Abstract: A method is disclosed for displaying image data of a large intestine of a patient on the basis of tomographic examination data. In at least one embodiment, the method includes scanning of the patient, after ingestion of a contrast agent, in at least two differently aligned positions using a tomography system and generating a tomographic image data record for each position; segmenting the large intestine in the tomographic data records; detecting and marking regions of the segmented large intestine with adjacent remaining stool in the intestine (covered regions); registering the segmented large intestine in the at least two tomographic image data records; displaying a tomographic display of the segmented large intestine including markings of the covered regions; and displaying a selection menu in which tomographic displays of the segmented large intestine in the at least two differently aligned positions of the patient, including a marking of the covered regions, can be selected alternatively.

Abstract: An endless conveyor, in particular a link conveyor for items of baggage in the baggage-reclaim area of an airport, which, by very straightforward and functionally reliable design, is to replace the expensive, heavy and maintenance-intensive prior-art conveyor guided on link chains. According to the invention, it is proposed that the traction device provided for the endless conveyor is a cable, in particular wire cable, which connects the conveying elements and on which the conveying elements are fastened at defined intervals such that they can negotiate curves and gradients, and that driving takes place preferably via a linear drive.

Abstract: Described is a cooled gas turbine guide blade for a gas turbine, with a hollow blade profile which comprises an onflow edge onto which a working medium is capable of flowing, and with, for guiding a cooling medium, an onflow edge duct running inside the blade profile along the onflow edge. Furthemore, to the use of such a gas turbine guide blade and to a method for operating a gas turbine with an abovementioned gas turbine guide blade. In order to provide a gas turbine guide blade with an increased lifetime by means of the invention, it is proposed that, in the onflow edge duct, an electrical heating element be provided, which extends approximately completely over the entire length of the onflow edge duct and through which a heating current flows, before the operation of the gas turbine, for the preheating of the gas turbine guide blade.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for measuring the mechanical internal stress of a body of ferromagnetic material includes generating a sinusoidal magnetic field at given site of a ferromagnetic body. First and second amplitudes of the third harmonic component of the induction at first and second measuring sites at the body being mutually spaced apart by an angle of 90.degree. with respect to the given site, are measured. An associated first curve from a first predetermined family of curves representing the third harmonic component of the induction as a function of the mechanical stress for the first amplitude, is located. An associatead second curve from a second predetermined family of curves representing the third harmonic component of the induction as a function of the mechanical stress for the second amplitude, is located.
