TL;DR: The analysis of the eigenvalues of the elasticity tensor support the hypothesis that breast carcinoma might exhibit an anisotropic elasticity distribution and the surrounding benign tissue appears isotropic.
Abstract: MR elastography is a novel imaging technique for the visualization of elastic properties of tissue. It is expected that this method will have diagnostic value for the clarification of suspicious breast lesions. Low-frequency mechanical waves are coupled into the tissue and visualized via an MR sequence which is phase-locked to the mechanical excitation. Commonly, elasticity is assumed to be isotropic and reconstruction is performed in only two dimensions. The technique is extended to three dimensions such that the entire symmetric elasticity tensor is assessed. This is achieved by measuring different phases of the mechanical wave during one oscillatory cycle. Thereby it is possible to provide information about the anisotropy of the elasticity tensor. Finite-element simulations as well as phantom experiments are performed to demonstrate the feasibility of the method. Initial clinical results of a breast carcinoma are presented. The analysis of the eigenvalues of the elasticity tensor support the hypothesis that breast carcinoma might exhibit an anisotropic elasticity distribution. The surrounding benign tissue appears isotropic. Thereby new and additional diagnostic information is provided which might help in distinguishing between benign and malignant breast diseases.

14 May 1998TL;DR: In this paper, a light emitting device for use in lighting and/or display applications includes a UV/blue LED located in a depression having reflecting sidewalls, a light transmitting material surrounding the LED and filling the depression, and a phosphor in the form of particles either dispersed in the light transmission material or adhered to the surface of the LED.
Abstract: A light emitting device for use in lighting and/or display applications includes a UV/blue LED located in a depression having reflecting sidewalls, a light transmitting material surrounding the LED and filling the depression, and a phosphor in the form of particles either dispersed in the light transmitting material or adhered to the surface of the LED. The sidewalls reflect UV as visible light, thus enhancing the efficiency of the device. Optical filters located on the top of the LED and/or the bottom of a UV absorbing glass plate covering the depression further enhance efficiency and/or spectral characteristics of the emitted light.

TL;DR: This work reviews recent progress toward the understanding of the molecular mechanism of the spindle checkpoint and its role in guarding genome integrity at the chromosome level and describes the current state of research in this area.
Abstract: Cancer cells contain abnormal number of chromosomes (aneuploidy), which is a prevalent form of genetic instability in human cancers. Defects in a cell cycle surveillance mechanism called the spindle checkpoint contribute to chromosome instability and aneuploidy. In response to straying chromosomes in mitosis, the spindle checkpoint inhibits the ubiquitin ligase activity of the anaphase-promoting complex or cyclosome (APC/C), thus preventing precocious chromosome segregation and ensuring the accurate partition of the genetic material. We review recent progress toward the understanding of the molecular mechanism of the spindle checkpoint and its role in guarding genome integrity at the chromosome level.

21 Aug 1988TL;DR: Additional features are introduced in order to provide: firstly, a mutual interactive authentication of both communicating entities and previously exchanged messages, and, secondly, a digital signature of messages, with a non-interactive zero-knowledge protocol.
Abstract: At EUROCRYPT'88, we introduced an interactive zero-knowledge protocol (Guillou and Quisquater [13]) fitted to the authentication of tamper-resistant devices (e.g. smart cards, Guillou and Ugon [14]).Each security device stores its secret authentication number, an RSA-like signature computed by an authority from the device identity. Any transaction between a tamper-resistant security device and a verifier is limited to a unique interaction: the device sends its identity and a random test number, then the verifier tells a random large question; and finally the device answers by a witness number. The transaction is successful when the test number is reconstructed from the witness number, the question and the identity according to numbers published by the authority and rules of redundancy possibly standardized.This protocol allows a cooperation between users in such a way that a group of cooperative users looks like a new entity, having a shadowed identity the product of the individual shadowed identities, while each member reveals nothing about its secret.In another scenario, the secret is partitioned between distinct devices sharing the same identity. A group of cooperative users looks like a unique user having a larger public exponent which is the greater common multiple of each individual exponent.In this paper, additional features are introduced in order to provide: firstly, a mutual interactive authentication of both communicating entities and previously exchanged messages, and, secondly, a digital signature of messages, with a non-interactive zero-knowledge protocol. The problem of multiple signature is solved here in a very smart way due to the possibilities of cooperation between users.The only secret key is the factors of the composite number chosen by the authority delivering one authentication number to each smart card. This key is not known by the user. At the user level, such a scheme may be considered as a keyless identity-based integrity scheme. This integrity has anew and important property: it cannot be misused, i.e. derived into a confidentiality scheme.

TL;DR: In this article, a critical review of idealized two-phase geometrical models is given, which derive expressions for the resistivity and Hall coefficient of a composite material in terms of the properties of its constituents.
Abstract: Gives a critical review of idealised two-phase geometrical models. These treatments derive expressions for the resistivity and Hall coefficient of a composite material in terms of the properties of its constituents. The authors show that these models can be applied to the interpretation of transport measurements in polycrystalline films and powder layers. Important distinctions are made depending on whether the depletion layers extend completely or partially through the grains, whether the Debye length is greater or less than the grain size and whether the mean free path is greater or less than the grain size. The authors discuss the theoretical treatment of the Hall effect in percolative systems, as geometrical models neglect percolation. The modulation of Hall coefficient and conductivity by illumination and the adsorption and desorption of ambient gases are also considered.
