    Abstract: A system for extracting flow information from a dynamic volumetric angiography dataset is configured for segmenting (202) a vasculature structure by labeling certain voxels of the dynamic volumetric angiography dataset as belonging to the vasculature. For each of a plurality of the labeled voxels, (203) a voxel time value is calculated indicative of a time when a time sequence of a voxel of the dynamic volumetric angiography dataset satisfies a certain predetermined condition. A histogram is calculated (204) of the calculated voxel time values. The system determines (205) a time window having a lower voxel time value and an upper voxel time value, by fitting a model to the histogram, wherein the model defines the time window in terms of certain predetermined features of the histogram. The system associates (206) a first color to the lower voxel time value, and a second color to the upper voxel time value.

    Abstract: A nano-scale manipulator (10) comprises a mounting deck (11) and a frame (12), the deck (11) being moveably secured to the frame (12) by two flexural joints permitting movement of the deck relative to the frame in first and second respective, mutually orthogonal directions of movement. Manipulator (10) also includes at least one respective, elongate piezoelectric actuator (21, 22) for each of the flexural joints, each respective piezoelectric actuator (21, 22) being secured so as to interconnect the deck (11) and the frame (12) and being extensible and contractible in a direction that is parallel to one of the said directions of movement; and a source (23) of electrical power for causing operation of each piezoelectric actuator (21, 22). Each of the piezoelectric actuators (21, 22) also is free to flex in directions other than its direction of extension and contraction.

    Abstract: An electrothermal frequency-locked loop (EFLL) circuit is described. This EFLL circuit includes an oscillator in a feedback loop. A drive circuit in the EFLL circuit generates a first signal having a fundamental frequency, and an electrothermal filter (ETF) in the EFLL circuit provides a second signal based on the first signal. This second signal has the fundamental frequency and a phase (relative to the first signal) that corresponds to a temperature- dependent time constant of the ETF. Moreover, a sensing component in the EFLL circuit determines a parameter associated with a temperature of the ETF. For example, the parameter may be the temperature or may be other than the temperature, such as the fundamental frequency and/or the phase of the second signal. Furthermore, the EFLL circuit includes a compensation circuit that compensates for frequency changes associated with changes in the temperature based at least on the parameter so that the fundamental frequency is approximately independent of the temperature.
