The techniques and equipment of the invention collectively minimize scaffold collapse, compression or physical damage to the organ as well as afford the advantages of significant maintenance of the initial natural structural and biochemical attributes of the organ or tissue. The invention is particularly useful in organ and tissue transplantation and repair.
