Patent number: 8750584Abstract: When brain images are inputted through MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) and subjected to image processing to assist the diagnosis of brain diseases, functional and morphological images in an ASL coordinate system are inputted from the head of a subject by an ASL (Arterial Spin Labeling) imaging method using an MRI device. The inputted functional images are subjected to mask processing to extract only the region of cerebral parenchyma, and functional images of only the extracted region of the cerebral parenchyma are thereby produced and displayed to be overlaid on the morphological images. In this manner, a functional image such as a perfusion weighted image of only the region of the cerebral parenchyma can be extracted and displayed overlaid on a morphological image.Type: GrantFiled: September 17, 2010Date of Patent: June 10, 2014Assignee: Dai Nippon Printing Co., Ltd.Inventors: Seiji Matsuba, Tetsutaro Ono, Tomoaki Goto, Kunihiko Kasahara, Hiroshi Matsuda

Publication number: 20130306296Abstract: When insulating substrates of different shapes are soldered to a radiator plate, a third concave curve is previously formed on an insulating substrate side of the radiator plate. The third curve is determined by adding a second concave curve which is expected at the time of actually soldering the insulating substrates to the radiator plate to a first concave curve obtained by moving upside down a convex curve which appears at the time of soldering the insulating substrates to a flat radiator plate. A bottom of the third curve is positioned under the large insulating substrate, and a curvature of a portion where the distance between the bottom and a reference point of the radiator plate is longer is made smaller than a curvature of a portion where the distance between the bottom and a reference point of the radiator plate is shorter.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 25, 2013Publication date: November 21, 2013Applicant: FUJI ELECTRIC CO., LTD.Inventors: Yoshinori Uezato, Masayuki Soutome, Rikihiro Maruyama, Tomoaki Goto
