  • Publication number: 20080137922
    Abstract: Methods and systems for converting dissimilar raw data collected primarily from one or more imaging devices into standard formats, organizing the formatted data into a hierarchical arrangement to facilitate efficient memory storage and subsequent retrieval, generating an imaging presentation, and recording that presentation onto portable media are shown. The imaging presentation can be subsequently viewed by a user by accessing the portable media using a platform-independent interface.

  • Publication number: 20040100489
    Abstract: Automatically generating a three dimensional web page from a two dimensional web page for display in a web browser by the web browser receiving two dimensional (HTML) content for the two dimensional web page, parsing the two dimensional content to separate (HTML) objects contained in the two dimensional content and to identify (utilizing HTML tags) an object type (e.g. text, buttons, frames, images, animation and video) for the objects contained in the two dimensional content, processing the objects differently (e.g. utilizing different algorithms), based on the object type identified in the parsing step, to generate three dimensional (HTML) content for the objects, and generating the three dimensional (HTML) web page utilizing the three dimensional content for the objects obtained in the processing step. Color channel separation may be performed to separate different color channels, such as red, blue and green.

  • Patent number: 6244507
    Abstract: A method, computer program product, and digital radiography system (100) detect type information concerning an anti-scatter grid (107), and store the information in a header (129) of a file (127) containing a digital x-ray image. A gleaning module (101) gleans relevant information from an identifier (103) on a physical medium (105) containing the anti-scatter grid (107). A retrieval module (121) retrieves an entry (123) corresponding to information gleaned from the identifier (103) and containing information concerning the anti-scatter grid (107) from a look-up table (119) in a computer memory (115). A storage module (131) stores the information in a header (129) of a file (127) containing the digital x-ray image. Additionally, a comparison module (401) compares type information concerning the identified anti-scatter grid (107) with type information for a correct anti-scatter grid for a procedure being performed.
