  • Publication number: 20140095989
    Abstract: A display apparatus for displaying accumulated data items includes obtaining means for obtaining a plurality of data items accumulated, classifying means for classifying the plurality of data items into N groups on the basis of predetermined criteria, display-control means for controlling an indication on a display unit such that the plurality of data are displayed in N display regions corresponding to the N groups, and accepting means for accepting a specification of one display region from among the N display regions. When the accepting means accepts a specification of one display region from among the N display regions, the classifying means classifies a plurality of data items displayed in the specified display region into a further N groups, and the display-control means controls an indication on the display unit such that the plurality of data items are displayed in the N display regions corresponding to the N groups.

  • Patent number: 6073045
    Abstract: The apparatus for ultrasonic tissue investigation comprises an ultrasonic transducer (1) adapted to emit pulsed emissions into tissue and means (2) to move the transducer to scan an area of tissue to be investigated. Signals reflected from interfaces between acoustically different tissue components are received and converted into a representation of the tissue, which may be visually displayed. The emissions of ultrasonic radiation are so pulsed that each pulse has a very rapid fall back period, enabling better discrimination. Interpretation of the images may be facilitated by use of such techniques as fractal analysis.
