متن کاملEffects of the Different Light-Source Distances from the Skin Surface in Conventional Photother-apy

Healthy jaundiced neonates undergoing phototherapy were randomized into two groups. The distance between the light-source and the newborn's skin was 20 and 40 centimeters (G20;...

متن کاملRevisiting Pentland's estimator of light source direction

It is shown that, under the assumptions used in the derivation of the method, the estimate of source direction is erroneous. Specific...
