The disclosure relates to a method for localizing the three-dimensional position of a spot in an object in conjunction with X-ray exposure of the object, in which the object is fixed in a pre-determined position and is exposed by means of an exposure apparatus in two directions each on either side of a center line at a right angle to the plane of the image for obtaining a first print and a second print, the two-dimensional position of the target spot on the two prints being established in relati...

Described herein is sonar localization apparatus which comprises a plurality of acoustic transducers (6) arranged to define at least two end fire arrays (2, 4) each of which produces a sonar beam (10, 12) suitable for the detection of objects in the near field.

A computer-implemented method for object localization includes providing a plurality of tags having fixed positions within an environment and known identifications, and providing a reader, for detecting the tags and reading the identifications, wherein the reader detects a plurality of tags within a scanning volume having a known shape. The method further includes determining positions for the plurality of tags within the scanning volume, and determining a position of the reader according to the...

In an implementation of component localization, control components are maintained that each define a localization format, such as a display format for a section of a display. A locale designation is received and a control component is obtained that corresponds to a locale. Display data is generated that includes the control component in a display format defined by the control component and which corresponds to the designated locale according the defined localization format.

A method of utilizing radiolabelled antibodies to carcinoembryonic antigens for determining the site of tumors which produce or are associated with carcinoembryonic antigen is disclosed.

An acoustical apparatus for divers including an underwater omni-directional transmitter and a three-section receiver having two hydrophones and two earpieces mounted on head gear worn by each diver. Pulse signals from the transmitter are sensed by the hydrophones disposed in a signal conditioning section of the receiver and are coupled through preamplifiers and detection circuits to bistable multivibrators in a signal processing section of the receiver. This latter section includes a pair of mic...

A sound localization control apparatus is used to localize the sounds, which can be produced from a synthesizer and the like, at a target sound-image location. The target sound-image location is intentionally located in a three-dimensional space which is formed around a listener who listens to the sounds. The sound localization control apparatus at least provides a controller, a plurality of sound-directing devices and an allocating unit. The controller produces a distance parameter and a direct...

Date June 28, 1979 A device for detecting and localizing soft gamma and X radiations, comprising an enclosure 10 provided with a window 11 opaque to light and transparent to incident radiations, occupied by a noble gas and provided with electrodes for causing the electrons to drift towards a secondary photon creation space. In said space there reigns an electri...

The invention relates to radiopharmaceuticals useful for specifically localizing blood clots during the diagnosis and treatment of thromboembolic disorders. In one embodiment, the invention comprises a method for preparing and using radioactive urokinase. A novel process for producing urokinase labeled with technetium-99m involves combination of urokinase with the nuclide in a basic solution containing ferric chloride and ascorbic acid, and then adjusting the pH to give an acidic condition in th...

A process of isolating and identifying cloned DNA segments from defined regions of a chromosome by preparing a series of cell hybrids from a first species and a second species, which hybrids contain a chromosome or deletion mutant of a chromosome as the o The Government has rights in this invention pursuant to Contract Number CA-5-14051 awarded by the Department of Health and Human Services, Contract Number PCM 77-17747 awarded by the National Science Foundation, and Contract Number 1-713 awarde...
