Determining a property of a measured peak pattern having at least one peak includes extracting measured peak parameters from the measured peak pattern, and determining deviations of the measured peak parameters from reference values of a reference peak pattern. The reference peak pattern is represented by a spring model, with peak parameters being represented by corresponding springs. Determining a property of a measured peak pattern also includes determining a deformation energy necessary for d...

In a radiation protection arrangement for an x-ray diagnostics installation, at least one x-ray impenetrable strap is pivotably seated at a carrier, this being movable along a guide rail via the carrier. A brake arrangement for the carrier is provided which at least impedes movement of the carrier along the guide rail when the component of the installation on which the radiation protection arrangement is carried is adjusted in position. At least two x-ray impenetrable straps can be provided, eac...

The invention relates to an apparatus for the controlled delivery or release of nitroglycerin to the human or animal skin, preferably in plaster form with a nitroglycerin-impermeable backing layer, a one or multiple-part reservoir containing a pressure sensitive adhesive nitroglycerin in uniform or irregular distribution and optionally a removable protective layer impermeable for nitroglycerin, the reservoir being produced using hot melt pressure sensitive adhesives with a processing temperature...

The invention relates to an apparatus for the release or delivery of substances from hot melt contact adhesives with uniform or irregular distribution of the substances, the hot melt contact adhesive having a processing temperature between 40.degree. and 80.degree. C., preferably between 40.degree. and 60.degree. C. and in particularly preferred manner between 40.degree. and 55.degree. C.; a process for the production of this apparatus; as well as the use of this apparatus in human and veterinar...
