  • Patent number: 11972845
    Abstract: A client device presents a user interface including a macro entry field for defining a macro indicator from a plurality of macro indicators and transmits the macro indicator. A server stores a database of macro-based diagnoses, each macro-based diagnosis associated with one or more elements of an accession, and one or more specimens associated with the accession. The server also receives the macro indicator from the client device, retrieves an initial diagnosis from the database of macro-based diagnoses responsive to the macro indicator, and transmits the initial diagnosis. The client device, receives the initial diagnosis, pre-populates one or more text boxes on the user interface with information from the initial diagnosis, and enables the user to edit the pre-populated one or more text boxes.

  • Publication number: 20160168942
    Abstract: A deployable baffle apparatus installed in a casing to isolate sections of a wellbore during stimulation treatments. The deployable baffle is inserted and positioned within a wellbore by a setting tool. To deploy the deployable baffle, the setting tool expands an expandable section of the deployable baffle such that the outer wall of the expandable section contacts an inner surface of the casing. Once the deployable baffle is deployed, the deployable baffle is detached from the setting tool and the tool sting may be repositioned for other downhole operations or removed from the wellbore. The deployable baffle includes an inner baffle for receiving an untethered object such that a seal is formed between the inner baffle and the untethered object, permitting isolation of adjacent wellbore sections. Any or all of the deployable baffle and the untethered object may be made of a dissolvable material.
