Improved Sensitivity To Fluorescence For Cancer Detection In Wide-Field Image-Guided Neurosurgery, Michael Jermyn, Yoann Gosselin, Pablo A. Valdes, Mira Sibai, Kolbein Kolste

Dartmouth Scholarship

In glioma surgery, Protoporphyrin IX (PpIX) fluorescence may identify residual tumor that could be resected while minimizing damage to normal brain. We demonstrate that improved sensitivity for wide-field spectroscopic fluorescence imaging is achieved with minimal disruption to the neurosurgical workflow using an electron-multiplying charge-coupled device (EMCCD) relative to a state-of-the-art CMOS system. In phantom experiments the EMCCD system can detect at least two orders-of-magnitude lower PpIX. Ex vivo tissue imaging on a rat glioma model demonstrates improved fluorescence contrast compared with neurosurgical fluorescence microscope technology, and the fluorescence detection is confirmed with measurements from a clinically-validated spectroscopic probe. Greater PpIX …

Regulating Audiovisual On-Demand Services. New Solutions For The ‘New Media’?, Katarzyna Klafkowska-Waśniowska

internetowy Kwartalnik Antymonopolowy i Regulacyjny (internet Quarterly on Antitrust and Regulation)

The article covers the Polish implementation of the Audiovisual Media Services Directive (AVMSD) concerning on-demand audiovisual media services. Three main issues are discussed: the definition and delineation of on-demand audiovisual services as well as rules on the protection of minors and on the promotion of European works. The concept of ‘on-demand audiovisual media service’ provokes many questions as to the scope of its regulation, particularly when it comes to the separation of the audiovisual media sector from electronic press. The author discusses the ‘comparability’ criterion, as a part of the definition of a ‘programme’, and the lack of the express …

Public Perceptions Of The Stigmatization Of Wrongly Convicted Individuals: Findings From Semi-Structured Interviews, Isabella M. Blandisi, Kimberley A. Clow, Rosemary Ricciardelli

The Qualitative Report

Many exonerees report stigmatizing experiences and difficulties securing gainful employment post-incarceration. Although researchers have begun to investigate public perceptions of wrongful conviction, there remains a dearth of knowledge about public perceptions of exonerees. To provide insight into how the public perceives exonerees, face-to-face interviews were conducted with members (n=30) of a suburban city in South Central Ontario. Data analysis included a constructed grounded approach to reveal emergent themes in the transcripts. All interviewees acknowledged that wrongly convicted individuals are stigmatized by the public and that this can have negative effects in many of their lived experiences. In addition, findings of …

Self-Promotion Of Audiovisual Media Providers, Elżbieta Czarny-Drożdżejko

internetowy Kwartalnik Antymonopolowy i Regulacyjny (internet Quarterly on Antitrust and Regulation)

The article describes rules on the issue of self-promotion in the European Convention on Transfrontier Television, in the Audiovisual Media Services Directive and in the Polish Broadcasting Act. Self-promotion is a complex matter as it can take different forms such as advertisements of products of the media service providers, trailers and sometimes even prevue. The legislator is not entirely consistent in the terminology used and does not differentiate this phenomenon. Self-promotion is a form of commercial communication intended to encourage the promotion of goods or services of the sender. Self-promotion is thus subject to all provisions governing the form and …

Ex Parte Seizures And The Defend Trade Secrets Act, Eric Goldman

Washington and Lee Law Review Online

Congress is considering the Defend Trade Secrets Act, which would create a new federal trade secret civil cause of action. The Act includes a quirky and unprecedented ex parte procedure for trade secret owners to obtain a seizure order. The seizure provision applies in, at best, a narrow set of circumstances, and it oddly attempts to protect intangible trade secrets by seizing chattels. Despite procedural safeguards, the seizure provision also enables anti-competitive misuse.

More generally, the fact-based disputes that inevitably must be resolved in trade secret litigation make trade secrets an especially poor basis for ex parte actions. As a …

Reflections On The Way We Were Raised: Socialization Within A Same-Sex Family, Allison Jendry

Master's Theses and Doctoral Dissertations

Previous research on same-sex couples with children acknowledges that their parenting issues are similar to and yet different from their heterosexual counterparts. The literature does not examine, in an in-depth fashion, the challenges that same-sex parents face and how such challenges affect the lives of their families and relationships. This research examines the extent that same-sex parents reflect "traditional" family norms and behaviors, and how they socialize their children within the debate surrounding same-sex relationships. The author conducted and analyzed in-depth qualitative interviews from seven same-sex couples with children under the age of eighteen in the Southeastern Michigan area. It …

A dynamic development of media-related digital technologies has been observed throughout recent decades. These phenomena are conducive to significant social, economic, political and legal transformations. The development of digital media has led to the creation of many new categories of transfers and modifications of traditional communication patterns.

The legal status of personalized media is surrounded by many doubts. This paper focuses on analyzing the legal rules defining the formal …

Legal Status Of Connected Tv On The Basis Of The Broadcasting Act Of 29th December 1992, Tomasz Zdzikot

internetowy Kwartalnik Antymonopolowy i Regulacyjny (internet Quarterly on Antitrust and Regulation)

Growing convergence of media leads to far-reaching changes in the manner of reception of content offered through various communication channels. Convergence also connects service providers which used to operate completely separately and under different legal regimes. This issue is a source of many doubts from the point of view of the regulatory framework, incompatible with highly advanced and innovative services. The development of hybrid systems, combining television and the Internet, makes it necessary to attempt to assign market facts to binding law – key among them, within media services, is the Broadcasting Act of 29th December 1992.
