Adipose Stem Cells and the Celution (TM) System

Just recently, a clinical trial has been done to investigate the possibility of using adipose stem cells as a form of effective therapy for heart problem patients. What is more interesting is how they obtain the adipose tissue. The trail by Cytori Therapeutics utilized a system called the Celution (TM) System. This system is able to perform complex tasks that "releases stem and regenerative cells locked within adipose tissue". The system will then extract the cells via liposuction-like procedure. By doing so, they are able to obtain patient specific cells to be used.
