Abstract: A method for 3D imaging of a sample, in a vessel having a longitudinal axis orthogonal to a horizontal plane, includes capturing, by at least three cameras located at different positions around the vessel, respective 2D images of the sample. Each image comprises pixels having associated pixel values. The optical axis of a first camera is inclined or declined at a first angle relative to the horizontal plane, with the first angle being greater than or equal to zero degrees. The optical axis of a second camera is inclined or declined at a second, larger angle relative to the horizontal plane. The method also includes generating a 3D image of the sample based on the pixel values associated with the 2D image pixels, and one or more look-up tables that collectively indicate, for pixels in each image, expected paths for light traversing the vessel and the sample.

Abstract: Described herein are techniques to regulate the treatment of a culture of cells having cells corresponding to different cell categories. Some techniques may be used together with a cell imaging and incubation system including an imaging sensor configured to obtain an image of the culture and an incubator configured to incubate the culture. Regulation of treatment of the culture may be based on the processing of an image of the culture obtained by the imaging sensor of the system. The processing may include segmenting the image of the culture into multiple image segments by assigning individual pixels of the image to corresponding cell categories. According to some embodiments, the techniques include determining, based on the image segments, an amount of the culture corresponding to a particular cell category. The amount of the culture corresponding to the particular cell category may inform regulation of the treatment of the culture.

The fluid flow connection is coupled to the container and the needle assembly and allows the medicament to flow from the container to the needle assembly to be administered. The backflow prevention mechanism is associated with at least one of the container, the fluid flow connection, or the needle assembly and includes at least one flow restrictor to restrict a fluid from flowing from the needle assembly to the container.

Abstract: A method for detecting cytopathic effect (CPE) in a well sample includes generating a well image depicting a well containing cells and a medium (and possibly viruses), and pre-processing the well image at least by partitioning the well image into sub-images each corresponding to a different portion of the well. The method also includes, for each of some or all of the sub-images, determining, by analyzing the sub-image using a convolutional neural network, a respective score indicative of a likelihood that any cells in the portion of the well corresponding to the sub-image exhibit CPE. The method further includes determining a CPE status of the cells contained in the well based on the respective scores for the sub-images, and generating output data indicating the CPE status.
