  • Publication number: 20170273223
    Abstract: A cooling system is adapted for reduction of evaporative loss of a liquid coolant and for efficient cooling of plural electronic devices densely accommodated in a cooling bath of a small volume. A cooling system accommodates plural electronic devices in an open space of a cooling bath provided with an inlet port and an outlet port for a liquid coolant. The cooling system is configured to directly cool the electronic devices by immersion of the electronic devices in the liquid coolant circulated in the open space. The liquid coolant contains a perfluorinated compound as a main component. The liquid coolant is adapted to exhibit a liquid weight loss percentage of 1.5% or less as determined by allowing 10 ml of the liquid coolant in a 10-ml measuring cylinder (opening diameter: 11.5 mm) to spontaneously evaporate under normal environment at a room temperature of 25° C. for 100 hours.

  • Publication number: 20150006203
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, workflow templates are maintained, each workflow template including a predefined sequence of workflow stages associated with a particular type of medical diagnosis or process. In response to a request for processing medical image data from a user, a user identifier (ID) that identifies the user is automatically determined based on the request. At least one of the workflow templates that is specifically configured to process medical image data associated with the user is identified based on the user ID. One or more image processing operations defined by the identified workflow template are performed on the medical image data, generating a scene corresponding to an image view representing the medical image data. The scene associated with each of the workflow stages is stored in a persistent storage, where a scene includes metadata used to recreate a corresponding medical image view subsequently.

  • Patent number: 8868490
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, workflow templates are stored, each including a predefined sequence of workflow stages associated with a particular type of medical diagnosis or process. Each workflow stage defines one or more image processing operations to be performed. At least one workflow stage generates metadata specifying a parameter to be used by another workflow stage for processing a corresponding medical image. In response to medical image data received, at least one of the image processing operations defined by the workflow stages is performed on the medical image data. A scene is generated for each of the workflow stages representing an image view representing the medical image data. In response to a save or validate command received from a user, the scene associated with each of the workflow stages is stored in a persistent storage, which can be used to recreate a corresponding medical image view subsequently.

  • Patent number: 8399371
    Abstract: An optical glass in includes SiO2, B2O3, Al2O3, BaO, CaO, ZnO, La2O3, Gd2O3, and Y2O3, each in a specific ratio. Further, the optical glass satisfies the following conditional expressions (1) and (2), taking the content of SiO2 as A, the content of B2O3 as B, the content in total of La2O3, Gd2O3 and Y2O3 as C, and the content in total of SiO2 and B2O3 as D. 0.35<A/B<0.70??(1) 0.80<C/D<1.0??(2) By the above constitution, a high refractive index and low dispersibility are secured and at the same time deformation temperature (and glass transition temperature) lowers. By containing Al2O3, the glass structure is stabilized and a failure in appearance such as cloudiness in press molding is difficult to occur.

  • Patent number: 7492970
    Abstract: A system is provided wherein data processing devices are connected to a high-speed picture archiving and communications system (PACS) server network that archives and transmits medical image data. As part of a diagnostic process, medical images are processed at the data processing devices and image processing parameter (IPP) sets are created. The image processing parameters are attached to image diagnosis reports and can be used to recreate the processing of key images that are referenced in the image diagnosis reports. Users of the diagnostic reports can send the IPP sets to the PACS server network to recreate and retrieve key diagnostic images. The image data can be compressed for transmission over low bandwidth networks.

  • Publication number: 20080021877
    Abstract: In a system in which data processing devices are set up in the vicinity of or directly connected to data archiving devices of a plurality of medical image systems, image data and image processing parameters are specified from user terminal devices connected to the network. Image data specified by data processing devices is acquired, specified image processing operations are performed and the results of the image processing are sent to user terminal devices. The user terminal devices receive results of image processing from multiple data processing devices, image processing operations such as superimposition and fusion are conducted, and the results are displayed. Image processing operations therefore can be applied to image data stored in data archiving devices of multiple facilities for medical treatment using data processing devices in the vicinity without acquisition through the network.
