Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method of aligning images included in a focal stack and estimates depth information of an object in the images by extracting features of the aligned images, using a neural network model. A focal stack alignment method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes: calculating a relative Field of View (FoV) of a focal stack photographed by a photographing device using metadata of the photographing device; primarily aligning the focal stack on the basis of the relative FoV; determining a flow field of the focal stack using radial motion, horizontal motion, and vertical motion features of each of primarily aligned images; and secondarily aligning the focal stack using the flow field.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a skin attachment connecting device and, more specifically, to a skin attachment connecting device for applying a micro-electric current for a cell movement of the skin, wherein a protrusion part comes into contact with a skin attachment while the connecting device formed in a tong shape picks up the attachment formable in various shapes, such that a micro-electric current is applied to the skin attachment. In order to achieve the purpose as described above, a connecting device for applying power transferred from a power supply device to a skin attachment, according to the present invention, is formed in a tong shape and comprises, therein, a connection part for applying power transferred from the power supply device to the skin attachment while contacting the skin attachment.

Abstract: A cooling system of a computed tomography (CT) system provides for a more efficient operation than known heretofore. The cooling system of the CT system includes a gantry and a table that moves an object into a bore of the gantry. The gantry includes part boxes mounted therein, and blade elements are formed in regions of the part boxes. The cooling system of the CT system includes a cooling method that includes a multiple cooling method including a stand-by mode and an operating mode.

Abstract: The ultrasonic probe includes a transducer array that generates ultrasonic waves, a backing layer that is provided on a rear surface of the transducer array, a pulsating heat pipe that absorbs heat generated in the transducer array, and a heat radiation unit that receives the heat from the pulsating heat pipe to emit the received heat to the outside.

Abstract: Cooling systems of a CT system and methods of cooling the CT system are disclosed. The CT system includes a gantry and a table that moves an object into a bore of the gantry, wherein the gantry includes a cover having a front surface in which at least an inlet slot is formed and a rear surface in which exhaust holes are formed along with exhaust fans in the rear surface of the cover of the gantry. Fans for the in-take and exhaustion of air are not required to be formed on the front surface of the cover of the gantry. A hole through which external air is taken in through the inlet slot is moved in a rotor of the gantry.

Abstract: Provided is a probe for an ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus. The probe includes: the transducer module including a transducer configured to transmit or receive ultrasound waves; a first casing positioned below the transducer module to support the transducer module; a second casing extending along a perimeter of the first casing and integrally formed with the first casing; and a heat spreader positioned below the transducer module and above the first casing, where the heat spreader is a sheet of metal.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a transducer support, ultrasound probe, and ultrasound imaging apparatus. The ultrasound transducer support includes a first layer having first areas in which heat transfer materials are arranged and second areas in which sound absorbent materials are arranged, the first and second areas being arranged alternately; and a second layer having third areas located below the first areas in which sound absorbent materials are arranged and fourth areas located below the second areas in which heat transfer materials are arranged.
