Abstract: An imaging system and method acquires non-contrast images of a region of interest in a body and determines an entrance criterion based on the non-contrast images. The entrance criterion dictates conditions in which to begin acquiring contrast imaging exposures of the region of interest. An amount of a contrast agent is measured in one or more locations in the imaged body subsequent to acquiring the non-contrast images. The system and method determine that the one or more conditions of the entrance criterion are met based on the amount of the contrast agent that is measured in the imaged body, and acquire one or more contrast images of the region of interest in the imaged body responsive to determining that the one or more conditions of the entrance criterion are met.

Abstract: An example flow cell includes a patterned substrate having an active region and a bonding region that at least partially surrounds the active region. The active region includes first depressions defined in a layer of the patterned substrate, surface chemistry positioned in the first depressions, and first interstitial regions surrounding the first depressions. The bonding region includes second depressions defined in the layer and second interstitial regions surrounding the second depressions. An adhesive is positioned over the second depressions and over the second interstitial regions. A cover is attached to the adhesive such that a flow channel is defined between a portion of the cover and the active region.

Abstract: A micro-optic cell design with a regularly spaced micro-lens array, having a series of randomly positioned lenslets that have been digitally overwritten, wherein the overwritten area is greater than 0 up to 100 percent fill, and wherein a light shaping diffuser pattern is placed on top of the lenslets of the micro-optic cell.

Abstract: An array of microstructures or frustums on a substrate for reducing glare for electronic device displays or windows. The microstructures are designed to nearly perfectly align with the pixels on the display to avoid adverse viewing effects, such as Moiré effects. Substantially all light from the environment illuminating the front side of the film containing the microstructures from all angles is not reflected to the primary viewer (often viewing at an angle normal to the film). Light illuminating the microstructure from the environment will reflect off the microstructures at angles greater than a defined threshold outside the primary viewers field of view. Thus, glare to the primary viewer is minimized while glare to other views who view from other angles than the primary viewer is increased. This increased glare for other viewers adds privacy for the viewing by the primary viewer.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed that record quantifiable data for physical exams that assess neurological function. A system includes four main components. First, it employs a flexible and customizable procedure administration and documentation system developed and deployed on a mobile platform to aid in the identification, administration, configuration, and instruction of a suite of procedures for assessing different aspects of vestibular health. Second, it leverages commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) hardware with integrated sensor technology to allow non-vestibular experts to conduct assessment procedures by imposing constraints that ensure accurate and safe administration of VF assessment procedures. Next, it utilizes a gaming engine to both capture patient responses and to enable the accurate visual presentation of required stimuli for each of its assessments. Lastly, it leverages database storage and retrieval to visualize and aggregate data from multiple assessments and over many trials.

Abstract: Conductive material grids or lines embedded or partially embedded in a transparent substrate of a solar cell. The grids or lines can have a higher conductivity than the anode or they can have the same conductivity. The grids or lines increase the volume of the anode and, thus decrease sheet resistance of the same.

Abstract: The present weighted exercise vest is comprised of right and left front panels connected to a back panel by elastic sides and webbing straps on top. A plurality of weights are removably but snugly received in elastic pockets arranged on the front panels and the back panel. The weights are securely retained by elastic flaps over the pockets. Each panel is preferably constructed of spandex inner and outer sheets for a snug fit, rubber padding sheets between the spandex inner and outer sheets for cushioning impact, and a strong webbing sheet between the rubber padding sheets for attaching the pockets and straps. The webbing sheet generally spans the entire area of each panel for maximum durability. Each weight includes a core comprised of 90% lead shot embedded in 10% silicone rubber for providing the necessary mass, but also enough flexibility to bend with the user's body. The core is surrounded by a silicone gel shell for cushioning impacts and further improving comfort.
