Abstract: A method and apparatus generate an image in positron emission tomography (PET). The method and apparatus are configured to divide detected signals into sections at time intervals. The detected signals are emitted from tracers introduced into a target. The method and apparatus are also configured to generate unit signals for each of the sections by accumulating the divided signals at each respective section. The method and apparatus are further configured to classify the unit signals into groups based on characteristics of each of the unit signals, and generate the medical image of the target from the unit signals classified into the groups.

Abstract: A driving method of a plasma display device according to an exemplary embodiment groups a plurality of address electrodes extending in a first direction into a plurality of groups, and logically divides each of the groups into a plurality of sub-groups. During a first period, a first pulse is sequentially applied to the plurality of groups, and a second pulse is sequentially applied to the plurality of sub-groups included in at least one of the plurality of groups during a second period following the first period. The first and second periods are address periods for sensing in a second direction crossing the first direction.

Abstract: A plasma display device with touch sensing function includes a display panel having a plurality of first and second electrodes, and third electrodes crossing the first and second electrodes, and first, second and third drivers adapted to drive the first, second and third electrodes in a plurality of subfields including a sensing subfield having a first period and a second period. During the first period, the first driver is adapted to apply a first voltage higher than a reference voltage to the first electrodes, the second driver is adapted to time sequentially apply a second voltage lower than the first voltage to the second electrodes. During the second period, the first driver is adapted to apply a fourth voltage lower than the first voltage to the first electrodes, and the third driver is adapted to time sequentially apply a third voltage higher than the reference voltage to the third electrodes.
