Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of coagulant or gellifying substances for administration into body sites with the aim of obtaining the temporary separation of said organs. The invention also relates to a method for the separation of body sites and a related administration kit using said substances.

Abstract: A motor function test system as well as to a method of acquisition and collection of the signals are processed into the corresponding parameters for a motor function test. In particular, the system and method relate to the quantification of the performance of a subject during the evaluation of balance as defined by the Tinetti test.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an analytical device (1) for cell cultures comprising a container (4) for cell cultures, a reservoir (2) for the storage of fresh culture medium for said cell cultures, pumping means (3) suitable to introduce said fresh culture medium into said container and to remove metabolised culture medium from the cell cultures of said of said container and a depositing device (5) suitable for depositing the metabolised culture medium removed from said container by means of said pumping means onto an analytical support (11).

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and an apparatus for processing images of biological tissues, in particular of human or animal origin. The metric quantification of a biological body part or tissue or of an abnormal material spot or aggregate contained therein is also performed by means of the invention method. The method according to the invention is applied in particular to the Computed Axial Tomography technique.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and an apparatus for processing images of irregularly shaped objects, such as biological specimens, in particular of human or animal origin, or images thereof. The metric quantification of a biological body part or tissue or of a material spot or aggregate of any origin which is contained therein is also performed by the present invention method. In particular, the method of the present invention is applied to the “confocal microscopy” technique. In particular, the present invention relates to a method of processing digital images including one or more objects to be quantified, the method including normalization of the digital images and quantization of the images to one bit.
