Methods and systems for providing feedback to guide selection of an artificial bone flap. A user interface for planning a neurosurgical procedure is provided, the neurosurgical procedure including closing of an opening in a portion of a patient's skull using an artificial bone flap. 3D dimensions of the opening are determined using at least pre-operative three-dimensional (3D) imaging data. One or more parameters for selecting an artificial bone flap are determined, where the one or more parameters are based on at least the 3D dimensions of the opening. Output indicating one or more recommended available artificial bone flaps suitable for closing the opening is provided, the recommendation being based on the determined one or more parameters.

A system and a computer implemented method are disclosed to model breast shape using three-dimensional spherical harmonics with adjustable parameters to modulate breast size, projection, and/or ptosis. The method includes receiving a 3D image including a breast, identifying the breast in the 3D image, extracting 3D image data of the breast from the 3D image, forming a closed object using the 3D image data of the breast to create a zero-genus surface, mapping the 3D image data of the breast to a predefined template using spherical coordinates, and determining a 3D spherical harmonic descriptor of the 3D image data of the breast.

A remote image transmission system, a display apparatus, and a guide displaying method of a display apparatus are provided. The remote image transmission system includes: an image capturing apparatus including a plurality of image pickup devices that are spaced from each other, the image capturing apparatus being configured to transmit, to a display apparatus, a plurality of images which are captured by the plurality of image pickup devices; and a display apparatus configured to generate a guide object indicating physical information of a captured object by using the plurality of received images, and to display the generated guide object and at least one of the plurality of images.

An intra-oral imaging apparatus for obtaining a contour image of a tooth has a fringe pattern generator energizable to emit a fringe pattern illumination. The fringe pattern generator has (i) at least one structured light source that is energizable to emit a patterned light beam; (ii) at least one reflective element in the path of the emitted patterned light beam and actuable to rotate about an axis to scan the emitted patterned light beam along a tooth surface as fringe pattern illumination. A detector is configured to acquire one or more images of the fringe pattern illumination from the tooth surface. A control logic processor is configured to control the fringe pattern generator for illuminating the tooth and to obtain and process the one or more images acquired by the detector.

A measurement system includes: a mounting member configured to be mounted on a measurement target portion of a living body and including a plurality of holding units configured to hold a plurality of magnetic sensors such that the plurality of magnetic sensors face the measurement target portion; an image capturing unit configured to capture images of markers arranged in arrangement regions of the plurality of holding units of the mounting member mounted on the measurement target portion, in the measurement target portion; a moving mechanism unit configured to move the image capturing unit relative to the measurement target portion on which the mounting member is mounted; and a derivation unit configured to derive three-dimensional position information on the plurality of magnetic sensors held by the plurality of holding units relative to the measurement target portion, based on the captured images of the markers.

The present disclosure describes a probe device with a control assembly, a bulb housing, and a probe section. The control assembly features a control mechanism and is generally configured to receive user commands. The probe section is electrically and mechanically connected to the control assembly and features a curvature. It is configured to curve in response to user commands. The bulb housing is configured to enclose a radiation emitting unit. The radiation emitting unit being electrically connected to the control assembly.

Systems and methods for discriminating between malignant and benign pigmented skin lesions based on optical analysis using spatial distribution maps, morphological parameters, and additional diagnostic parameters derived from images of tissue lesions. A handheld optical transfer diagnosis device is disclosed capable of capturing a series of reflectance images of a skin lesion at a variety of angles of illumination and observation.

Audio of a user speaking is gathered while spatial data of the face of the user is gathered. Positions of elements of the face of are identified, wherein relative positions of the elements cause a plurality of qualities of the user voice. A subset of positions of the elements are identified to have caused a detected first quality of the user voice during the period of time. Alternate positions of the one or more elements are identified that are determined to cause the user voice to have a second quality rather than the first quality. A graphical representation of the face that depicts one or more adjustments from the subset of the positions to the alternate positions is provided to the user.

In an aspect of the invention, a method of identifying sensory inputs affecting working memory load of an individual is provided. The method comprises monitoring (S101) working memory load of the individual using a sensor device, detecting (S102) an increase in the working memory load of the individual, and identifying (S103), in response to the detected increase, at least one sensory input affecting the working memory load of the individual.

A method for deriving accurate body size measures of a user from a sequence of 2D images includes: a) automatically guiding the user through a sequence of body poses and motions; b) scanning the body of said user by obtaining a sequence of raw 2D images of said user as captured by at least one camera during said guided sequence of poses and motions; c) analyzing the behavior of said user to ensure that the user follows the provided instructions; d) extracting and encoding 2D shape data descriptors from said sequence of images by using a 2D shape analyzer (2DSA); and e) integrating said 2D shape descriptors and data representing the user's position, pose and rotation into a 3D shape model.
