  • Publication number: 20250134579
    Abstract: Provided herein is a method, apparatus, and system for precise dissection of soft tissue, and more particularly, to the use of a hand-worn device to facilitate dissection while providing tactile feedback to a wearer. Methods include receiving an indication of resistance between at least two leads; establishing a mode of operation based on the indication of resistance; receiving an indication of activation; and providing a current at a voltage and duty cycle based on the mode of operation established to at least one of the at least two leads for electrosurgery. The at least two leads of some embodiments include two electrosurgical devices, where receiving an indication of resistance between the two electrosurgical devices includes receiving an indication of infinite resistance between the two electrosurgical devices, and where the mode of operation is established as bipolar dissection between the two electrosurgical devices.

  • Patent number: 11559608
    Abstract: Described herein are methods and apparatus for constructing tissue replacements, such as bone replacements that may be used to repair damaged or missing segments of bone, such as may occur in wound repair or as a repair of a congenital anomaly. These methods involve a three-dimensional (3D) cell growth medium made from a yield stress material that allows cells and structures to be easily deposited and positioned.

  • Patent number: 11377634
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is an integrated assay system that can be used, for example, to monitor and screen cells in 3D culture. This system involves a 3D cell growth medium made from a yield stress material that allows cells to be deposited, e.g. by 3D printing, samples to be taken, and the extracellular environment manipulated.
