A system forms a cardiac conduction block at a location in a heart of a patient without substantially ablating cardiac tissue. The system includes a delivery system coupled to a source of material that is substantially non-ablative with respect to cardiac tissue. The delivery system delivers the material to the location, and the material at the location forms a conduction block without ablating the cardiac cells there. The material may include living cells, such as for example skeletal myocytes, and/or may include a non-living matter such as biopolymers such as a fibrin glue agent, or collagen agents. An expandable member with needle assembly is used to deliver the material so as to form a non-ablative circumferential conduction block at a location where a pulmonary vein extends from an atrium.

A product state display system operates so that a person who looks at a pseudo living matter can easily understand the state of an industrial product at first glance in the case where the state of the product is represented by displaying the pseudo living matter. The pseudo living matter displayed on a display device shows both the “aging state” corresponding to the “progress state of time-dependent deterioration” of the industrial product within an endurance period and the facial expression corresponding to a “temporary state” of the industrial product. Accordingly, it is possible for a person who looks at the pseudo living matter to quickly and easily understand two states (progress state and temporary state) of the industrial product with just one glance.

Pulsed excitation light including a wavelength that can excite a fluorescent material contained in living matter is generated. The fluorescence lifetime of the fluorescent material is longer than or equal to 4.8 nanoseconds. A predetermined position in the living matter is illuminated with the pulsed excitation light. Further, light including fluorescence emitted from the fluorescent material excited by illumination with the pulsed excitation light is received. The lifetime of the fluorescence included in the received light is calculated by time-resolving the intensity of the fluorescence. Further, the oxygen concentration of the living matter is measured based on the lifetime.
