Abstract: Provided herein is technology relating to radiology and radiotherapy and particularly, but not exclusively, to apparatuses, methods, and systems for multi-axis medical imaging of patients in vertical and horizontal positions.

Abstract: Systems and methods relating to a data model are described. The data model includes aspects of both static and dynamic data structures. In a typical implementation the dynamic data structures are used to store information whose organization and values may change responsive to the values of other data stored in the data model. The static data structures are used to store information whose structure and content are relatively more static. Tables within the static and dynamic data structures include a unique key configured to interrelate information stored in each data structure. The data model is illustrated using a customer relationship management (CRM) example. In this example, roles and relationships between business objects are stored in the dynamic data structures.

Abstract: A flexible one-piece self-gripping self-forming-loop attachment, comprising a single ergonomically shaped and dimensioned strip of elastic material with circular apertures at opposing ends for attachment to a drumstick by inserting one end of the drumstick through each aperture in turn giving rise to a loop which is slid along the drumstick to the desired playing position at which a finger is inserted. When the loop is fitted the material surrounding the apertures stretches and causes their shape to change according to the profile of the drumstick.

Abstract: A beater pedal arrangement for use with a drum, particularly a bass drum, wherein the beater pedal arrangement includes first and second drum beaters which are designed to strike the same drum. During depression of a play pedal of the arrangement by the user, the first beater travels on an arc towards the drum and strides the drum surface and the second beater travels on an arc away from the drum. The second beater is biased by return springs which force the second bearer to travel on an arc towards the drum to strike the drum surface when the user releases the play pedal. The beater pedal arrangement also includes a beater disactivating arrangement which enables the user to disactivate one of the drum beaters, particularly the second drum beater, by restraining the beater at a point along its striking arc, such that drum surface may be struck utilising one drum beater.
