Abstract: A method is provided for modifying an image. The method comprises displaying an image, the image comprising a portion of an object; and determining if an edge of the object is in a location within the portion. The method further comprises detecting movement, in a member direction, of an operating member with respect to the edge. The method still further comprises moving, if the edge is not in the location, the object in an object direction corresponding to the detected movement; and modifying, if the edge is in the location, the image in response to the detected movement, the modified image comprising the edge in the location.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method of measuring skin blood flow on a test site using a blood flow meter. The method includes the steps of calibrating the probe of the blood flow meter, using a bio-simulating model to produce a thermo-EMF flow curve, attaching the probe to a site to be tested to generate an electromagnetic force for the test site, and determining the skin blood flow at the test site by comparing the electromagnetic force to the thermo-EMF curve. The method may also include the step of maintaining the temperature in the probe at a value slightly higher than that of the test site.

Abstract: A micropump disposed within a human body for continuously delivering small quantities of a pharmaceutical liquid stored therein to be injected in a human body, wherein the delivery rate is controlled by the action of a pharmaceutical liquid injection control device in response to external electric signals.
