Publication number: 20220269763Abstract: The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for tailoring administration of aerosolized bioactive material. Aspects include communicating biological and subjective information to support formulation of personalized bioactive material compositions. Aerosolized bioactive materials can be administered to humans, via inhalation, using a vaporizer device which is engineered for real time data capture, and communication, with a software application and backend computational system. Smart vaporizer cartridges can be identified and their contents recalled. Based at least on contents, appropriate (e.g., precision) doses of bioactive material can be aerosolized and administered.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 22, 2022Publication date: August 25, 2022Inventors: G. Scott Lett, Jeffrey Humpherys, Ruth Fisher, Chosen Lee, Caleb McClain

Publication number: 20140310635Abstract: A biological sample such as a tissue section is stained with one or more quantum dots and possibly other fluorophores (total number of fluorophores N). A camera coupled to a microscope generates an image of the specimen at a plurality of different wavelengths within the emission spectral band of the N fluorophores. An analysis module calculates coefficients C1 . . . CN at each pixel which are related to the concentration of each of the individual fluorophores. Morphological processing instructions find biological structures. A display module displays quantitative analysis results to the user. The quantitative analysis display includes histograms of the biological structures, scatter plots of fluorophore concentrations, statistical data, spectral data, image data and still others.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 25, 2014Publication date: October 16, 2014Inventors: G. Scott Lett, Ned C. Haubein, Gary Pestano

Patent number: 8290236Abstract: A biological sample such as a tissue section is stained with one or more quantum dots and possibly other fluorophores (total number of fluorophores N). A camera coupled to a microscope generates an image of the specimen at a plurality of different wavelengths within the emission spectral band of the N fluorophores. An analysis module calculates coefficients C1 . . . CN at each pixel from the set of images and reference spectral data for the N fluorophores. The coefficients C1 . . . CN are related to the concentration of each of the individual fluorophores at each pixel location. Morphological processing instructions find biological structures, e.g., cells, cellular components, genes, etc., in the images of the specimen. Quantitative analysis is performed on the identified biological structures. A display module displays the quantitative analysis results to the user, along with images of the specimen. The images can include images constructed from one or more of the coefficients C1 . . . CN.Type: GrantFiled: June 3, 2011Date of Patent: October 16, 2012Assignee: Ventana Medical Systems, Inc.Inventors: G. Scott Lett, Ned C. Haubein, Gary Pestano
