Abstract: The present invention provides a method for activating a pro-drug in vivo comprising the steps of: (a) administering a pro-drag to a subject; (b) locating a target site which has been at least partially dosed with the pro-drug at a predetermined concentration; and (d) exposing the target site to X-ray radiation. The step of exposing the target site to X-ray radiation is characterized by providing a converging X-ray of a controllable waist, substantially uniform at the target site, sufficient to convert the pro-drug to an active drug, whilst the X-ray photon dosage at the target site is higher than the X-ray photon dosage at an adjacent non target site.

Abstract: Images are processed to compensate for rolling shutter effects. A pair of images are registered. A set of pixel rows in the first image and a corresponding set of pixel rows in the second image are obtained. A parametric model is generated characterizing a transformation between pixels in the set of pixel rows in the first image with pixels in the corresponding set of pixel rows of the second image. Using the generated parametric model, the set of pixel rows in the second image is warped with respect to the set of pixel rows in the first image, reducing rolling shutter effects.
