least two contact tips providing points of contact with a surface to be scanned, and a scanning tip for scanning the surface, where the scanning tip may be one of the two or more contact tips provided on the platform. The flexible arm arrangement connects the tip platform to the support and allows orientation of the platform, via flexing of the arm arrangement, to bring the contact tips into contact with a surface to be scanned. The platform is then at a well-defined orientation relative to the scan surface, and the scanning tip is appropriately positioned for the scanning operation. Scanning probe microscopes and data storage devices incorporating such cantilever devices are also provided.

摘要： A method for co-registering images of tissue slices stained with different biomarkers displays a first digital image of a first tissue slice on a graphical user interface such that an area of the first image is enclosed by a frame. Then a portion of a second image of a second tissue slice is displayed such that the area of the first image enclosed by the frame is co-registered with the displayed portion of the second image. The displayed portion of the second image has the shape of the frame. The tissue slices are both z slices of a tissue sample taken at corresponding positions in the x and y dimensions. The displayed portion of the second image is shifted in the x and y dimensions to coincide with the area of the first image that is enclosed by the frame as the user shifts the first image under the frame.

摘要： A method of intuitively displaying values obtained from analyzing bio-medical images includes displaying a table of the values in a first pane of a graphical user interface. The table contains a user selectable row that includes a reference value and two numerical values. The reference value refers to an image of a tissue slice. The first numerical value is generated by performing image analysis on the image, and the second numerical value indicates a health state of the tissue. The image is displayed in a second pane of the graphical user interface in response to the user selecting the user selectable row. A graphical plot with a selectable symbol associated with the image is displayed in a third pane. The symbol has a position in the plot defined by the values. Alternatively, in response to the user selecting the selectable symbol, the image is displayed in the second pane.

摘要： A method for determining whether a test biomarker is a stain for a type of cell component, such as membrane or nucleus, involves performing various segmentation processes on an image of tissue stained with the test biomarker. One segmentation process searches for a first cell component type, and another segmentation process searches for a second cell component type by segmenting only stained pixels. The test biomarker is identified as a stain for each component type if the process identifies the component based only on stained pixels. Whether the test biomarker is a membrane stain or nucleus stain is displayed on a graphical user interface. In addition, the method identifies stained pixels corresponding to a second cell component using pixels determined to correspond to a first cell component. An expression profile for the test biomarker is then displayed that indicates the proportion of stained pixels in each type of cell component.

摘要： High-resolution digital images of adjacent slices of a tissue sample are acquired, and tiles are defined in the images. Values associated with image objects detected in each tile are calculated. The tiles in adjacent images are co-registered. A first hyperspectral image is generated using a first image, and a second hyperspectral image is generated using a second image. A first pixel of the first hyperspectral image has a first pixel value corresponding to a local value obtained using image analysis on a tile in the first image. A second pixel of the second hyperspectral image has a second pixel value corresponding to a local value calculated from a tile in the second image. A third hyperspectral image is generated by combining the first and second hyperspectral images. The third hyperspectral image is then displayed on a computer monitor using a false-color encoding generated using the first and second pixel values.

摘要： A method and an apparatus for signalling local traffic disturbances wherein a decentralised communication between vehicles is performed by exchanging their respective vehicle data. Through repeated evaluation of these individual vehicle data, each reference vehicle may determine a group of vehicles having relevance for itself from within a maximum group of vehicles and compare the group behavior of the relevant group with its own behavior. The results of this comparison are indicated in the reference vehicle, whereby a homogeneous flow of traffic may be generated, and the occurrence of accidents is reduced.
