Abstract: A device for ablating target tissue of a patient with an ablative fluid is provided. An elongate shaft includes a proximal portion and a distal portion, and at least one fluid delivery element is attached to the distal portion. The device can be configured to ablate the duodenal mucosa of a patient while avoiding damage to the duodenal adventitial tissue. Systems and methods of treating target tissue are also provided.

Abstract: Methods and apparatuses (including systems and devices), including computer-implemented methods for segmenting, correcting and/or modifying a three-dimensional (3D) model of a subject's oral cavity to determine individual components such as teeth, gingiva, tongue, palate, etc., that may be selective and/or collectively digitally manipulated. In some implementations, artificial intelligence uses libraries of labeled 2D images and 3D dental models to learn how to segment a 3D dental model of a subject's oral cavity using 2D images, height map and/or other data and projection values that relate the 2D images to the 3D model. As noted herein, the dental classes can include a variety of intra-oral and extra-oral objects and can be represented as binary values, discrete values, a continuum of height map data, etc. In some implementations, several dental classes are predicted concurrently.

Abstract: A system for treating a patient comprises an elongate shaft, an expandable reservoir and a fluid delivery assembly. The elongate shaft comprises a distal portion and is constructed and arranged to be introduced into a gastrointestinal lumen. The expandable reservoir is positioned on the elongate shaft distal portion and is constructed and arranged to receive a first fixed amount of ablative fluid and to deliver a first thermal dose of energy to a first portion of target tissue. The fluid delivery assembly is in fluid communication with the expandable reservoir and is constructed and arranged to deliver the first fixed amount of ablative fluid to the expandable reservoir. Devices and methods for treating tissue of a patient are also provided.

Abstract: Technology for managing a player session at a gaming table is disclosed. A table management system receives identifying information of a player seated at the gaming table transmitted by a mobile device associated with the player. The identifying information includes a seating position of the player at the gaming table, the seating position determined by the mobile device through interaction with a locating device placed at the seating position at the gaming table. The table management system generates the player session for the player for playing a wagering game at the gaming table using the identifying information of the player transmitted by the mobile device.

Abstract: A system may manage a first prize pool based on a plurality of wagers placed at a plurality of electronic gaming machines (EGMs) for a game of chance or skill. A second prize pool may be managed based on a plurality of back-bet wagers placed at the plurality of user computational devices for an outcome of the game of chance or skill. An award can be distributed from the first prize pool in connection with the game of chance or skill to a player at one of the plurality EGMs and an award from the second prize pool can be automatically distributed to a player at one of the user computational devices in response to distributing the award from the first prize pool.

Abstract: A system configured to manage progressive pools can include a processor circuit and a memory coupled to the processor circuit. The memory includes machine-readable instructions that, when executed by the processor circuit, cause the system to perform operations. The operations include determining to cease operation of a first progressive game on a first electronic gaming machines (“EGM”). The first progressive game can be associated with a first progressive pool. The operations can further include, allocating a portion of the first progressive pool to a second progressive pool associated with a second progressive game based on a characteristic of the first progressive game and a characteristic of the second progressive game. The operations further include, responsive to determining to cease operation of the first progressive game, transmitting a message to the first EGM, the message including instructions to cease operation of the first progressive game.
