A diagnosis assistance device includes at least one microphone that collects voice around an affected area, and at least one processor. The at least one processor determines, based on image data that is data of a captured image of the affected area, whether the affected area is malignant, and stores in a memory the voice collected by the microphone when determination is made that the affected area is malignant.

Diagnosis assistance device, diagnosis assistance method, and recording medium

A device includes a processor which controls a display operation of a display unit. The processor acquires a specified portion specified by a first user operation in an object image including an object to be imaged, sets an enlargement reference point in the object image according to the specified portion with respect to which a part of the object image is enlarged when performing enlargement display control, and extracts a display target range from the object image as the part of the object image to be enlarged. The display target range includes both the enlargement reference point and the specified portion, and the enlargement reference point is set so that the representative point approaches a middle of the display area in response to each input of a second user operation for performing enlargement display control, until the representative point coincides with the middle of the display area.

A switching power supply circuit preventing coil current reversal, while minimizing a current consumption and speeding up a switching frequency is provided. The switching power supply circuit under a synchronous rectification system compares a feedback voltage and a reference voltage by a comparator and, based on the results of the comparison, alternately turns on and off a main switching element and a subordinate switching element to convert a direct current input voltage into a direct current output voltage. The circuit includes: an on-time generation circuit which, based on the input voltage and the output voltage, defines the on-times of the main switching element and the subordinate switching element; and a switching signal generation unit which, based on the output signals of the comparator and the on-time generation circuit, generates switching signals for controlling the on/off operation of the main switching element and the subordinate switching element.

A training supporting system has a training supporting apparatus and an exercise form analyzing apparatus, the both apparatuses being connected to each other through a communication network. The training supporting apparatus is worn on the arm of a user and measures acceleration rates of motion of the user's body where the apparatus is fitted on, at least in the three directions along X-, Y- and Z-axes, while the user is walking or running. Receiving the measured acceleration rates from the training supporting apparatus through the communication network, the exercise form analyzing apparatus analyzes an exercise form including balance between arm swing and foot landing, and sends back the analysis result of the exercise form to the training supporting apparatus through the communication network.
