Abstract: A healthcare worker smart visor. The smart visor comprises a radio transceiver, a non-transitory memory, a camera, a processor communicatively coupled to the radio transceiver, the non-transitory memory, and the camera, an optical visor, a head-up display projector that is communicatively coupled to the processor and that is operable to project an image on an inside surface of the optical visor, a headband retaining the radio transceiver, the non-transitory memory, the camera, the processor, the optical visor, and the head-up display projector, and a smart visor application stored in the non-transitory memory that, when executed by the processor performs two-factor authentication of a healthcare worker, transmits a request for current indications of healthcare equipment via the radio transceiver to the healthcare equipment based on the identity of the healthcare equipment, and presents the current indications on the inside surface of the optical visor via the head-up display.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to method of obtaining high purity glucans, in particular yeast glucans with immunomodulatmy properties, including vaccine adjuvant properties for the use as adjuvant in vaccines.

Abstract: According to some aspects, a method of identifying a boundary of a portion of a vasculature is provided, the vasculature comprising a geometric representation of a plurality of vessels. The method comprises logically dividing the geometric representation into a plurality of regions, determining at least one feature within each of the plurality of regions, and defining the boundary of the portion of the vasculature based, at least in part, on the at least one feature determined within each of the plurality of regions, wherein the boundary forms a volume defining a separation between inside and outside of the portion of the vasculature. According to some aspects, a method of performing vascular analysis using a geometric representation of a plurality of vessels of the vasculature is provided.

Abstract: In one aspect, a method of detecting at least on feature associated with a blood vessel in at least one image of at least one blood vessel using a matched filter adapted to respond to the at least one feature is provided. The method comprises applying a scale detection filter to selected voxels in the at least one image to determine a scale for the matched filter at each of the selected voxels, determining an orientation for the matched filter at each of the selected voxels, wherein determining the orientation is assisted by using the scale determined at each of the selected voxels, applying the matched filter at each of the selected voxels at the scale and the orientation determined at each of the selected voxels to obtain a filter response at each of the selected voxels, and analyzing the filter response at each of the selected voxels to determine if the respective voxel corresponds to the at least one feature.
