Atrial fibrillation designation with micro-Raman spectroscopy and scanning acoustic microscope

Scientific Reports, 2022
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is diagnosed with the electrocardiogram, which is the gold standard in clinics. However, sufficient arrhythmia monitoring takes a long time, and many of the tests are made in only a few seconds, which can lead arrhythmia to be ...

Functional Differentiation of Type II and Type I Collagen Articular Models in Synovial Fluid Film Formation and Recombinant Equine Lubricin Retention

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Collagen II coatings support the formation of synovial fluid nanofilms, while collagen I coatings do not. Both bind recombinant equine lubricin similarly. These findings may help explain articular cartilage surface joint dysfunction, inform biomaterial design for synovial joint repair, and expand on lubricin‐based osteoarthritis therapies.

A Lamb wave lens for acoustic microscopy [PDF]

IEEE Transactions on Ultrasonics, Ferroelectrics and Frequency Control, 1992
In a conventional scanning acoustic microscope the excited leaky modes contribute significantly to the high contrast obtained in the images. However, all such modes exist simultaneously, and the interpretation of the images is not straightforward, especially in layered media.

Reviving the sound of a 150-year-old insect: The bioacoustics of Prophalangopsis obscura (Ensifera: Hagloidea).

PLoS ONE, 2022
Determining the acoustic ecology of extinct or rare species is challenging due to the inability to record their acoustic signals or hearing thresholds.

Acoustic microscopy of surface cracks

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series A, Mathematical and Physical Sciences, 1986
Abstract The uniqueness of the acoustic microscope lies in its ability to image the way in which acoustic waves interact with the elastic properties of a specimen with microscopic resolution. A dominant role in the contrast achieved is played by Rayleigh waves that are excited in the surface of the specimen.

Hydrogel‐Based 3D‐Printed Anthropomorphic Breast Phantom for Emulating Mechanical and Dielectric Properties of Mammary Tissue. Applications in Microwave Imaging

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A 3D‐printable breast phantom is developed using patient‐derived MRI data and hydrogels that replicate the dielectric properties of healthy and cancerous tissues. Mechanical and dielectric characterization confirm its suitability for microwave imaging.

Modification of Olive Leaves’ Surface by Ultrasound Cavitation. Correlation with Polyphenol Extraction Enhancement

Applied Sciences, 2020
We investigated the impact of ultrasound at 20 kHz on olive leaves to understand how acoustic cavitation could increase polyphenol extraction. Application of ultrasound to whole leaf from 5 to 60 min enabled us to increase extraction from 6.96 to 48.75 ...

Acoustic microscopy of ferroelectric ceramics

Journal of Materials Science, 1982
Ferroelectric ceramics have been observed in an acoustic microscope. The images demonstrate the ability of the microscope to image elastic properties and to penetrate opaque layers.
