TRANSPLANTATION DEVICE AND METHOD OF USE

摘要

Embodiments of the present disclosure relates to an implantable structure and a two stage method for cell and/or tissue transplantation. The implantable structure is configured to promote vascularization prior to cell and/or tissue transplantation, thereby allowing for implanted cells and/or tissues to have increased viability. In some embodiments, oxygen sensitive dyes can be used to determine levels of vascularization of the device.
