Abstract: There is provided an apparatus for forming a magnetic pigment pattern on an article. The apparatus includes: a magnetic pattern mold having nonmagnetic pattern grooves engraved in a predetermined pattern and providing predetermined magnetic field lines on a pattern-forming object surface of an article by generating magnetism in areas outside the nonmagnetic pattern grooves; and a spray unit spraying an adhesive resin composite containing a ferromagnetic pigment onto the pattern-forming object surface of the article. A predetermined magnetic pigment pattern is formed while the magnetic pigment of the adhesive resin composite that is applied to the pattern-forming object surface of the article is rearranged along magnetic field lines generated by the magnetic pattern mold.

Abstract: A medical imaging apparatus operates to automatically recommend protocols suitable for image capture of a subject based on information related to the subject, and a control method operates the medical imaging apparatus. The medical imaging apparatus includes a controller which determines one or more protocols to scan a subject, classifies the protocols based on plural predefined criteria, and aligns and recommends the protocols classified according to a selected criterion if any one of the plural criteria is selected, and a display unit which displays an array of the protocols recommended by the controller.
