Abstract: A shift register includes stages each constituted by a unit circuit provided with a thin-film transistor (separation transistor) that separates a control node into an output-side first control node and an input-side second control node and a capacitor whose first end is connected to the second control node. The thin-film transistor (separation transistor) has a control terminal that is supplied with a high-level DC power supply voltage. Typically, the channel width of a thin-film transistor (first output control transistor) that controls output from a unit circuit is ten or more times greater than the channel width of the thin-film transistor (separation transistor).

Abstract: A focusing apparatus includes a determination unit configured to determine whether an object is a moving object, and a focusing unit configured to perform focusing using information on driving of the focus lens generated based on the focus detecting signal in response to an operation of an operation unit. The determination unit determines whether the object is the moving object, using a first threshold before the operation of the operation unit, and using a second threshold different from the first threshold after the operation of the operation unit. The focusing unit performs first focusing that continuously performs the focusing when the determination unit determines that the object is the moving object before the operation of the operation unit, and performs the first focusing when the determination unit determines that the object is the moving object after performing second focusing that performs the focusing once.

Abstract: A laboratory information system (LIS) is linked with a whole slide image (WSI) management system to build a pathology image management system that can efficiently manage and utilize a digitized pathology image. A scan notification notifying that an image of a glass slide is scanned by a scanner is delivered to the LIS from the WSI management system to form a WSI link in the LIS, so that the LIS is linked with the WSI management system. By linking two systems with each other can eliminate the problem of mixing up specimens, for example, and hence, a pathologist can easily grasp the status of a pathology sample for which the pathologist is responsible.
