A method for obtaining an index for non-invasively identifying NASH is provided. A NASH determination method comprising a method for acquiring free radical consumption speed information by non-invasively detecting a redox reaction in a liver of a test animal in real time, comprises a step (1) of obtaining free radical concentration data by applying a magnetic resonance method to the liver as a measurement target after administering a probe into a body; a step (2) of obtaining imaging information by processing the obtained free radical concentration data; and a step (3) of obtaining a free radical consumption speed by kinetically measuring the imaging information over time, and comprises a step of determining whether or not the test animal has NASH, based on the free radical consumption speed information obtained through application to the test animal.

A fine work assistance system is configured such that a parallel link mechanism is used for a slave manipulator activated by a master operation, and a precise motion for microsurgery or the like is performed by remote control. In a slave unit of a master-slave manipulator, the parallel link mechanism with multiple degrees of freedom is used for a link mechanism in which an end effector is movable with respect to a base. Moreover, a tip operation part is driving by a hydraulic driving mechanism such that a plurality of linear actuators supported by the base move one ends of links so as to move the end effector, and the slave unit is activated in response to a user operation on the master unit. This achieves the precise motion of the end effector and causes the end effector to perform operations for a precise work.

A diagnostic system comprises a spectral image shooting means that shoots a spectral image within a predetermined wavelength range in a body cavity and obtains spectral image data, an image processing means that obtains the spectral image data and calculates an indicator indicating an area having a high possibility of a diseased portion from the spectral image data, and a monitor on which the indicator is displayed, and wherein the image processing means calculates, as the indicator, a ratio between an accumulated value of intensity values of all spectral images in the predetermined wavelength range and an intensity value of spectral images in a particular wavelength band, for each coordinate in the spectral image.
