    Abstract: An ultrasound scanning system includes an ultrasound scanner, a trained spare recovery neural network and a super resolution image generator. The ultrasound scanner views a patient after intravenous injection of microbubbles and then generates a sequence of ultrasound images. The sequence of ultrasound images is formed of a sequence of B-mode ultrasound images and a sequence of contrast enhanced ultrasound images corresponding to the B-mode ultrasound images. The trained sparse recovery neural network is trained on synthesized images of point sources and generates, for at least one image of the sequence of contrast-enhanced ultrasound images, a super-resolved image of locations of the microbubbles in that image. The super resolution image generator receives an output of the trained sparse recovery neural network and generates therefrom a super-resolved image of a microvasculature through which the microbubbles flowed.

    Abstract: A quantum computing system includes a first resonator couplable to a first alkali atom, a second resonator couplable to a second alkali atom, and lasers for trapping, cooling, and manipulating the first alkali atom and the second alkali atom. Detectors detect a presence of the trapped first alkali atom and the trapped second alkali atom, and a processor is configured to receive at least one input signal from at least one of the detectors, the input signal indicating a presence of the trapped first alkali atom and the trapped second alkali atom, and, based on the received input, control at least some of the lasers to manipulate at least one of the trapped first alkali atom and the trapped second alkali atom to thereby generate photonic qubits using the trapped first alkali atom or generate entanglement between photonic qubits transmitted to the trapped second alkali atom.

    Abstract: Combined treatment for cancer is provided. Accordingly, there is provided a method of selecting or determining therapeutic efficacy of a combination of agents for the treatment of cancer in a subject in need thereof, the method comprising: (i) culturing a cancerous tissue of the subject in an ex-vivo organ culture (EVOC) in the presence of a combination of an anti-cancer agent and an additional agent, said additional agent is inhibiting expression and/or activity of a target conferring innate resistance to said anti-cancer agent or increasing expression and/or activity of a target conferring innate sensitivity to said anti-cancer agent; and (ii) determining an anti-cancer effect of the combination on the tissue, wherein responsiveness of the tissue to the combination indicates the combination is efficacious for the treatment of the cancer in the subject. Also provided are methods of treating cancer with a combination of agent wherein cancerous tissue obtained from the subject demonstrates responsiveness to the combination of agents in an ex-vivo organ culture (EVOC).
