  • Publication number: 20240209302
    Abstract: Ex vivo analysis can be performed by mounting a portion of live tissue resected from a patient on a sample platform. Using the sample platform, the resected tissue portion can be positioned within a perfusion chamber. Perfusate is flowed through the perfusion chamber and into contact with the resected tissue portion such that diffusion of oxygen occurs between the perfusate and the resected tissue portion. During the flowing, the resected tissue portion maintains a competent immune system. Drugs can be added to the perfusate flow to ascertain the effect on the tissue. The sample platform is designed to be removable from the perfusion chamber for analysis of the tissue by imaging or other investigation techniques, for experimental treatment, or for any other purpose. After removal, the sample platform can be returned to the perfusion chamber for continued viability of the tissue.

  • Publication number: 20240205490
    Abstract: Computing platforms and methods for dynamic presentation of graphical and video content are disclosed. Exemplary implementations may: provide, in a static browsing state, a static image associated with underlying video content; in response to an extended focus on the static image for a first threshold amount of time, expand a visual tile to a widescreen aspect ratio while remaining in the static browsing state; after a second threshold amount of time, initiate a dwell browsing state in which dwell tile content is provided in the expanded visual tile, while other content remains in the static browsing state; in response to a determination that the playback device supports a dwell video mode, play a video asset within the expanded visual tile; and in response to a determination that the playback device does not support the dwell video mode, provide an alternate non-video visual asset within the expanded visual tile.
