Abrégé
Provided is a system and method for improving ex vivo heart perfusion in a working mode or a resting mode configuration and for improving in vivo heart perfusion. The system can reduce myocardial energy consumption in a working mode configuration by unloading the perfusate in the left ventricle using a left ventricular assist pump (LVAD) that is synchronized with cardiac function of a heart. Disclosed methods achieve or simulate physiological coronary perfusion in a resting mode configuration, without perfusing the left ventricle, by artificially generating aortic pressure that may be synchronized with cardiac function.

A drug delivery system is provided and includes an electronic stimulation implant, a drug delivery pump, and a computing device coupled to the electronic stimulation implant and the drug delivery- pump. The electronic stimulation implant is configured to be implanted adjacent to a nerve and/or blood vessel of a subject.

The processor activates, when instructed, the drug delivery pump to deliver a therapeutic agent to the subject via the blood brain barrier once its permeability has been suitably adjusted. The processor further can instruct the electronic stimulation implant to adjust or cease the first stimulation energy- once drug delivery- is complete to reduce the permeability' of the blood brain barrier.

Technologies as described herein are directed towards generating optimized stent designs for treatment of tubular anatomical structures. In an exemplary computing system, the system obtains imaging data comprising images representative of anatomical structures. The system then generates a plurality of models based upon the imaging data. The models are then clustered based upon similar characteristics of the models. Certain fit parameters are applied to the models in each cluster and an optimized stent shape is generated for each cluster, wherein each optimized stent shape is representative of the models within the cluster.

Abrégé
A cognitive illusion of ownership over a proxy extremity (e.g. a hand) is provided by discordant touch and visual information to a user. While the user feels the touch on their real extremity, they see a corresponding touch on the proxy extremity. The user's internally modeled reality is then updated to move the felt location of the real extremity to the seen location of the proxy extremity. As a result, the user embodies the proxy extremity, thereby disembodying the real extremity. Pain associated with medical procedures performed on the real extremity is then mitigated. And because an epileptic brain is less stringent when resolving conflict between what is seen and what is felt, correlations in time or space can shift attribution of the sensation of the felt touch on the user's real extremity to the location of the proxy extremity. This can be helpful in treating and/or diagnosing epilepsy.
