Genesis of the scanning laser ophthalmoscope.... In the scanning device, the illumination is incident on a small spot of the fundus for a short time period, the illumination beam is displaced to the adjacent small spot, and this continues until the field of view of the fundus is covered. Simultaneously, with the spot of illumination, the scattered light is detected; the accumulation of all of the light from all of the illuminated spots forms the image of the fundus as seen on the display of the scanning laser ophthalmoscope. 7, record 1, English, - scanning%20laser%20ophthalmoscope

Scanning laser ophthalmoscopes produce high-contrast images even through narrow pupils. Using various color lasers, this method can [allow visualization of] particular structures of the retina noninvasively, i.e., without injection of a contrast agent. These structures include nerve fibers, drusen, nevi, and autofluorescent material. 8, record 1, English, - scanning%20laser%20ophthalmoscope

Tamper Resistance. Most computer systems allow the operator of the system to introduce new code, such as an operating system, that controls the system hardware at the most basic level. Other computer systems attempt to resist such introduction to some degree so as to insure security properties of the hardware and its data. These steps lead to some degree of tamper resistance. "Tamper proof" refers to ideally perfect tamper resistance. 3, record 2, English, - tamper%2Dproof%20touch%20pad
