Computer integrated testing for the transport refrigeration systems industry.

This is a study of a state of the art implementation of a new computer integrated testing (CIT) facility within a company that designs and manufactures transport refrigeration systems. The aim was to use state of the art hardware, software and planning procedures in the design and implementation of three CIT systems. Typical CIT system components include data acquisition (DAQ) equipment, application and analysis software, communication devices, computer-based instrumentation and computer technology. It is shown that the introduction of computer technology into the area of testing can have a major effect on such issues as efficiency, flexibility, data accuracy, test quality, data integrity and much more. Findings reaffirm how the overall area of computer integration continues to benefit any organisation, but with more recent advances in computer technology, communication methods and software capabilities, less expensive more sophisticated test solutions are now possible. This allows more organisations to benefit from the many advantages associated with CIT. Examples of computer integration test set-ups and the benefits associated with computer integration have been discussed.

Software livre e de código aberto para avaliação de imagens de angiotomografia de coronárias

FUNDAMENTO: A estandardização do padrão de imagens utilizada dentro da medicina foi realizada em 1993 por meio do padrão DICOM (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine). Diversos exames utilizam esse padrão e cada vez mais são necessários softwares capazes de manipular esse tipo de imagem, porém esses softwares geralmente não têm o formato livre e de código aberto, e isso dificulta o seu ajuste para os mais diferentes interesses. OBJETIVO: Desenvolver e validar um software livre e de código aberto capaz de manipular imagens DICOM de exames de angiotomografia de coronárias. MÉTODOS: Desenvolvemos e testamos o software intitulado ImageLab na avaliação de 100 exames selecionados de forma randômica por meio de um banco de dados. Foram realizadas 600 análises divididas por dois observadores utilizando o ImageLab e um outro software comercializado junto a aparelhos de tomografia computadorizada Philips Brilliance, na avaliação da presença de lesões e placas coronarianas nos territórios do Tronco da Coronária Esquerda (TCE) e na Artéria Descendente Anterior (ADA). Para avaliar as concordâncias intraobservador, interobservadores e intersoftware, utilizamos concordância simples e estatística Kappa. RESULTADOS: As concordâncias observadas entre os softwares foram em geral classificadas como substancial ou quase perfeitas na maioria das comparações. CONCLUSÃO: O software ImageLab concordou com o software Philips na avaliação de exames de angiotomografia de coronárias especialmente em pacientes sem lesões, com lesões inferiores a 50% no TCE e inferiores a 70% na ADA. A concordância para lesão >70% na ADA foi menor, porém isso também é observado quando se utiliza o padrão de referência anatômico.
