Abstract: A computer-implemented method for determining a quantification of the deformation of the sample is implemented using a computer device in communication with a memory. The method includes receiving, by the computer device, a first image of the sample and a second image of the sample. The method also includes registering the first image to the second image using a warping function. The warping function maps a plurality of pixels in the first image to a plurality of pixels in the second image. A first displacement field for the sample is determined based on the warping function, where the first displacement field includes at least a portion of the warping function. A first quantification of the deformation of the sample is determined based at least in part on the displacement field.

Abstract: Devices and methods of altering protein concentrations in cerebrospinal fluid and/or brain interstitial fluid are disclosed. Devices include a support having at least one protease attached to the support. The device may further include a housing. Devices may be implantable for use in an in vivo active flow system or for use in an in vivo passive system. Devices may also be used in an ex vivo active flow system. Devices may also be used in a passive system to treat cerebrospinal fluid and/or brain interstitial fluid that is withdrawn, or in a passive system that is implanted surgically. Methods include contacting cerebrospinal fluid and/or brain interstitial fluid with a support including at least one protease attached to the support. Proteins contained in the cerebrospinal fluid and/or brain interstitial fluid are cleaved by the protease resulting in the reduction of protein in cerebrospinal fluid and/or brain interstitial fluid.

Abstract: Observing intracranial physiology includes inserting a bladder at least partially filled with a fluid into a subdural region of interest within a subject, wherein the bladder is coupled in flow communication with a means of indicating a pressure exerted on the bladder within the region of interest. Embodiments also include non-invasively interrogating the means of indicating to determine the pressure exerted on the bladder.
