Computer-implemented enhanced invasive imaging methods, systems, and computer-readable media are described.

A method and system are provided for automatically positioning a medical diagnostic device. The method and system use a database of images that includes reference images and user-preferred images to position the medical diagnostic device. The medical diagnostic device in an initial position is moved to a final position based on the images in the database.

A method for processing sensor data in a number of controllers in a controller complex. The controllers are connected to at least one sensor via at least one communication bus, wherein the sensor data of the at least one sensor are processed by at least two different controllers in stages. At least one processing stage is concordant in the two controllers or is equivalent to the other stage at least in so far as the results of the processing are converted into one another by a conversion. Provision is made for a preprocessing unit to which the sensor data of the at least one sensor are supplied, wherein the processing of the sensor data in the at least one concordant processing stage is performed in the preprocessing unit, and the processed sensor data are forwarded to the at least two different controllers for individual further processing.

An image processing apparatus comprising: an acquisition unit that acquires exposure information of an image signal; a setting unit that sets tone conversion characteristic based on the exposure information and visual characteristics; and a tone conversion unit that performs tone conversion on the image signal using the tone conversion characteristic. The visual characteristics is a minimum amount of luminance change that a human can recognize and that differ for different luminance, and the setting unit obtains for each luminance an intersection of a first function that indicates a ratio of an amount of luminance change per one code value difference of the image signal before the tone conversion is performed and a second function that indicates a ratio of a minimum amount of luminance change that a human can recognize, and sets the tone conversion characteristic based on the intersection.

A method for validating the physical parameters of a check to approve or deny the deposit transaction comprising the steps of scanning a physical check with a scanner, comparing the digital scan of the check against preset digital parameters by a field comparator to insure that the digital scan of the check meets predetermined physical check parameters and check fields and preparing a written rejection/acceptance to the check submitted in the form of a deposit receipt.

A soldering quality detection platform comprises a 2D image acquisition device adapted to acquire a 2D image of a soldered region of a soldered product, a 3D image acquisition device adapted to acquire a 3D image of the soldered region of the soldered product, and a judgment device. The judgment device is adapted to determine whether a soldering quality is qualified based on the 2D image and the 3D image of the soldered region of the soldered product.

Methods and systems for generating and displaying a simulated anatomical photograph based on a medical image generated by an imaging modality. The system comprises an electronic processor configured to receive the medical image, determine an anatomical structure in the medical image, and automatically generate the simulated anatomical photograph based on the anatomical structure, wherein the pixels of the simulated anatomical photograph represent a simulated cross-sectional anatomical photograph of the anatomical structure. The electronic processor is also configured to determine a degree of confidence of a portion of the simulated anatomical photograph, compare the degree of confidence to a threshold, and, in response to the degree of confidence of the portion of the simulated anatomical photograph failing to satisfy the threshold, display the portion of the simulated anatomical photograph differently from another portion of the simulated anatomical photograph.

Devices and methods are presented for managing data security. One example method includes receiving user identification information from a screen of a device that is connectable to a database of secure information. The method includes authenticating the user identification information, the authenticating includes capturing image data of a user associated with the user identification information. The method provides access to the database of secure information upon authenticating the user identification information. The method records data of user interactive input and viewed images displayed on the screen while the access provided. The method stores audit data for the user when accessing the database of secure information, the audit data being associated with a history of use by the user. The audit data including a plurality of events associated with the use. The method enables replay of the audit data for at least one of the plurality of events associated with the use.
