Systems and methods for providing a view of a digital slide image. The packet-switched network control portion includes plural circuit connection portions 37, 38 which can be connected to plural circuits, plural CODECs 34 having different compression ratios for enabling real-time type data transmission, and a storage data processing portion 32 for enabling store-and-forward type data transmission. The attached bridging segments are spaced apart from one another and the resulting space between them, termed a wound bridge area, has a thickness substantially less than that of the padding assembly at the first bridging segment or that of the other bridging segment. By notifying the user ID to the mobile communication system, activation and inactivation are controlled. The flexible membrane and the base cooperate to at least partially define a venting chamber and a fluid channel fluidly connected to the venting chamber.
