Abstract: The trench has, in a cross-sectional view, a first corner portion which is an intersection between a first sidewall surface and a bottom portion and a second corner portion which is an intersection between a second sidewall surface and the bottom portion. A first layer has a second-conductivity-type region. In a cross-sectional view, the second-conductivity-type region is arranged to intersect with a line which passes through any of the first corner portion and the second corner portion and is in parallel to a <0001> direction of a silicon carbide crystal forming the silicon carbide layer. A ratio calculated by dividing SP by ST is not lower than 20% and not higher than 130%, where ST represents a total area of the trenches in a boundary surface between the first layer and a second layer and SP represents a total area of the second-conductivity-type regions in a plan view.

Abstract: There is provided an iron-based mixture powder for sintering, as well as an iron-based sintered alloy using same, that are capable of reducing the cutting resistance of the iron-based sintered alloy and of mitigating the shortening of cutting tool life even when a metal fluoride powder is used. The iron-based mixture powder for sintering comprises an iron-based powder, a graphite powder, a hard powder that is harder than the iron-based powder, and a metalfluoride powder. With respect to particle asperity as expressed by the following equation, particle asperity=(perimeter of a section of a particle)2/(sectional area of the section×4Pi), the particle asperity of the metal fluoride powder is within the range of 2 to 5.

Abstract: A radiographic imaging system includes an imaging apparatus which takes a radiographic image of a subject and outputs image data of the radiographic image; an image processing apparatus which performs image processing of at least one of an exposure field recognition process and a trimming process on the image data of the radiographic image; an image processing information storage apparatus which stores the imaging conditions of the radiographic image and image processing information which indicates the image processing and its applicable range in an associated manner; and an image processing information search apparatus which searches for image processing information according to imaging conditions of current imaging, among the image processing information of past imaging stored.

Abstract: An image processing apparatus capable of clipping a diagnostic region while retaining the pixel information of the original radiographic image even when the subject is imaged aslant. The image processing apparatus applies trimming processing to a radiographic image acquired by an imaging apparatus for acquiring a radiographic image of a subject and includes an image rotation unit for rotating the radiographic image so that the subject is aligned with a given direction to produce a display image, a diagnostic region designation unit for designating a first diagnostic region clipped with a diagnostic region designation frame represented by a rectangle for the display image, and a trimming processing unit for calculating a second diagnostic region in the radiographic image from a rotation amount of the display image and diagnostic region information representing the first diagnostic region and applying trimming processing to the radiographic image to clip the second diagnostic region.

Abstract: A radiographic imaging apparatus with which the rotation amount of acquired radiographs can be the same in comparative interpretation of these images. The radiographic imaging apparatus includes an imaging unit for emitting radiation from a radiation source to a subject and detecting radiation having passed through the subject with a radiation detector having sensors arrayed therein to acquire a radiographic image, an image processor for performing rotation processing on the radiographic image to produce an acquired radiograph and collateral information of the acquired radiograph, a storage unit for storing the acquired radiograph and the collateral information, and a monitor for displaying the acquired radiograph. The collateral information contains the direction in which the sensors are arrayed and a rotation angle used in the rotation processing and is correlated to the acquired radiograph.

Abstract: Client terminals are installed in medical facilities, and connected through a network to a data center. Concrete cases relating to a variety of medicaments are reported at the client terminals and accumulated as case information in a medicament-to-case information database of the data center. In prescribing some medicaments, prescription data indicating the names of the medicaments is attached to inquiry data, and sent to the data center. In response to the inquiry data, a data server of the data center refers to a medicament basic information database, to check whether the medicaments indicated by the prescription data can interact adversely. If the answer is yes, the data server searches the medicament-to-case information database for such case information that relates to the interaction of these medicaments, and sends back advisory information informing of the possibility of adverse interaction of the inquired medicaments, accompanied with the retrieved case information.

Abstract: When an electronic medical chart of a patient is read out at a client terminal, a registration checking section checks registration record data attached to the medical chart. If the registration record data indicates that any case information relating a previous prescription has not been registered, a warning dialog box is displayed on a monitor, to require registration of case information. When an OK button is pressed in the warning dialog box, a case information registering dialog box is displayed on the monitor. When a register button is pressed after inputting necessary information in the case information registering dialog box, case reporting data is produced from the inputted information, and is sent to a data center, where the case reporting data is registered as new case information in a database. Thus, the registration record data is revised, and the medical chart is rewritten with the inputted case information.
