Abstract:
A target location for a therapeutic intervention is determined in a subject with a neurological disorder. The target location is selected within at least one resting state network (RSN) map according to a predetermined criterion for the neurological disorder. The at least one RSN map includes a plurality of functional voxels within a brain of the subject, and each functional voxel of the plurality of functional voxels is associated with a probability of membership in an RSN. Instructions are transmitted to a treatment system that cause operation to be performed on the selected target location.
Abstract:
Among the various aspects of the present disclosure is the provision of a noninvasive and localized brain liquid biopsy using focused ultrasound. Briefly, therefore, the present disclosure is directed to methods and systems to identify brain lesion or tumor characteristics without the need for a solid brain biopsy.
Abstract:
A method and system are provided for analyzing electromagnetic brain signals such as EEG and ECoG signals in a subject in real time and which avoids the need for time-intensive retrospective analysis of brain activity in the subject. This can be applied to all complex systems with multiple fluctuating signals to identify and predict significant events.
Abstract:
Methods, apparatuses, computer program products, devices and systems are described that include accepting one or more blood vessel sleeve dimensions based on blood vessel data from an individual; and making a rapid-prototyped blood vessel sleeve at least partly based on the one or more blood vessel sleeve dimensions.
Abstract:
Embodiments include an apparatus, a medical device, a method and a system. The medical device includes an ellipsoidally shaped reflector having a first focus and a second focus. The ellipsoidally shaped reflector also provides a translational coupling of electromagnetic energy from the first focus to the second focus. The medical device also includes a controllable electromagnetic energy source aligned to emit a non-biologically emitted electromagnetic energy in a proximity to the first focus.
Abstract:
Bone cages are disclosed including devices for biocompatible implantation. The structures of bone are useful for providing living cells and tissues as well as biologically active molecules to subjects.
Abstract:
One aspect relates to a technique for. analyzing at least one condition of at least one fluid(s) and/or element(s) as contained within an individual. The technique can include detecting a failure to maintain a regimen for the individual based at least in part on the analyzing the at least one condition of the at least one fluid(s) and/or element(s) as contained within the individual.
