Organs Please
The Perfusion Bath for Tubular Organs (PBTO) has been designed for studying intraluminal perfused tubular organs such as trachea, atrial or venous blood vessels, intestines and vas deferens. Individual solutions can be used for intraluminal perfusion and extraluminal superfusion. Maximum tissue length is 55 mm.
The tissue bath is a jacketed Plexiglas bath. The holder for the cannulae can be removed from the main bath for the cannulation of the segment of tubular organs. The cannulae are fixed on sliding holders to adjust to organs of different lengths, up to 50 mm. The intraluminal pressure is controlled by one of two afterload systems available: one for low pressure applications (0 to 30 mmHg) and the second for high pressure applications (0 to 300 mmHg).
*If you are not familiar with PMR 80/10/10 or raw feeding in general, please do your research to ensure your pup is getting the right balance. There are raw feeding calculators that you can find online to figure out the right amount your pup needs based on their age, weight + activity level.
The cells that make up our bodies organize to form tissues, and tissues form organs in an even higher level of organization. Organs within the body perform specific functions and are very important in keeping us alive.
The importation of fresh (chilled or frozen) organs, glands, extracts, or secretions derived from ruminants or swine, originating in any region where foot-and-mouth disease exists, as designated in 94.1, except for pharmaceutical or biological purposes under conditions prescribed by the Administrator in each instance, is prohibited.
The use of elective ventilation might increase the availability and viability of organs, but it would involve keeping patients alive beyond the point where they would normally be allowed to die, which the public might have difficulty accepting. Also, families might be more likely to veto donation if they are not happy that their dead relative has been electively ventilated.
The main impediment is actually apathy, or laziness, because most people would be happy for their organs to be used but never get round to joining the register; only 29% of the population is on it. In this sense, a move to presumed consent, where organs are taken unless people specifically opt out, might be helpful. However, a presumed consent system would still not be optimal if families frequently vetoed donation.
The Human Tissues and Organs Research Resource (HTORR) provides the biomedical research community with human tissues for research. It is a leading source of human tissues, cells and organs for scientific research and is comprised of a nationwide network of 130 tissue source sites over 45 states, including organ procurement organizations, tissue banks, post-surgery and post-mortem donors. HTORR is supported by Office of Research Infrastructure Programs (ORIP) and other NIH institutes including NIAMS. The National Disease Research Interchange (NDRI), a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization, is the awarding organization for the HTORR Program (Grant number: U42 OD011158).
To request biospecimens, interested investigators complete a simple application process and, once approved, their requests are fulfilled when matching donor tissues become available. HTORR can also provide a Letter of Support (LOS) and budgetary information for NIH grant applications. For information about how to set up a prospective tissue recovery or to request a LOS, please email the NDRI Scientific Services Department at research@ndriresource.org. As one of NIH funding agencies supporting the HTORR Program, NIAMS-funded investigators will be prioritized over investigators from institutes that do not support the program.
Registering to be a donor means you agree to donate your organs, eyes and tissues to help others in need after your death. It is a legal authorization for donation and if you are over the age of 18, your lifetime decision to be a donor cannot be overturned by another person. This ensures your decision will be honored.
If you decide to remove your name from the registry, please access your record here to update your status. If you believe there has been a printing error with your license or ID card, please contact info@donatelifetexas.org to initiate an inquiry.
Medical image segmentation is a prerequisite for many clinical applications including disease diagnosis, surgical planning and computer assisted interventions. Due to the challenges in obtaining expert-level accurate, densely annotated multi-organ dataset, the existing datasets for multi-organ segmentation either have small number of samples, or only have annotations of a few organs instead of all organs, which are termed as partially labeled data. There exist previous attempts to develop label efficient segmentation method to make use of these partially labeled dataset for improving the performance of multi-organ segmentation. However, most of these methods suffer from the limitation that they only use the labeled information in the dataset without taking advantage of the large amount of unlabeled data. To this end, we propose a context-aware voxel-wise contrastive learning method to take full advantage of both labeled and unlabeled data in partially labeled dataset for an improvement of multi-organ segmentation performance. Experimental Results demonstrated that our proposed method achieved superior performance than other state-of-the-art methods.
If you are not already a donor, please fill out the fields below. Fields marked with an * are required fields. When you register as an organ, eye and tissue donor, your registration remains in effect unless you change it. If you do not have an email address, please call 303-329-4747 during normal business hours to receive a hard copy form. Please be sure to complete all the steps in the process before leaving the site. After you register, you will receive an email confirming your registration and only one subsequent email you may forward to family and friends. For more information on what it means to join the donor registry, please visit our FAQ page.
Just as the name implies, Theatre Pipe Organs were pipe organs built for theatres. From the early days of the nickelodeon until shortly after the advent of talkies, almost all Theatre Organs were installed in our Grand Movie Palaces. In England, organs continued being installed in theatre until well into the 1940s.
Some theatre organs remain in their original homes. Famous examples include the dual-console Wurlitzer at the Radio City Music Hall in New York or the highly embellished organ at the Alabama Theatre in Birmingham AL. But original installations remain in small theatres like the Ironwood Theatre in Michigan's Upper Penninsula or the Ellen Theatre in Bozeman Montana.
This map has just been activated in mid-October 2015. Some of the organ, especially in Britain and Australia, need updated addresses for the map to function. If you have good address information for any instruments, please let us know using the 'add/update' information below.
Organ donation provides an opportunity to give life and health to another individual. The decision to be an organ donor should be an informed one. Please inform the hospital staff if you are an organ donor. For information and a donor card, please contact:Beth Israel Deaconess Hospital-Milton Patient Advocateor Quality Management Department617-696-4600, ext. 1360/1830or the New England Organ Bank at1-800-446-NEOB
