Abstract: An image acquisition unit acquires a simultaneously captured image group including a plurality of endoscopic images in which the same subject is imaged in a simultaneous imaging mode, and at least one of an imaging method or an image processing method is different from each other. A display image generator generates a display image and causes the display device to display the display image. The display image generator can change the number of endoscopic images to be displayed from the simultaneously captured image group.

Abstract: A first examination identification unit identifies examination data including predetermined diagnosis data from among multiple pieces of examination data held in a recorder. A second examination identification unit identifies respective pieces of examination data of multiple examinations performed on a same patient after an examination date included in the examination data identified by the first examination identification unit from among the multiple pieces of examination data held in the recorder. An information acquisition unit acquires, based on multiple pieces of examination data identified by the first examination identification unit and the second examination identification unit, a period from the examination date included in the examination data identified by the first examination identification unit until the complete cure of the patient and the number of examinations performed until the complete cure of the patient.

Abstract: An information acquisition unit acquires multiple pieces of image information acquired through image analysis of multiple images captured in an endoscopic examination. An image information storage unit stores the acquired multiple pieces of image information. A number evaluation unit derives the number of captured images of each region based on the stored multiple pieces of image information and assigns, when the derived number of captured images of a region is different from an appropriate number of captured images, a first evaluation value to the evaluation result for the region. An image evaluation unit extracts, from the stored multiple pieces of image information, image information indicating that an image is inappropriate and assigns a second evaluation value to the evaluation result for the region corresponding to the extracted image information.

Abstract: An order information recording unit records information on an order for a patient. An arrival state recording unit records an arrival state that indicates whether or not a patient has arrived, in association with an order for the patient. An accepting unit accepts patient identification information entered into a portable terminal device. An order retrieval unit retrieves an order related to the patient identification information accepted by the accepting unit. A decision processing unit decides to display an entry screen for medical interview information when the arrival state associated with an order related to the patient identification information indicates that the patient has arrived. A display processing unit displays the entry screen for the medical interview information on the portable terminal device, in response to the decision made by the decision processing unit.

Abstract: A three-dimensional ceramic heater, such as a cylindrical ceramic heater, is proposed in which the conductive ceramic heating element is multi-furcated into lanes at least in the folded-back sections so that the electric current tends to flow in a more uniform and hence laminar manner with the effect that the localized over heating is suppressed greatly.

Abstract: In a debug transition information file or a debug state information file, individual states and individual transitions have been correlated with addresses of an object code. While a program executing portion is executing a program, if a program stop command or the like is issued, a debugger executes the stop operation of the program with an address of the object code specified, based on the correlated results. Thus, the program can be more easily stopped or re-executed at any position in the function specifications. In addition, a state or a transition can be easily specified at any position of the program. When the function specifications have a hierarchical structure, the operation of the system can be easily checked.

Abstract: It is an object of the present invention to provide a state-transition-model-based programming system where the program data structure is simple and compact. To achieve this object, one or more specifications comprising a program are entered from the input unit (11) and specification input section (12) in the from of state transition models. The specification storage means (21) stores the specifications. The specification execution section (32) executes the specifications. When one of the beginning conditions is satisfied, the priority processing section (33) changes the specification to the next specification corresponding to the beginning condition. The change processing section (34) determines the beginning state of the next specification according to the correspondence stored in the state map storage means.

Abstract: A process of insulatingly coating a front and a back surface of a printed circuit board is disclosed. A vessel has a large top opening for receiving coating liquid therein and has a plurality of small apertures formed in the bottom. The vessel is immersed into a pool of coating liquid contained in a reservoir for injection of coating liquid into the vessel. The vessel is pulled upward from the reservoir before a printed circuit board reaches the location of the vessel, whereby a coating liquid flows down through the plurality of apertures in the vessel as series of continuous thin streams in the form of strings. A printed circuit board disposed at an angle is fed through the shower thus formed. After passing through the shower, the board is pivotally driven to present a surface which has previously been facing downward upward, and the board is again fed in an inclined position through the shower.

Abstract: A drive control system for stopping a sewing machine when a thread of the sewing machine is broken or tangled. The system comprises rotational speed meter circuits, each one of which is coupled with respective thread tension disk means which rotate in synchronism due to movement of threads on them. A deceleration of the rotation of one of the thread tension disk means is detected by a rotational speed meter circuit coupled with it. An electric logic circuit in the system, which is energized to drive the sewing machine in response to a closure of a start switch and deenergized to stop the sewing machine in response to a closure of a stop switch, is deenergized to stop the sewing machine in response to the detection of the deceleration of the rotation of one of the rotary disks.
