  • Publication number: 20240153037
    Abstract: A method and system for correcting a difference in contrast agent density in a sequence of contrast-enhanced image frames. A reference image frame is defined in the sequence of contrast-enhanced image frames, and segmentation is performed on the reference image frame to determine a location of a region of interest within the reference image frame. The region of interest is a region of the reference image frame that contains contrast agent. Other image frames in the sequence of contrast-enhanced images are corrected based on a difference in contrast agent density/image intensity in the region of interest relative to the region of interest in the reference image frame.

  • Patent number: 5726431
    Abstract: A shelf tag printing system includes a portable terminal in radio communication with a base station and a portable printer in wireless communication with the portable terminal. The portable terminal has a bar code scanner which reads product bar codes for radio transmission to the base station. The base station responds with informational signals indicating legends to be printed upon shelf tags by the printer. These signals are received by the portable terminal and relayed to the printer. Communication between the portable terminal and the printer is one-way via a surface wave acoustic resonator in the portable terminal and an amplifier sequenced hybrid receiver in the printer.
