Olympus Launches New 4K Camera Head for Urological Endoscopy
TOKYO, Sept 20, 2024 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Olympus Corporation (Olympus), a global MedTech company committed to making people’s lives healthier, safer and more fulfilling, announced today the launch of a new 4K camera head1, CH-S700-08-LB, for endoscopic urology and gynecology procedures in Europe. The camera head is compatible with the VISERA ELITE III video system center for surgical endoscopy. This product is also set to be launched in Japan, Hong Kong and Singapore as soon as it is ready to comply with the regulations of each country, sequentially from September 2024. The technical development of this product was led by Sony Olympus Medical Solutions Corporation, a joint venture between Olympus and Sony Corporation.4K CAMERA HEAD OLYMPUS CH-S700-08-LBThis product provides four times the number of pixels than a conventional HD camera head, enabling observation with 4K white light images and 4K NBI (Narrow Band Imaging)2 images. It is also equipped with the BL (Blue Light)3 observation function offering versatile imaging capabilities in a single device to address diverse clinical needs. This will support high-quality diagnosis and treatment of urological diseases, including bladder cancer, by providing unprecedented endoscopic image clarity. Through the launch of this product, Olympus aims to enhance the patient care pathway of early diagnosis, minimally invasive treatment, and follow-up for non-muscle invasive bladder cancer, thereby improving the standard of care and patient outcomes.1 A camera head mainly used in endoscopic surgery in combination with an endoscope and peripheral equipment for the purpose of displaying images inside the body on a monitor. This product is also applicable to obstetric and gynecological procedures.2 NBI (Narrow band imaging) is an imaging technique for examining features such as the small blood vessels in mucosa and the surface patterns. NBI highlights tissue by illuminating it with two narrow bands (wavelengths) of light that are absorbed by the hemoglobin in blood without making use of a fluorescence dye. 3 BL (Blue Light) is an optical-digital technology that supports distinguish cancerous tissue that accumulate certain fluorophores from healthy tissue that has not. Fluorophores are then selectively deposited in a tumor and emit red fluorescence under blue excitation light. As of this release, this function is supported only in Japan. It has not yet been approved for use in Europe per the EU MDR.Background of the launchBladder cancer is one of the most common cancers that occur in the elderly population. With its high prevalence, in conjunction with its vulnerability to multiple recurrences and progression despite local therapy, this leads to a substantial health service burden globally. In particular, non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC), which is said to account for 75% of bladder cancers, recurs in 31-78% of cases within 5 years after surgery1. In response, Olympus is focused on reducing postoperative recurrence and improving patient outcomes by enhancing cancer detection through urological endoscopy and supporting tumor resection through transurethral surgery. In September 2024, Olympus will launch the VISERA S, endoscopic visualization platform. Designed for office and ambulatory settings, which provides high-definition endoscopic images to support early detection and diagnosis of diseases. Both new product launches, the 4K CH-S700-08-LB and VISERA S, reflect Olympus' commitment to advancing urological care and improving patient outcomes by providing enhanced visibility during surgical procedures.1 Teoh, J.YC., Kamat, A.M., Black, P.C. et al. Recurrence mechanisms of non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer —a clinical perspective. Nat Rev Urol 19, 280–294 (2022). https://doi.org/10.1038/s41585-022-00578-1 Image of Olympus' solution to the entire care pathway in bladder cancerTrue 4K Image Quality and 4K NBIExclusive full 4K image sensor generates 1 billion richer colors (ITU-R BT.2020 standard for a wide color gamut) and four times finer detail than previous generations in HD, enabling the surgeon to see the crucial details of the superficial layer of the mucosa that are important in urologic endoscopic surgery. NBI is a unique optical-digital technology that enhances visualization of mucosal structure and capillary patterns in the bladder using wavelengths that are highly absorbed by hemoglobin. It provides higher contrast and reveals significantly more tissue detail than WLI. This supports more precise lesion detection and resection.Unified Visualization that relevant for endourology proceduresWhile a dedicated system was conventionally required to perform BL observation, this product enables white light observation, NBI observation, and BL observation with a single camera head, eliminating the need for system switches. The BL offers brighter backgrounds with improved color tone and clear contrast in HD for better visibility, contributing to more effective resections. It meets different observation needs depending on the case and supports more efficient operation of the equipment at medical institutions.Effortless Usability and ErgonomicsOne-touch autofocus supports precise endoscopic visualization and can be activated on the camera head body. Fine texture details are clearly visible at the touch of a button, minimizing distractions and enabling continuous focus on the procedure.The product is manufactured by Olympus Medical Systems Corp.About OlympusAt Olympus, we are committed to Our Purpose of making people’s lives healthier, safer and more fulfilling.

俄亥俄州斯普林菲爾德居民祈禱政治風暴平息
(SeaPRwire) - (SPRINGFIELD, Ohio) — 在俄亥俄州斯普林菲爾德的安靜角落，遠離政治家和記者、警官和新安裝的監控攝像頭的鼓聲，生活在那裡的人們正在喘口氣，祈禱並努力繼續生活。 在斯普林菲爾德學校的早晨炸彈掃描和近乎每天下午的媒體簡報之間，這個擁有 58,000 人的城市籠罩著一種居民們所說的不尋常、甚至令人毛骨悚然的寂靜。那是恐懼。那是困惑——對一夜之間變為全國憤怒的目標而感到沮喪。 牧師安迪·莫布利經營著這個城市南側的家庭需求公司食品儲藏室，他說人們躲在公眾視線之外。他說他們希望由前總統唐納·川普在上一週的總統辯論中散布關於該市合法海地移民吃家養寵物的不實傳言而引發的關注會消失。 川普和他的副總統競選搭檔、俄亥俄州初級參議員 JD 凡斯，利用吃貓的傳言來吸引人們對該市 15,000 名海地移民的關注，這些移民的到來填補了製造業、配送業和倉庫工作，給當地資源帶來了沉重壓力。 自共和黨候選人最初發表評論以來，二十多起炸彈威脅——大多來自試圖播下不和的境外勢力——導致該州派遣額外的州警，並在全市安裝監控攝像頭，以便重新開放學校和政府大樓。 “我們這裡有好人。共和黨人，民主黨人。他們都是好人，”莫布利週二說，當時食品儲藏室正在為不斷湧入尋求衣物和食物的客戶提供服務。 居民喬希·瓦萊說，這種情況令人不安。 “我們肯定需要答案，”這位 35 歲的工具和模具修理工說，他幾十年來一直住在斯普林菲爾德。“這影響了我的孩子、我的社區和我的鄰居。隨著炸彈威脅和大量湧入，每天都發生著新事物。而且這曾經是一個非常輕鬆的城鎮，你知道，它曾經只是俄亥俄州的一個小鎮。” 週二下午，瓦萊說話所在的斯普林菲爾德市政廳周圍區域基本處於寂靜狀態，直到州和地方官員舉行新聞發佈會才引起一陣短暫的活動。儘管數十名警官在斯普林菲爾德市學區內巡邏，但當地家庭仍然處於恐慌之中。官員們表示，週二，一所小學有 500 名學生中約有 200 名缺席。 儘管如此，還是有一些希望的跡象。 在市中心繁華的午餐時間，一家名為“斯普林菲爾德甜蜜之家”的商店櫥窗上裝飾著茶巾。一條印著“為斯普林菲爾德說好話——或者保持沉默”字樣的馬克杯和服裝商品線。 在城鎮的另一邊，一群孩子們的父母週二讓他們待在家裡，他們一起在臨時的檸檬水攤前玩耍，他們想賺點小錢。他們對一輛經過的肌肉車的引擎轟鳴聲感到興奮，而且當銷售速度很慢時，他們就會喝掉自己的商品。 大衛·格雷厄姆以“祈禱牛仔”的身份訪問危機中的社區，本週在斯普林菲爾德出現以示支持。他在臉書上發文說：“日程：祈禱、崇拜、見證、微笑、榮耀、尊重，”並附上了他在這個城市拍攝的照片，照片中他雙手握著一本打開的聖經，背景是新安裝的監控平台。他在附近貼的帶有愛心標語的小牌子上用黑色電工膠帶畫了一些線條，代表斯普林菲爾德人的心碎了。 他並不是唯一一個試圖幫助的人。一群來自該地區的兩黨市長週一與斯普林菲爾德市長羅伯·魯伊會面，以確定他們如何提供幫助——包括提供資源來解決海地人口增加及其語言障礙所引發的交通、醫療保健、社會服務和住房需求。 俄亥俄州首府哥倫布市的民主黨市長、美國市長大會主席安德魯·金瑟在一份聲明中表示：“全美國的市長將繼續站在斯普林菲爾德和其他所有城市一邊，這些城市正在努力負責任地解決移民人數增加的問題，我們可以在不失去對我們共同人性視線的情況下做到這一點。” 多年來，家庭需求公司被指定為喬治·H·W·布希總統的“一千點光明”之一，以表彰其對志願服務的奉獻。莫布利說，多年來，該組織一直幫助來到斯普林菲爾德的海地移民——為他們提供翻譯服務並為他們的租賃協議簽署保證。 他回憶起早在 2016 年，也就是川普當選的那一年，就與海地移民合作——儘管人口普查數據顯示，直到幾年前，人口一直保持在約 400 人。 “在 2016 年，我們開始簽訂合同。在疫情期間，我們一直在為海地社區做一些事情，”他說。“這一切都被人遺忘嗎？他們一直都在這裡，我們一直在處理這個問題，我們一直在請求兩屆政府幫助。直到現在這件事公之於眾，才沒有哪個政府幫助過我們。” 一位不願透露姓名的居民在市中心散步時表示，她不會讓這種情況打倒自己。 “這太幼稚了。太愚蠢了。只有一個蠢人參加辯論，就毀掉了這個社區的名聲。我想你知道我在說誰，”她說。 “他永遠不應該說那些話。那些指控完全沒有道理。我是在這個城鎮長大的，我將留在這裡，我沒有問題。”本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈，覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者，以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

Home365 Launches Profit Protect Plan to Enhance Real Estate Investment Predictability
Las Vegas, NV – September 20, 2024 – (SeaPRwire) – Home365, a property technology company, continues to support real estate investors with its established Profit Protect Plan, designed to enhance real estate investments by providing financial security and stability for investors. The Profit Protect Plan helps real estate investors safeguard their profits from unexpected costs such as vacancy, delinquency, and operational issues. It maximizes returns while minimizing risks. By using advanced proprietary software, the plan forecasts potential risks and prices them into an extensive coverage plan. If a tenant moves out, Home365 ensures a seamless transition by quickly finding a new tenant, handling turnover to get the property rent-ready, and covering the rent until the new tenant is in place so the owner doesn’t lose a dollar. “Real estate investors often worry about market volatility and operational risks,” said Daniel Shaked, chief executive officer of Home365. “At Home365, we designed the Profit Protect Plan to address these very concerns and help investors achieve their financial goals confidently.” Home365’s advanced software enhances transparency and communication by offering real-time insights, detailed financial reports, and updates on repair activities for clear property management.

班·尼莫
(SeaPRwire) - 當 Ben Nimmo 在 2014 年首次開始追蹤針對選舉的網路影響力行動時，他必須在 Twitter 上滾動瀏覽數小時，研究假帳戶網路如何試圖劫持黨派敘事。 十年後，人工智慧正在改變遊戲規則——不僅對於外國威脅行動者而言，而且對於那些努力反對他們的人來說也是如此。「關於壞人可能會如何使用人工智慧的對話很多，」Nimmo 說，他現在是 OpenAI（TIME 授權和技術合作夥伴）的主要威脅情報調查員。「我從《哈利波特》中引用最喜歡的一句話是：我們也可以使用魔法。」 Nimmo 領導一個團隊，試圖找出利用 ChatGPT 和其他 OpenAI 工具進行秘密影響力行動的外國和國內壞人。但他說，OpenAI 自己工具也讓他的團隊能夠前所未有地了解大型或可疑的活動模式。「您將其提供給模型，它會在幾分鐘內提供答案，」他說。「我們調查和分析這些東西的速度快了好幾個數量級。」 5 月份，OpenAI 宣布已移除 由 Nimmo 的團隊發現的，這些團隊位於俄羅斯、中國、伊朗和以色列。所有人都在試圖利用該公司的 AI 工具操縱輿論。 2016 年，俄羅斯發起了一項大規模行動干預美國總統大選，從中吸取的一個重要教訓是，影響力行動「有點像浴室裡的黴菌，」Nimmo 說。「它們在黑暗中滋生，當沒有人查看或清理它們時，它們會蓬勃發展。」現在，他表示，試圖影響選舉的壞人可能正在使用不同的策略。「操作員似乎故意試圖被抓，以播下恐懼，擔心可能會有數千或數百萬個像他們一樣的人在挑起混亂，」他說，儘管這些行動中的大多數本身幾乎沒有獲得任何牽引力。專家表示，目標是讓人們不信任所有信息。 「深吸一口氣並保持警覺，但最重要的是要保持冷靜，」Nimmo 建議。「是的，這將是忙碌的一年。只要專注於證據並提出問題，它真的去過任何地方嗎？」本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈，覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者，以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

The world’s first commercial copper die-cast rotor for railway traction motors
TOKYO, Sep 19, 2024 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Hitachi Industrial Products, Ltd. ("Hitachi Industrial Products") has commercialized the world's first(1) copper die-cast(2) rotor(3) for railway traction motors as light weight of rotor. By adding weight-reduction technology to the high-efficiency technologies that Hitachi Industrial Products already possesses, we will contribute to further energy savings and reduced environmental impact of railway vehicle operation.Internal structure of traction motor with copper die-cast rotorTo further reduce the weight of rotors, a component of traction motors, Hitachi Industrial Products has developed a copper die-cast rotor for railway traction motors.The copper die-cast rotor is manufactured by die-casting copper, a conductor, and is approximately 15 kg lighter in weight than conventional rotors in which copper bars and end rings(4) are brazed together ("copper bar type"). Going forward, this new rotor will be applied to railway projects.(1) According to our research (using copper die-cast rotors in traction motors for railway vehicles)(2) Die casting: A casting method in which molten metal is poured into a mold, and shaped under pressure.(3) Rotor: A rotating part that constitutes a traction motor. Here, this refers to a squirrel-cage rotor.(4) End ring: A ring material that electrically connects and shorts both ends of the rotor conductor copper bars. Copper or brass is applied.Development BackgroundHitachi Industrial Products' conventional lineup of traction motor rotors consists of two types: the copper bar type, which is constructed by inserting a rod-shaped copper bar into a slot in the iron core, and the aluminum die-casting type, which is manufactured by die-casting an aluminum conductor.In order to contribute to the realization of a carbon-neutral society, we are promoting the improvement of the efficiency of traction motors.For our highly efficient products, we use copper bar type rotor conductors made of copper material, which has lower losses than aluminum.To achieve both efficiency and weight reduction, we considered adopting the copper die-casting, and could reduce the number of parts by simplifying the structure while maintaining the efficiency achieved by using copper material. However, because the melting point of copper (approximately 1086degC) is higher than that of aluminum (approximately 660degC), the temperature of the molten copper becomes very high, making it extremely difficult to cast with good quality. In addition, because the rotor is intended for traction motors for railway, die-casting into larger rotors is necessary, which was an issue.By applying the aluminum die-casting technology it has cultivated to copper, repeatedly prototyping and verifying copper die-cast rotors over several years, Hitachi Industrial Products established suitable design and verification methods for railway vehicle traction motors, developed and commercialized high-quality copper die-cast rotors.Exhibitionat "InnoTrans 2024, the International Railway Technology Trade Fair"The copper die-cast rotor will be exhibited at the International Railway Technology Trade Fair - InnoTrans 2024, which will be held in Berlin, Germany from Tuesday, September 24th to Friday, September 27th, 2024.
